virtuemart google analytics with ppc

Good morning today we needed to add google analytics to a virtuemart joomla store. Heres how we done it.

Over on joomlacode.org Matthieu Barbe did a great job of creating a google analytics plugin. His plugin will work on every page. It shows the generic google analytics code for normal pages and for the shopping cart finish/confirmation will track a users order, price, items etc.

Visit joomlacode.org to download the original mod_gavirtuemart.

I have requested to join the project, but until that goes through ill post my modifications to the module here.

The module had a bug in several queries with user_info_id using the default or wrong id when a different shipping address is used.

Our SEO consultant Scott Orth for this project recommended setting up google PPC conversion code. To make life easy I added some settings and template for ppc.php to show only on the order thank you/confirmation page.

This is one of my first actual joomla module posts so let me know if it works, or doesn't.

IPTV is the most futuristic service of modern technology. You just put your device with an internet connection and enjoy all your favorite shows. Also if you got the IPTV reseller panel with the best service from an international IPTV service provider that might be the best choice for you.
