New GA interface - Number of conversion by source
-
Hi Guys,
Hope this is an easy one for a GA ninja.
In the new GA interface, how can I view the number of conversions by source, instead of the default conversion rate by source.
For example, if I want to view the number of conversion from Adwords.
I'm looking at Goals > Source / Medium > Google CPC and looking at Goal Set 1. However all data is expressed in percentages.
Thanks in advance!

One other thing I wanted to mention. I use this so GA can tell me what countries are sending me the most orders. If you only sell in the states, then you can see what states are sending you the most orders and retarget any PPC advertising dollars to those states (in my case countries).

Nailed it, marked as good answer for being a good answer!
Baffling as to why we need to setup advanced segments to access this data.
Thank you, sir.

Here's your answer from an GA Ninja. Yes I took Avinash's course!
Advanced Segments > Custom Segments > New Custom Segment > Name: # of Orders Completed (or whatever you want) > Include > # of Orders Completed (Goal X Completed) > Greater than Zero. Save the segment.
The bold is going to depend on what you call this. I label mine # of Orders Completed because that's exactly what I want to know. I don't want to know about stupid percentages and I don't want to bust out the calculator every time.
Traffic Sources > Sources > All Traffic. Don't forget to have your advanced segment checked off. All the "visits" are the # of Orders Completed.
Wahla!
Mark this as good answer.

Thanks Brad,
I want to take that one step further - there are 4 goals defined and I want the breakdown of number of conversions per goal from Adwords.
This is the data I can only find expressed in percentages.

Hi David,
So you just want to measure your completed goals by traffic source?
Go to Conversions -> Goals -> Overview in the left column. Once that page loads click on 'Source/Medium' under the 'Goals' section in the main panel. This will show a breakdown of the completed goals by source in both percentage and as a pure number.
Is this what you meant?
Cheers

Number of clicks / organic traffic - different data in Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools
Hi. I have a little problem. When I open Google Webmaster Tools I see 3000 clicks (in Traffic - Search queries - Clicks). But when I open Google Analytics I see much more visits from search engine (Google) - it´s 4-5 times more! It´s a huge difference, don´t you think? Do you know, where is the problem? What causes this diffence? thanks a lot

Google Analytics Site Search to new sub-domain
Hi Mozzers, I'm setting up Google's Site Search on a website. However this isn't for search terms, this will be for people filling in a form and using the POST action to land on a results page. This is similar to what is outlined at http://support.google.com/analytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1012264 ('<a class="zippy zippy-collapse">Setting Up Site Search for POST-Based Search Engines').</a> However my approach is different as my results appear on a sub-domain of the top level domain. Eg.. user is on www.domain.com/page.php user fills in form submits user gets taken to results.domain.com/results.php The issue is with the suggested code provided by Google as copied below.. Firstly, I don't use query strings on my results page so I would have to create an artificial page which shouldn't be a problem. But what I don't know is how the tracking will work across a sub-domain without the _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', '.domain.com']); code. Can this be added in? Can I also add Custom Variables? Does anyone have experience of using Site Search across a sub-domain perhaps to track quote form values? Many thanks!

Question on regular expression for filters on GA
Hi guys, I am creating profiles on some of the countries sites in my network, and have managed to establish the filter for tracking certain url patterns, for example: ^/japan-english- is tracking all my urls in the Japan site that start by japan-english great! however, it is not tracking the japanese instance of the urls. The pattern for the latter is : www.mysite.org/jp/japan-english I could then modify the filter to track the jp subfolder like this: ^/jp/japan-english- but it will then only track the urls on the /jp/ subfolder does anyone know the regex command for tracking the two url patters as follows: /jp/japan-english- & /japan-english- thanks in advance david

Google Analytics: Difference Between Goal Conversions & Goal Completions
When using Google Analytics, what is the difference between total goal conversions and total goal completions? We have many goals set up in a lead generation environment. Therefore, the only element of conversion is submitted a lead and arriving on the "Thank You" page. THose thank you pages are tagged accordingly. When we run reports though, the number of "Total Goal Conversions" and "Total Goal Completions" never match up.
