Is there any way around being able to set up 20 goals in Analytics? What if one of my clients want to set up 10 pages with separate actions to track on each page. Will then each actions count as a separate goal? If this is the case, how could I work around creating more than 20 goals? Would I have to look into hiring/buying a third party or separate software?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi!
Yes, it is possible to edit a goal after i has been set up.
-
I do have another question, I see that you can edit a goal. Is it possible to edit the goal with a new action to track?
-
Great thank you
This will help me to be prepared if questions arise from that client. I want to be able to explore different avenues if one suggestion doesn't work.
I appreciate your help.

Honestly, my first suggestion would be to follow Jen's advice in creating another profile within the same Google Analytics account to get access to 20 more goals. You could create a profile for each specific section of the site and/or specific kinds of conversions you are tracking.
Another option would be to use Event Tracking rather than using goals in this scenario. Check out https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/eventTrackerGuide for more info.

Thank you
Are there any that you would recommend assuming that I I want track form submissions, downloads, etc...? Can analytics be integrated into the separate tools?
-
Google Analytics Premium is the paid option and it only costs a cool $150,000 a year. There are other conversion tracking tools out there that are free/much cheaper, but it depends on what kinds of things you want to track (ecommerce, phone calls, form submissions, newsletter signups, etc).
-
Thank you
I appreciate your help and feedback.
-
I believe you get more goal spots in the premium version. You can have as many profiles as you want in GA without any issues.

Thank you Jenn -
So I would have to create a new account (duplicating the profile) using the same information as the original. You say "free", are there paid options? Duplicating the account will not skew any metrics?
-
The only "free" way around the 20, is to simply duplicate the profile and you have 20 new goal spaces in the new duplicated profile.

Drop in Bounce Rate in Google Analytics
Hi guys, I have recently seen a large drop in bounce rate (from GA) which seems unnatural for one of our clients website. Since the start of 2018, the bounce rate was consistently between 40-60%, and then saw a random spike, and now for the past two weeks, the bounce rate is below 10%. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas if this is a problem with GA, or the site itself. Site: https://www.zoomocarcredit.com/ Any comments/feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Jack.

Google Analytics global page empty
Hello, I don't know what happened with my Google Analytics initial page. For around a week I have there all my websites, but they show no results on global page. If I enter on any property I can see everything as normal, just not on the initial page. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/JKFVIh4 For sure I changed anything that I shouldn't. Perhaps you know what's wrong? Thank you in advance.

Conflicting data in Google Analytics

No of Sessions for a Keyword shown in Organic Search tab (compared to)
No of Clicks for a Query in the Search Engine Optimisation tab For example, for a brand term, Google are showing 17 Sessions in Organic Search.
For the same term Google are showing 90 Clicks in the Queries section of Search Engine Optimisation OK, we know that Google are a little cloak and dagger regarding keyword data but surely Sessions and Clicks for the same keyword should be identical unless I'm missing something.0 -

Behavior Flow vs. All Pages report in Google Analytics
In the interest of determining why our ecommerce site isn't converting, I've been spending some quality time with GA. I've suspected that our front page is part of the problem, especially where our organic traffic is concerned (we get a good deal of referral traffic from a link on an OEM's site). According to the Behavior Flow report under the Behavior section of GA, organic traffic to our home page is hemorrhaging (roughly 60% bounce rate). But when I went to the All Pages report (Behavior > Site Content > All Pages) and looked at organic traffic to our home page, then looked at the Medium as a secondary dimension, I'm getting a bounce rate of 35%. Why the massive discrepancy? Can somebody assist?
