Simulate a Google Ads Click to Test Tracking Numbers

Tracking numbers are displayed based on the marketing source of the visitor. To simulate a Google Ads click, add ?gclid=test&wc_clear=true to the end of your URL.

The GCLID parameter is the unique parameter that allows us to know the click came from Google Ads and wc_clear=true clears any prior WhatConverts attribution on your browser.

Example: http://www.YourWebsite.com/?gclid=test&wc_clear=true

You can also add campaign, content and keyword variables to the test URL:

Example: http://www.YourWebsite.com/?gclid=test&wc_clear=true&campaign=test-campaign&content=ad-test&keyword=keyword-test

After simulating a Google Ads click, place a test call to the tracking number you see on your website. Log into the WhatConverts profile you've set up to track calls in. Click "Leads in the top-menu. In the Lead Manager, review your test call lead data.

Click "View Lead" when hovering over the Lead to view the full Lead Details.
