前几次的WAW聚会我们的嘉宾们多次谈到了GA中goal和event tracking的重要性,对于电子商务网站来说,Goal和Funnel的无间配合可以供你跟踪用户使用网站的流程、跟踪用户交易、设定广告投放目标,是衡量商业目标的工具。而对于一个博客来说,设置目标亦能够量化用户的参与度,了解一下读者行为。
设置成Goal的度量举例:
1. 注册(Signup)
2. 用户订阅数(Subscriptions)
3. 评论数(Comment)
4. Flash播放
以comment为例
利用comment的【提交】按钮,通过onclick事件发出的虚拟url统计,每次点击触发Goal统计。说白了,就是用GA统计comment按钮的点击数。
步骤:
1. 打开blog后台,找到comment页面,例如Wordpress是comment.php。
2. 找到submit按钮的input事件,加入以下代码,目的是实现每次用户点击提交按钮,onclick事件发出虚拟url请求。
onclick=”javascript: pageTracker._trackPageview(’/goal/comment.html’);”
3. 在GA中设定Goal,统计虚拟url触发数。
1)登入Goole Analytics账户。
2)编辑Profile Settings。
3)添加Goal,URL为之前设置的goal/comment.html。

4)保存,大功告成。
5)坐等数据,去GA查看结果。
