Conversion rate

Plain English definition

Share of a clear baseline group—visits, sessions, leads—that finished the goal you named.

Turns traffic into judgment: same spend, weaker conversion, thinner business.

120 purchases ÷ 6,000 sessions → ~2%.

End-to-end conversion from first funnel step population to completing customers.

Goal completions divided by landing visits for the slice you counted.
