How to set Google Analytics Goals
To start setting up your goals:
Go to your Google Analytics standard reports
Click on the “Admin” button in the top right
Click on “Goals”
From one of the Goal sets, click “+ Goal” (goal sets are just a way for you to easily group goals) to set up a new goal.
First name your goal. This name will pop up all over Google Analytics so make sure the name is clear enough that you can instantly remember what’s being tracked.
There are four type of goal
1) URL Destination Goals
2)Visit Duration Goals
3) Pages/Visit Goals
4) Event Goals
1. URL Destination Goals
URL destination goals keep track of specific URLs. Each time someone goes to that URL, they trigger the goal. These are ideal for thank you pages, confirmation pages, and PDFs.
2. Visit Duration Goals
This one’s pretty simple. You can use this to track how many people stay on your site for a certain amount of time. Also, you can set the goal to track every visit that’s below a specific amount of time. This gets super useful for support sites that are trying to help customers answer their question as fast as possible.
3. Pages/Visit Goals
Pages/visit is another easy goal type to set up and similar to visit duration goals. Instead of tracking how much time people spend on your site, this goal tracks the number of pages each visitor sees before they leave. Once again, it’s ideal for customer support sites.
4. Event Goals
Event goals are a little bit more complicated because you have to set up the events. Once you have the events ready to go, you can easily select any event as a goal.
Similar to virtual pageviews, you have to add a bit of JavaScript to the element that you want to track. This tells Google Analytics when an event has occurred. The Google Analytics Event Tracking Guide will show you exactly how to do this.
You can track just about anything you want with Google Analytics events such as:
External links
Downloads
Time spent watching videos
Social media buttons
Widget usage
