The path to a purchase for today's online shoppers is rarely straightforward. People interact with a variety of ads along the way. For example, they may search for your product in the morning at home, then do a more specific search when they get to the office later in the day.
For advertisers, this can make measuring conversions complex. It’s important to see a full picture of your customer’s path to purchase to determine which keywords and ads drive the most conversions.
Over the next few months, we'll be rolling out many new features to give you a clearer picture of your conversions, your customer's path to purchase and your return-on-ad spend (ROAS). Up first on our list of new features are Cross-account Conversion Tracking and Cross-account Search Funnels.

With Cross-account Conversion Tracking, you can now measure conversions across all your accounts with a single tag and a simple setup.
Cross-account Conversion Tracking helps you:
- Tag your site quickly and easily. Create one snippet of code to use across all of your accounts. This makes it easier and faster to tag your site and may also improve site load time.
- Get more accurate conversion reporting. A single tag ensures that a conversion is only counted once across your accounts. With the cross-account tag, you’ll see assist conversions for all AdWords clicks leading up to a conversion, not just the clicks within one account. This can provide a holistic view of your advertising, and a better understanding of how keywords work together across accounts to drive conversions.
- Track new accounts with ease. When you add a new AdWords account to your My Client Center account (MCC), you can enable Conversion Tracking with the check of a box. In addition, you no longer have to re-define all of your conversions when you create a new account.

- Top Conversion Paths report: Know which combinations of keywords across your accounts drive the most conversions.
- Assisted Conversions report: See upper funnel keywords across your accounts that might not be receiving enough value in your attribution measurement.
