Tracking external form submissions on your Swipepages landing page is crucial for accurate conversion tracking. This guide will walk you through how to set up external form tracking and record submissions as conversions by redirecting users to a thank you page.
Step 1: Create and Publish Your Pages
Before setting up external form tracking, ensure you have:
A main page where the external form will be embedded.
A thank you page where users will be redirected after form submission.
Both pages should be published and live on the same custom domain for tracking to work correctly.
Step 2: Copy Your Thank You Page URL
Once your thank you page is live, copy its full URL. You’ll need this when configuring external form tracking in Swipepages.
Step 3: Enable External Form Tracking
Open Swipepages and go to your main page’s settings.
Locate the External Form Tracking option.
Enable the feature and paste the thank you page URL into the provided field.
Step 4: Copy the Full Redirect URL
After pasting the thank you page URL, click on “Copy Full Redirect URL.”
This link contains the necessary tracking parameters to ensure conversions are recorded accurately.
Always use this Swipepages-generated URL instead of the direct thank you page URL.
Step 5: Update Your Third-Party Form Settings
In your third-party form provider’s settings, find the field for Redirect URL or Thank You Page URL.
Paste the copied Swipepages redirect URL into this field.
Save your changes to ensure that when a user submits the form, they are redirected with the correct tracking parameters.
Step 6: Test and Verify Tracking
Submit a test form entry on your main page.
Ensure that you are redirected to your Swipepages thank you page.
Go to your Swipepages analytics and check that the form submission has been recorded as a conversion.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can successfully track external form submissions as conversions in Swipepages. This setup ensures accurate analytics and helps you measure the effectiveness of your campaigns.
