How did you hear about us (vQmod)

This extension adds a compulsory "how did you hear about us" field into the register page (and register on checkout) for the customer to fill in when creating an account

This mod will also add the info in the admin end so that you can see how they found / heard about you.

VQMOD REQUIRED FOR THIS MOD TO FUNCTION

Custom modification will be done if requested.

Without this extension, you would have to manually edit some core files! Ouch! and you wouldn't know how people found out about your site.

This extension will remove the need to do this, as all you will need to do is drag and drop to install, no files are overwritten, only new files are created but does require vQmod.
Now supports 1.5.x

Latest version is 1.1.0

how did you find us mod:

Good. I think I saw about 5 threads on this in the past month. I will bookmark this to shoot people the link.

Is there a way that this ext. can be modified to allow an input field to ask the customer what they searched when choosing google. Reason being is that I know must users are from google anyhow from analytics. I can also track most conversions.

However, I notice a lot of our customers use google search to find us first time around and then simply search our company name to commit to purchasing once they've shopping around! Tracking this latter part is loss data I can't account for.

Cheers.

Would it be possible to include that field if they are using the "guest checkout" and not registering?
Maybe that would defeat the purpose of the "guest checkout" by asking for more info but its not really
anything personal?

Should link it to the store url

Hi,

Does this work with 1.5.3.1? I have purchased it and made the changes in sql and checked that it is in vqmod.
When I go to create a new user, the 'how did you hear about us' option isnt there.
When I look into customer details the option isnt there either?

PLease help?

I don't think it defeats the purpose of guest checkout. Understanding where your customers come from is key to any companies marketing stratagey.

Therefore, I'd very much welcome this addition.
