5. Link Google Analytics with Google Ads
(Note: Google Ads was formerly known as Google Adwords).
Once you have integrated Bookeo with Google Analytics, you can link Google Analytics and Google Ads conversions. Click here for more information.
Tip: Bookeo also supports a direct integration with Google Ads, which makes it very easy to monitor the conversions of your Ads campaigns. However this is only available if you use Google Analytics 4. For more information, see tutorial to integrate Bookeo with Google Analytics 4.
6. Set up goals in Google Analytics
You can optionally set up "goals" in Analytics, to track when specific events occur. The most common goal to track from Bookeo is when a customer has completed a booking. In this case, simply set up a "destination" goal, with the Destination field set to /bookeo/booking-confirmed
