Is it possible to set a Goal conversion tracking from a subdomain to a root domain?
-
Hi Mozzers,
Here is an issue I am going through:
- I have a root domain(www.example.com) that is the core website where you are able to schedule a service
- I have a subdomain (sub.example.om) that is part of content strategy offering free tips and follows a different branding strategy.
- There are internal links from sub to root domain
- I have a GA subdomain tracking code installed on every page for both domains
I would love to set goal tracking on GA for visitors coming to my subdomain, then going to root domain and then schedule a sevices? Is this possible? If it is, can someone show me a How To because I tried it anddidn't work?
Thanks mozzers!

You can set up the goals in the subdomains profiles if you want to view goals there. That's entirely up to you. Each profile is its own thing. When I say "filter", I mean write "example.com" into the search box there, and search by it. You can also click "advanced" next to the search box, and make the search more granular if needbe.

Hi John,
One thing I am confused about. Should I have the goals set in the subdomain profile? domain or the combined profile? I would think this should be on the combined profile, right?
Also when you say "filter by example.com", you can only do that by adding a secondary dimension "landing Page URL path" right or you meant something else?
thanks John!

So... if you have these set up as separate profiles, and have a profile that's just for the www.example.com subdomain, and have set up the scehdule a service action as a goal, you should be able to see this in your conversion paths report. Go to Conversions > Multi-Channel Funnels > Top Conversion Paths. Select "Source/Medium Path" as the Primary Dimension. Now, if you filter by "example.com", this should show conversions that involve referrals from your subdomains (that aren't a part of that GA profile). If you have many goals and only are interested in the schedule a service goal, then select only that goal at the top.
As is the case many times in Google Analytics, there's more than one way to skin a cat, but hopefully this works for you.

Adwords shows clicks but no conversions in GA
Hi Folks, I was wondering if anyone has come across a similar situation, I have setup adwords campaigns and included these in my Google Tag Manager setup and deployed the GTM snippet to a clients site. In adwords I can see clicks (2,000+) however in Google Analytics I can see only a handful ot conversions. Is there anyway I can test/track a conversion to ensure that it is being processed and report correctly? Also within AdWords Conversion Tracking I have noticed that under the "Webpages" tab that pages other than the pages that should have the conversion code on them are listed. Have I setup my Adwords camapign or GTM tags incorrectly? Any and all feedback or insight would be greatly welcomed and appreciated.

Goal Tracking in Google Analytics
Hi guys, I just want to ask if you have videos or blogs about setting up goal tracking using conversion page or a "thank you page" in Google Analytics. This will help me to get how many inquiries (from contact form) I am getting and for me to know where they came from using Google Analytics (countries, source/site they used, time on site, category page and landing page, etc.). #2 question - In case I don't have a "thank you" page, is it possible for me to get these "goals"? Do I need to insert a code in each of the "send" button in my contact form? Looking forward for a positive response from you guys. 🙂 Thanks, JC

Click through to buy now page - 15-20%
Actually complete the buy now process - 1% Conversion from organic traffic landing directly on the homepage at http://www.drivingtestnow.co.uk is having a conversion rate of about 5%. It seems odd to me that my highly targeted ad campaign and landing page are convertign so badly compared to the less atrgeted organic search traffic and homepage. Have you got any ideas why this might be occurring and also any tips on how I can improve the conversion rate for my product? Gary...0
