  • Tony McCreath: A goal for every page makes no sense. Could you explain what they are trying to get out of it?

    Could you clarify drop-offs. The data is probably there but just called something else, like bounce rate, exits or funnel abandonments.

    Sales funnels can be tracked via a sales goal with funnel steps defined in it. There are also multi-channel funnels in the conversions section.
  • Rahul Dixit: +Tony McCreath ; Thanks for your reply.

    1. My clients wants to know drop offs for website pages or you can say exit rate.
    2. My client wants to know who fired add to cart button on his website. ;

    I am sorry I am not good in setting funnels. Is this possible if you can please provide me an easy tutorial to setup sales funnels?
  • Dave Elliott: 20 Goals per view. Just create a new view and you will be able to make more goals.

  • Tony McCreath: The Behaviour->Site Content section shows page data and exit rates.

    Setting up goal based funnels is very dependent on your system. I'm sure there are many tutorials on the web that can hold your hand.

    You probably want to make the "add to cart" button cause a fake pageview which you can include in the goal funnel. It might be simpler if your "add to cart" always goes to the same page, like the cart. Then just track people going to the cart as a funnel step.
