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.

We setup a new Google Analytics account for the new domain but the old one is still there
Hi, Our company has changed their domain almost a year ago and after the migration, they created a new Google Analytics account rather than changing the address on the existing GA account. Now I can still see that Google indexing the old domain. Just wanted to ask if we can still tell Google that we've changed the domain on the old one? Or, should we just go ahead and use the new one and delete the old one? Very confusing, but our traffic is constantly dropping although we rank for on the first page for tracked keywords, just want to understand if there is a connection between the organic traffic droppings and not telling Google we've changed the domain. Thanks! NJt7vbJ

How is Google Analytics defining page depth?
We run two websites and as part of our KPIs we are treating those who visit 3 or more pages of our website as a client served. As a digital team we are not convinced that this is the best metric to use as the improvements we are making to the sites mean that people are able to find the information quicker. Additionally other organisations including forums etc link to us so those users will get the info they need in one click. What I would like to know is how Google calculates page depth in GA. Are they treating the landing page as ground zero and then when users clicks a link they go one page deep? Or is the landing page, page depth 1 . Is page depth a measure of how many clicks a user needs to find their information?

Save a Google Analytics account
We recently started with a client who has Google Analytics already installed on their current site, but they have no idea the account login for it? Is there anyway to transfer ownership of this just based on the code?

Google Analytics Content Experiments don't deliver 50/50?

RE: Google Analytics keywords metric and appropriate keywords
Greetings, When running Google Analytics' keyword report, I see that the over 85% of the top 100 keywords used to find us include a word in our name (Eagle's Nest Foundation and Camp -- with "eagle" or "eagle's nest" being the most frequent) or the name of one of our programs. Does this mean that most folks searching for summer camps in North Carolina already know about us and that we therefore need to optimize for broader keywords, to cast a wider net for folks who don't already know about us? Thanks, Dave
