Which marketing brings in paying customers?
Every ad platform takes credit for the same customer. Google, Meta and your email tool can each claim one booking, and they cannot all be right. You need one count you can trust.

How WordPress and Zendesk records line up
WordPress and Zendesk share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in WordPress pages can be read against what Zendesk recorded in the same hours.
What revenue attribution uses from each
Revenue attribution needs a way to connect a touchpoint to a payment.
From WordPress that means the page URL each conversion started on. From Zendesk it means tickets per customer set against revenue.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.
Zendesk is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
WordPress on its own
WordPress knows what is published and when it changed. Without analytics beside it, it has no idea which pages bring in work.
Timing. WordPress stamps the publish and modified date on every post and page, which marks exactly when content changed.
Access. The WordPress REST API with an application password.
Zendesk on its own
Zendesk sees the complaint and how it was handled. It cannot see what the customer is worth or whether they bought again.
Timing. Zendesk timestamps every ticket, reply and status change.
Access. The Zendesk Support API with a read-only token.
