Conversions
The Conversions report tells you which goals visitors complete and what they're worth, with a top-right toggle between Conversions (primary goals like purchases and signups, showing count, revenue, and average value) and Microconversions (engagement events like add-to-cart, shown by count). Use it to see your top-performing conversion types and total revenue for the selected period.

Tracking Conversions
JavaScript API
Track conversions using the tracker:
// Basic conversion
sealmetrics.conv('purchase');
// Conversion with revenue
sealmetrics.conv('purchase', 99.99);
// Conversion with properties
sealmetrics.conv('purchase', 149.99, {
product_id: 'SKU-123',
category: 'Electronics'
});
Microconversions
Track engagement events:
// Basic microconversion
sealmetrics.micro('add_to_cart');
// Microconversion with properties
sealmetrics.micro('video_play', {
video_id: 'intro-video',
duration: 120
});
See Tracker Documentation for complete implementation guide.

- Each session tracked independently
- Conversion credited to the converting session
