Form and button analytics help you track how visitors interact with clickable elements on your website. This data reveals conversion rates and helps optimize your site's performance.

Understanding Conversion Rates

Conversion rate is calculated using this formula: (Converted Unique Views ÷ Unique Views) x 100

For example, if a visitor clicks a button three times in one visit, it counts as:

  • 3 button clicks
  • 1 converted unique view

Tracked Elements

Included:

  • Button Blocks
  • Newsletter Blocks
  • Form Blocks
  • Promo Pop-ups
  • Cover Pages

Not Tracked:

  • Navigation Buttons
  • Social Media Icons
  • Donation Forms
  • Payment Forms
