Is there any way around being able to set up 20 goals in Analytics? What if one of my clients want to set up 10 pages with separate actions to track on each page. Will then each actions count as a separate goal? If this is the case, how could I work around creating more than 20 goals? Would I have to look into hiring/buying a third party or separate software?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi!
Yes, it is possible to edit a goal after i has been set up.
-
I do have another question, I see that you can edit a goal. Is it possible to edit the goal with a new action to track?
-
Great thank you
This will help me to be prepared if questions arise from that client. I want to be able to explore different avenues if one suggestion doesn't work.
I appreciate your help.

Honestly, my first suggestion would be to follow Jen's advice in creating another profile within the same Google Analytics account to get access to 20 more goals. You could create a profile for each specific section of the site and/or specific kinds of conversions you are tracking.
Another option would be to use Event Tracking rather than using goals in this scenario. Check out https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/eventTrackerGuide for more info.

Thank you
Are there any that you would recommend assuming that I I want track form submissions, downloads, etc...? Can analytics be integrated into the separate tools?
-
Google Analytics Premium is the paid option and it only costs a cool $150,000 a year. There are other conversion tracking tools out there that are free/much cheaper, but it depends on what kinds of things you want to track (ecommerce, phone calls, form submissions, newsletter signups, etc).
-
Thank you
I appreciate your help and feedback.
-
I believe you get more goal spots in the premium version. You can have as many profiles as you want in GA without any issues.

Thank you Jenn -
So I would have to create a new account (duplicating the profile) using the same information as the original. You say "free", are there paid options? Duplicating the account will not skew any metrics?
-
The only "free" way around the 20, is to simply duplicate the profile and you have 20 new goal spaces in the new duplicated profile.

Referral issue in Google analytics
We have an eCommerce website that counts paypal as a referral source in Analytics. The site takes people to Paypal to make a payment and then back to the website to a Thank You page once that payment has been made. Due to this, Analytics sees this as a conversion that has come from Paypal, and also records it as a referral source, when we know this is not really the case. This also distorts the data in analytics and prohibits us from clearly seeing which channels sales have come from. Is there anyway in Analytics to include Paypal as a part of the website so that it does not record Paypal as a separate referral website?

In Google Analytics, what is the correct format for excluding traffic from single IP address?
In the past, when we've setup a filter to exclude a single IP address, we just entered the IP address normally. For example, 64.68.82.164. However, I was researching how to exclude a range of IP addresses and found out that I might be using the wrong format to filter a single IP address. Is it supposed to be 64.68.82.164 or 64.68.82.164? Will it still work if it was entered without the escape characters? Thanks in advance Moz community for your assistance!

Google Analytics subdomain ecommerce tracking flatlines :-(
Buongiorno from 19 degrees C wetherby UK 🙂 This website http://www.philpotts.co.uk/ contains a shop sub domian @ http://shop.philpotts.co.uk/. I configured the site Ga analytics code to include the subdomain (see below code). I had to do this as i was getting refferal data from the actuall subdomain. But after following the instructions on p117 of cutroni's ga book things have gone wrong, mainly now eCommerce data has dissapeared 😞 So my question is please: "Why has installing the GA code above caused eCommerce tracking to suddenly go dead?" Grazie tanto,

Google Analytics: Multi channel funnel
Hi 🙂 I have a little problem. In Multi-channel Funnel Overview I see 50 conversions from Paid Search (screenshot 1). But when I click on Assisted Conversion and then choose Paid Search, I see 31 Assisted Conversions and 32 Last Interaction Conversion. (screenshot 2) So my question is - why the number of converstions in overview (50) is different than number in Assisted Conversions (assisted or last interaction conversion, or both together)? Probably, the answer is so simply, but I can found out it! 🙂 thanks a lot. X6UihL7.png lCNsw4T.png
