First to see what I am talking,(in the old interface) \u00a0about go to Tools &gt; Conversions. Click one of the names of the conversions you have set up. Look to the bottom to Attribution Model. If you\u2019ve done nothing it has defaulted to Last Click. Click Edit and change your conversion model to Position Based. Position Based is my preferred attribution model. Over time you will be able to see keywords in your account that you might have pause that are actually a part of the conversion path. The first click and last click will be weighted to 40% each and the middle clicks will split the remaining 20%. What happens is important for your keyword monitoring. You will start to see keywords that previously in the last click model may not be driving as many conversions as you had thought. Your data drives your decisions in AdWords, put your data to work for you by changing your Attribution Model to the right one for you.
