Tracking Sales to Sources
-
We're trying to set up a commission system for the different people who contribute to our site.
We just want to see a list of transactions and the path back to source for all of them. We haven't been able to figure it out and know other ecommerce sites have had to have figured this out.We have GA Ecommerce tracking on. How can we find last months sales:
source / medium / keyword / landing page / revenue / etc
Sorry if this is an obvious question. We have spent a lot of time trying to figure it out.

We are still searching for a solution to this. We have worked on it though and this is what we've come up with. Please understand we're just driving to the finish line anyway we can with hopes someone has found a better way to do it.
I attached 2 videos of what we are looking for and sort of explaining where we are at.
Thanks In advance.

You're very welcome.
Re: More detailed information: Custom reporting in Google Analytics should allow you to do all of them. You should be able to drag all the appropriate metrics and dimensions you need!
So instead of "Standard Reporting", go to "Custom Reporting" along the top.

Thank you Josh,
IT's very close to what I'm looking for, that is the closest solution we have come up with as well.
Here is where that method is falling short for us.
We want to be able to see more than they are showing us. All the dimensions we want to see are in the list, but we can only select 2 at a time.
Can we see more than just Source/medium plus a secondary. Is it possible to see
"source / medium / keyword / landing page / revenue / etc" in 1 report somehow?

Hi Christopher,
I think... If you go into the new analytics and select your site. Go to Traffic Sources in blue down the left, and then to Sources below that. Select All Traffic (or if you want a specific one, select that instead).
Now in the main part of this page, below the orange bar, then the grey bar and then the "All Traffic". You will have "Explorer" and below that "E-commerce". Select "E-commerce".
This will add a number of elements to the table below, which you can then add a "Secondary dimension" of landing page (or whatever else). You can burrow down into that information to find everything you're looking for I think. Then just change the dates to the window that you need.
Let me know if that's not quite the information you are looking for!

Issue for Sales Team & Funnelling Smaller Orders
Hi, Hoping somebody might have some suggestions for funnelling smaller orders and larger orders on different journeys. Basically, 90% of our business comes from 10% of customers with larger orders, like contractors and organisations who fill out leads or call us. But about 90% of the sales teams time is taken up from handling lots of smaller calls, which account for <5% of our revenue. Obviously we still want these smaller orders, but would anyone have any suggestions on moving these customers away from phone calls? We've tried to add as much content to the site as possible to answer they're questions, but they seem to just call anyway. Hope you can help!

Figuring out why sales drop significantly from one day to another
Hi all, We're running an eCommerce site and are using Moz to track our organic results i primarily we are using the Rank tracker and On page analysis tools. One strange issue that we experience on our website is sales dropping from one day to the next unexplainably (to us anyway). For example, one day (could be any day of the week or weekend) we'll make £1,000 of sales, the next £200 - the following might be back up to £1,000. I've tried looking for patterns in traffic, but oddly even on the days when we have poor sales we still tend to have almost as much traffic. We also use adwords, which account for about 50% of sales - on some of the poor days our spend on adwords is down, on others it's not. If the spend is down I could make a fair assumption that our competitors are playing around with their bids. I'm interesting in trying to determine why we have such irregular sales patterns. If they dropped 10/20% I could quite easily put it down to any number of factors - even the weather for example, however drops of 80/90% seem strange. I don't really know where to look for the answers - my first thought was that on the poor days I should check whether our organic rankings had dropped significantly overnight - but the Moz Rank Tracker only updates once per week, so perhaps there is an alternative way someone could suggest? I'd be really interested to hear from any of you that might have been through similar struggles, or, have some ideas that might help us get to the bottom of the fluctuation in sales. Thanks in advance for your time. Kind regards,

Question regarding on tracking
Hi guys, We are tshirts printing company.
Conversion Rate Optimization | | WayneRooney
We have of course a website and we have around 18k monthly visitors.
We get around 75 daily quotes.
We are not E commerce so we dot sale on the website. We can get all the information from Google analytic regarding to how many quotes we got and from where they came from but we can't know how many quotes was converted. I heard that i can add ref code on the url and then i will see that code in our quotes system and i will know from where that quote arrived.
Another thing that i know i can do is that the system will remember that first url that the visitor enters the site so like that i can know exactly from each url we got the quote and i know that the professional name for this is SESSION. So after all this, the obvious questions here is, Is everything that im saying here is make sense ?
Can i add SESSION to WordPress site ? And how easy is that/or the cost for that ?
For all of you the expert out there, is this the right way to track everything if you are not eCommerce ? Any help are welcome !!0 -
Track bounce rate per PPC keyword
Hi all Wondering if anyone could give me a nudge in the right direction with this please. When running an adwords campaign is there a way in which one can track the bounce rate on the landing page per keyword sending paid traffic? I've had a play about in adwords and GA and couldn't find the right option. The site I am sending traffic to is not a ecommerce site so cannot set up conversion tracking so we are going to monitor the bounce rates of different keywords and drop the ones which are bouncing much higher than others as it seems better to invest the budget in those words which are keeping people on the page for longer. Many thanks Carl

Tracking Organic Seach Queries From GA to Companies
Okay, so this is a kinda ridiculous, long shot whim du jour. But it's so intriguing I can't resist. Last week, GA reveals that my client had 6 queries (vs. 0 since the beginning of time) in the format: Large Red Widgets #3 in Obscure Suburb (of my client's head office) Large Red Widgets #3 just happen to be expensive and profitable. My question: is there a snowball's chance in hell of tracking this query any further? I'll take what I can get -- since not many people are interested in red widgets #3 in said obscure suburb. I'd like enough info so a sales rep can follow up. These folks are not shy. Thoughts? Next steps? Idiot proof instructions on where specifically to look in GA?

How to track full path of website visitors until conversion, not just landing page?
hi, This is my first question in the forums and I'm looking forward to be part of a great SEO community. I was wondering ow to track full path of website visitors until conversion, not just landing page? I've been using Wordpress jetpack site stats for while, which shows great data like keywords used in google, landing page etc. But I would like to have access to the full path for each separate visitors (including their IP address and country is possible) to improve my website and conversions. Example: step 1: Visitor X types "seo" on Google step 2: visitor lands on my homepage step 3: visitor visits to order page and buys Is there such tool available as a Wordpress plugin? Or do I have to use Google analytics for this? thank you for your help, Marc

Google Analytics e-commerce tracking on multiple pages
Hi, I work in the airline industry and we are trying to implement Google analytics on our site. We are at the stage of getting e-commerce tracking setup. The problem we face is that we have multiple receipt pages (booking confirmation pages in our case) instead of just one as most carts would have. These are completely independent of each other. My question is can I use the same e-commerce tracking code on each page or do I need to setup multiple trackers. I reviewed the documentation here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/ecommerce#multitracker however I'm unsure if multiple trackers are needed when using it on multiple pages or is this just for multiple trackers on the same booking confirmation page. any help on this would be greatly appreciated
