Tracking important user actions on your site usually involves the help of developers. Even to set up a goal for users clicking a certain button, you need to edit the corresponding page's code. Not every site owner or marketing expert has the programming skills needed to make such changes, or the funds to hire someone to make them. Even if a company has an in-house developer, they are not always available to help set up goals at a moment's notice.

When users are preparing to make a purchase, they often visit sites more than once, often arriving from different sources.

It is important for advertisers to know certain things — some wish to know which ad first motivated a user to consider making a purchase, and others are curious about which one was the final, convincing factor in the user's decision to place an order.

We recently added new attribution models to Yandex.Direct that can provide advertisers with the clarity they are seeking. In this post, you can find out about these and other minor changes to calculation methods.
