Definition

What it means

Conversion rate is the number of goal completions divided by the number of visitors, shown as a percentage.

It depends on the audience, the offer and the page, so comparing across different sites can mislead. Track it for each traffic source to see where quality differs.

Why it matters, with an example

A rate that moves tells you whether your offer and pages are earning the visit, before you spend more on traffic.

For example: If 1,000 visitors arrive and 30 sign up, the conversion rate is 3%. Split by source, the same 30 sign-ups can show one channel doing most of the work.
