Try out analytics settings>> profile settings>>Goal Settings. Hope it helps you.

 

yes u need to install code properly then go to goal section where add your URL with some info..

 

Hi, I do not understand goals. Are they to set a target i want. "10,000 visitors per month" or are they for setting pages on your site that i want to track exactly how people navigate to that page? Say the checkout page and listing all the pages people visit on the way to the check out page?
Cheers. Eunan.

 

Im wondering how to do this too.

 

Is it possible to set goals like how many people register on a forum?

 

Nope, Analytics looks how many visitors visited your website. It is domain based. It doesn't looks inside your website's coding and databases. So it can't do the job. But you can get a plug-in(if available) for your forum to do that. For example, I use phpbb statistics for my phpbb3 based forum.

 

you have to find your targeted market first. in google analytics you can find the option of Geo targeting visitors. you can target your goal on your targeted market. because the targeted visitors increase your sales.

 

I think danmon option is best option u have to understant how to set goal,but nowadays new version of google analytics first u ca understand how to set goal in google analytic old version then u move on new version.

 

Google Analytics will help to track the website’s performance on the search engines. You can also notice that how much visitors are coming to your site.
