Joost de Valk has a referrer tracking add-on available on his site at <a href="http://www.yoast.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoast.com</a> and the Gravity Forms Directory Add-On in the WordPress repository also has this capability as one of it's features. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/keyword-tracking#post-12830 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 17:00:07 +0000 Jez 12830@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I cannot see any keyword tracking features in Gravity Forms, which is kind of surprising as a lot of us must be using it for lead generation forms?</p> <p>What I would like is two fields available for entries:</p> <p>Referer &gt; The HTTP referer to the site<br /> Keyword &gt; Extract keywords from referer strings from search engines</p> <p>The problem with HTTP referer is that it is reset on internal clicks, so, when a visitor arrives from Google the HTTP referer is something like:</p> <p>google.com?q=some-query-string</p> <p>But when a user clicks a link inside your site, this overrites the original external referer.</p> <p>So, for this tracking to work, the HTTP referer must be put into the session ONLY if the session variable does not already exist. Then the original external referer is preserved.</p> <p>The keyword can be extracted from the query string, there are various examples of this being done in PHP if you google them.</p> <p>The Intended Result:</p> <p>When a user completes a form on my site I can see:</p> <p>1) The search engine page that sent them<br /> 2) The keyword that they used</p> <p>Thus, the reporting within gravity can allow you to focus on keywords that are converting.</p> <p>Of course 1) would also work for other referring sites besides search engines.</p> <p>This would be easy to implement and very powerful for lead generators trying to understand where their conversions are coming from. </p>
