To set up conversion tracking for a LinkedIn campaign in Webflow without using a thank you page, you can use LinkedIn Insight Tag along with custom code in Webflow. Here's a step-by-step guide:
- Get the LinkedIn Insight Tag:
- Log in to your LinkedIn Campaign Manager account and navigate to the "Account Assets" tab.
- Select "Insight Tag" from the drop-down menu.
- Click on "Get Started" and follow the instructions to generate your LinkedIn Insight Tag.
- Copy the LinkedIn Insight Tag:
- Once you have the LinkedIn Insight Tag, copy the entire code snippet.
- Add the LinkedIn Insight Tag to your Webflow project:
- Log in to your Webflow account and open the project where you want to add the LinkedIn Insight Tag.
- Go to the Project Settings by clicking on the gear icon in the left sidebar.
- In the Project Settings, select the "Custom Code" tab.
- Paste the LinkedIn Insight Tag code snippet in the Header Code section.
- Save the changes.
- Track conversions with custom code:
- In Webflow, you can use custom code to track conversions. Instead of redirecting users to a thank you page, you will trigger the conversion event directly using JavaScript.
- Identify the specific action or event on your Webflow site that you want to track as a conversion.
- Add an HTML embed element to the page where the conversion happens.
- In the HTML embed element, write JavaScript code to fire the LinkedIn conversion event when the desired action is completed by the user.
- For example, if you want to track form submissions as conversions, you can use JavaScript code like:
```html ``` - Customize the
trackConversion
function to match your specific conversion event and replaceYOUR_PARTNER_ID
with your LinkedIn partner ID.
- Apply the custom code to your Webflow project:
- Go to the page where the conversion event occurs and select the HTML embed element you added earlier.
- In the settings panel, select the "Settings" tab.
- Tick the "Code" box and paste the
trackConversion()
function in the "Code" field. - Save the changes.
By implementing the LinkedIn Insight Tag and custom code in Webflow, you can track conversions for your LinkedIn campaigns without relying on a thank you page. This method allows you to have more flexibility in tracking specific actions and events on your website.
