Google Analytics and conversion goals

[swduncan]

Is anyone using conversion goals with Google Analytics? Is it even possible, meaning is there a thank you url or the like that can be used to track a sale?

Thanks!

I'm just tracking how many people go to the shopping cart page. If they have gotten that far, chances are that they will complete the purchase.

Now, if only they had a blocking cookie so my data wouldn't include my visits, I'd be happy. I know I can block me entire house, but I want to see my DH and kids' visits.

Bear - thanks for responding!

Sounds like you're doing what I'm talking about. What url are you using for the shopping cart page?

I'm using

https://www. printfection. com/ cartesianbear ?store_page= cart

Take out the spaces and use your store's name where "cartesianbear" is.

I got this page by navigating to it, copying the URL from my browser and pasting it into the Conversion goals section.

Now, back to looking at my Analytics page -- I've gotten a lot more traffic recently, and i'm trying to figure out where it came from, and what I should do to turn it into sales.
