Online advertising is vital these days for any business. Tracking your ad campaigns whether it’s through click -to-call, pay-per-call, and Tracking Numbers search engines, banners, or newsletter ads is imperative to your ultimate success.

Tracking Phone call will provide with information such as time of call, target number called, length of call, source of call and even which keywords are generating phone calls.

Huge amount of time, money and effort is spent on your ads. Without tracking their performance, you will have no idea why your campaign ultimately succeeds or fails or what is working with your campaign and what isn’t.

Various tracking tools are available in the market to meet your business needs. Aside from simply tracking sales, these tools can also track actions that visitors take while they are on your website, such as subscribing to your online newsletter, trying out your free offers, joining your mailing list for website updates, and many other actions that a visitor may have taken without actually making a purchase.

What You Should Be Tracking

One of the most important items to track is the Return on Investment (ROI), which takes into account all your costs and compares that to the profit you made from the ad to come up with a percentage that indicates how successful your ad has been..

There are other multitude of aspects of your ad’s performance that you should be tracking. There are some things that are essential for you to know in order to judge whether your ad campaign is effective.

The main statistics you should track are:

  • Number of calls
  • Number of Sales
  • Number of Actions
  • Total Value of Sales
  • Cost of Campaign
  • Total Profit
  • Cost Per call
  • Cost Per Sale
  • Cost Per Action
  • Return On Investment

Monitor closely the success of any campaign and make intelligent decisions about continuation of either the ad or the particular media outlet that is being used. 

Though branding campaigns are still important, accomplishing both the branding mission as well as a call to action mission in every campaign is now more important than ever.  Advertising money simply cannot be wasted on “feel good” ad campaigns.  Return on Investment (ROI) is a requirement.  Without effective Ad-Campaign Tracking of all forms of responses to a given campaign there is no way to insure you are meeting the ROI goals that you have established.
