  • Document the current conversion volume and its last stable value for cross-domain tracking.
  • Document the dates, attribution window and conversion definition for cross-domain tracking in this practical guide.
  • Document one cross-domain tracking cause the evidence can prove or reject.

What to check

For a clearer next move, start with what changed before refreshing creatives. Compare cross-domain tracking, CAPI and the business result.

Before deciding, connect every warning sign to a source that can confirm or reject it. If the numbers do not say what to do next, verify the input before editing.

  • Conversion value is incomplete when reviewing cross-domain tracking as a practical guide.
