My company turned on Conversion Tracking for their Google AdWords campaigns, I put the required javascript into the body of the Thank You page people end up at after purchasing one of our products. But when i load that page it just shows a blank line where the google image/text should be.
<snip>
The google bit should be showing up under the customer information services boxes, bottom of main body of page.
here is the script i'm using:
<!-- Google Conversion Code -->
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
google_conversion_id = <snip>
google_conversion_language = "en_US";
google_conversion_format = "1";
google_conversion_color = "FFFFFF";
if (Total) {
google_conversion_value = Total;
}
google_conversion_label = "Purchase";
-->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<img height=1 width=1 border=0 src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/<snip>/?value=Total&label=Purchase&script=0">
</noscript>Any ideas what is happening?

AlanCe, you'll only see the text block if you have clicked on your ad (sometime in the last 30 days), and then have navigated to your conversion page.
This is a relatively recent change, made at the request of many advertisers, lots of whom made the request on this very Forum.

Other than clicking on one's own ad -- and paying a click charge -- how can one see how the site stats text appears on the page?
cline, I'm not aware of another way actually. I'll confirm this with the tech folks and post again later - but at this point I'm about 98% sure.

So, this is now confirmed. An advertiser must in fact click on their ad, then navigate to their conversion page in order to see the text block.
