Conversion Tracking ID for Google Ads: Everything You Need to Know to Optimize Your Campaigns

If you're running Google Ads campaigns without setting up Conversion Tracking ID, you're essentially driving blind. You may get clicks, but you’ll never know which ones are actually making you money.

What Is a Conversion Tracking ID?

A Conversion Tracking ID is a unique identifier provided by Google Ads that allows advertisers to monitor and measure what happens after a user interacts with an ad.

This ID is used in conjunction with a Conversion Label to track specific events like:

  • Form submissions

  • Purchases

  • Page views or scroll events

  • Button clicks and downloads

When combined, these two allow for full attribution of ad performance.

How to Find It

  1. Go to Google Ads dashboard

  2. Click on Tools & Settings → Conversions

  3. Create a new conversion action

  4. Google will show you:

    • Conversion ID (e.g., AW-1122334455)

    • Conversion Label (e.g., XyZabcDEF123)

These values will be used inside the global site tag (gtag.js) or Google Tag Manager.

Why It Matters

  • Enables accurate attribution

  • Powers Smart Bidding strategies

  • Helps diagnose conversion drops

  • Essential for multi-step funnels and retargeting
