Form submit tracking

Count successful form submits using a tracked redirect to a hosted thank-you page.

Track form submits without scripts.

You set your form’s redirect after submit to a version-specific t.swtchd.io/... link. That redirect lands on a swtchd-hosted thank-you page (f.swtchd.io/...).

When to use this

Use form submit tracking when your real conversion is:

  • lead capture

  • waitlist signup

  • booking request

  • any form with a success redirect

What you need

  • A test with 2+ versions of your forms

  • A form tool that supports a success URL / redirect URL on submit

  • Redirect should be set per form instance (per page version)

  • If you host the form, don't use swtchd.io thank you page, you can use a tracking link with a redirect to your thank you on the submit button

1) Create the thank-you page in swtchd

In your test setup, go to Step 2: Tracking.

In Form submit tracking (thank-you page):

  • Set a Title (example: Thanks!)

  • Set a short Body (example: Check your inbox in 5 minutes.)

Click Generate Tracking Links.

You’ll get:

  • A hosted thank-you page (preview): https://f.swtchd.io/<id>

  • One submit redirect per version:

    • Version A: https://t.swtchd.io/<shortIdA>

    • Version B: https://t.swtchd.io/<shortIdB>

2) Paste the redirect into your form tool (per version)

In your form tool, find one of these settings:

  • Redirect URL

  • Success URL

  • After submit redirect

  • Thank you page URL

Then configure it like this:

  • On the form embedded on Version A page: redirect to Version A t.swtchd.io/...

  • On the form embedded on Version B page: redirect to Version B t.swtchd.io/...

Flow after a submit:

  1. Form submits successfully

  2. Form redirects to t.swtchd.io/...

  3. swtchd logs a conversion (only while your test is live)

  4. Visitor lands on the thank-you page f.swtchd.io/...

3) Launch the test

Go to Step 3: Review & launch and click Go live.

Tracking events only count while the test is live. The redirect links still work forever.

How it shows up in Results

  • The submit redirect counts as a unique click.

  • Click rate becomes your submit-rate proxy: unique clicks / unique views.

Tips for cleaner tests

  • Keep thank-you copy short.

  • Say what happens next (email, download, calendar, etc.).

  • Track submits (macro) and 1 key click (micro) if needed.
