Setting up Goal by Event.
-
Hi guys,
I've need to set gup goal to track Banner Views and Clicks on my website based on the Event. I've set up the Event like this:
| |
Anh the page is http://www.danhgiaxe.com/so-sanh/
When I se the event on goal I filled like below:
Category/Equal to/quangcaoBIG
Action/Regular expression/bannerID_\d
Label/Equal to/view
I do the same for tracking Click. But when verifying, the conversion is 0%. Anyone help me please!
Tks a lot!

Hi Quang, I was looking at the actual page and the event is firing, see the screenshot here: http://screencast.com/t/LrWJzTmpt
I'm not sure what's going on but it's strange that you can't even get the event label to fire on it's own - that rules out anything wrong with the regex.
So when you go into the events report, are there events being logged?
-
Here is the screen shot. And I've tried firing the label view but it's still 0%

Hi Quang, can you share a screenshot of the segment you're trying to create, that way I can see the regex. Also as Sajeet said you'll need to use on click to track people clicking the banners not just viewing.
I'd start trying to debug by simplifying the report. What happens if you just try to see how many times the event label 'view' has been fired? Does that still show as 0%?

Event which the View tracking it doesn't work. I've tried changing the regex as above but the conversion's still been the same.

There are two issues with your tracking -
- The code is correct for tracking views to the banner, however its not correct if you want to track the clicks. For clicks, you will have to add onClick function.
- The regex is incorrect. The correct regex is bannerID(.*). Suggest you use regexpal.com to test your regular expressions.
Hope this helps.
