Set Up Your Account
Once your account has been approved and you’ve logged in for the first time, you’ll be guided through a short setup flow. This ensures your account is configured to start tracking leads properly.
Note:
- Time required: 5 - 10 minutes.
- You’ll need: your company details, website URL, and tracking preferences
Step 1: Enter Additional Company Details
Start by confirming the basics of your business.
- Confirm Company Name and Phone Number (already pre-filled).
- Confirm the Company Website where leads will be tracked (already pre-filled).
- Select your industry and, optionally, sub-industry.
- Accept the terms and click “Continue”.
Note: You can track more than one website. Additional websites and profiles can be added later from your Account Settings.
Step 2: Select Marketing Channels
Tell WhatConverts which channels you want to track leads from. This will help us adapt to your tracking needs.
- Choose which channels you’d like to track leads from.
- Click “Continue”.
Tip: You can always add or change channels later in your account settings.
Note: The needed tracking numbers to fulfill your tracking requirements for the channels selected will be automatically created.
Step 3: Set Up Your Tracking Numbers
Now, configure phone numbers for call tracking.
- Select Local or Toll-free numbers.
- Pick your Area Code.
- Enter the Phone Number where calls should be forwarded to (typically the one displayed on your website).
- Optionally, enable “Record all incoming calls (Free)”.
- Click “Continue”.
Note: Local numbers often improve trust and call-through rates, while toll-free numbers can be better for national or multi-region campaigns. Select the option that best matches your audience and business reach.
Step 4: Set Up Your Forms
Connect your forms so submissions are captured as leads.
- Paste the URL of your site with forms to track. Click “Find Forms”.
- WhatConverts will scan your website and automatically detect available forms.
- Select the forms you’d like to track.
- Click “Continue”.
Note: If you don’t see a form listed, you can always add it later from your profile by going to Tracking > Forms.
Step 5: Install the WhatConverts Tracking Code
Install the tracking code so all your leads are tracked and appropriately attributed.
- Choose whether to install the code yourself or have your developer install it.
- Have my developer install code: Enter their email and we’ll send instructions.
- Install code myself: Choose one of the following options.
- Use WordPress
- Google Tag Manager
- Manual Installation
- Once installed, click Verify Installation or Skip for Now if you’d like to complete this later.
