Measurement / Glossary definition

Conversion

A visitor action the business has deliberately defined as meaningful progress toward an outcome.

Operational meaning

A conversion might be a qualified form submission, completed booking, purchase, call, or another valuable action. Primary conversions should reflect business outcomes more closely than incidental clicks.

Common misunderstanding

A button click is not necessarily a completed outcome, and more conversions are not better if lead quality collapses.
