How do I track where visitors came from that converted to sales?

    Is there a way where I can use my analytics account to track the referrer url where the user came from that ended up in a sales conversion on my website. I am not referring to adwords campaigns but just organic searches or other websites (not PPC) that I advertise on?

    Right now I can only track adwords conversions (shows up in my adwords account).

    There must be a way to track organic search conversions or other advertising that I purchase thats not PPC.

    Basically how do I set up something where I can track whether visitors from my youtube channel or certain organic keyword searches converted better?


    Any help is sincerely appreciated

    Thanks

    I think you need to set up an analytics code to a page that you think will be the "dealing/transaction" takes place (this is to monitor goals/conversion)

    Aira is right, once you have this setup then go to Traffic Sources > All Traffic Sources then click on the Goal Conversion tab. That will let you see conversion rate for various traffic sources.

    just set your code up in a "thank you" page where the visitor will go after he had done a certain action (such as buying your product).
    please make sure that this page is not a "published" page where visitors can navigate from your index page.
