Web Tracking Code – This area is available for customers who use the Booking Engine provided by BookingCenter in order to track website customers, analyze a ROI ('return on investment') for your SEO/SEM, or simply getting an analysis of your 'look to book' ratio. This Web Tracking code won't work for customers who use XML interfaces to our system, either those designed by their webmaster, or any of the Booking Engine products that interface to BookingCenter (such as BookingSuite, Odysys, GuestCentric, etc). If you are using an XML interface to our system, ask that provider to provide a similar function for you.
The basic Web Tracking Code and the Web Tracking Code Last Page are detailed in a help article we provide here. Have your webmaster or SEO/SEM provider read this article. While BookingCenter support staff will offer to paste Web Tracking code into your BookingCenter product, we cannot troubleshoot its success/failure for you less we were hired as the Booking Engine developer making your customized Booking Engine. What we advise is to add a User in BookingCenter to allow your SEO/SEM provider to login to BookingCenter to directly add this code to your Booking Engine settings area. This means he/she can 'tweek' the code until she gets it right for your system.
SEO/SEM consultants need to read the article posted here in order to get a technical understanding of how the Web Tracking and Last Page code work. Further, we advise your SEO/SEM consultant make TEST bookings before you accept that their 'tracking' is working. Failure to perform test bookings is a frequent cause of frustration for our customers, so do not bypass that step.
