Setting goals in Google Analytics
Goals in Google Analytics help you track a specific action on your website, such as filling out a form, completing a purchase, or viewing a specific page. To set goals, go to the “Admin” section of Google Analytics, select “Goals” in the “View” column and click “New Goal”.
Here you can choose one of the goal templates or create your own. You will need to specify the type of goal (such as “Destination”, “Duration”, “Pages/Screens per session” or “Event”) and the details of the goal that suit your needs.
Event tracking
Analysis of conversions
After setting goals and tracking events on your site, Google Analytics allows you to analyze this data to determine conversions. You can view conversion reports in the “Conversions” section of the Google Analytics menu. In particular, you can use reports such as:
- Goals. An overall conversion report that shows the number and percentage of completed goals on your site.
- Multichannel sequences. Report on the interaction of different marketing channels that lead to conversion.
- Traffic. Detailed analysis of traffic sources that contribute to conversion.
- Attribution. Report on the contribution of each channel to the conversion.
Conversion optimization
Conversion optimization involves improving your site and marketing strategies to increase the proportion of visitors who take desired actions. Based on Google Analytics data analysis, you can:
- Identify weak points on your site that hinder conversions and fix them.
- Test different versions of pages or promotional materials to determine the most effective.
- Focus on the most effective marketing channels and abandon less effective ones.
- Set realistic goals and stick to them to monitor your company’s progress.
- Conduct A/B testing. Experiment with different versions of your site, such as changing the design, text or placement of elements, to determine which changes improve conversion.
- Improve site navigation. Make your site easy to navigate so users can find the information they need and take the actions they want faster.
- Create attractive and compelling pages. Use bright and informative headlines, high-quality images and well-structured content to engage your visitors.
- Set up relevant calls to action (CTAs). Provide clear and distinct calls to action on your site so users easily know what is expected of them.
- Apply remarketing. Use remarketing campaigns to engage users who visited your site but did not take the desired action.
