Does a virtual pageview replace a normal pageview?

    Hi,

    The booking process for my website has the same URL for each stage of the checkout, for example:

    Step 1 = example.com/booking
    Step 2 = example.com/booking
    Step 3 = example.com/booking
    Completion = example.com/booking

    I am using virtual pageviews to fire separately on each of these stages. Will these virtual pageviews be added in addition to example.com/booking or will it replace this URL with the virtual pageview (e.g. example.com/step1)?

    I don't want to have double the amount of pageviews tracked for example.com/booking & example.com/step1 (i.e. when someone lands on /step1 it counts as 2 seperate pageviews)

    Thanks

    Hi Geoff,
    No, it won't be reported twice. You can go ahead and implement it
    Cheers! :)
