How can you see the conversion rates for the referral traffic?
For example I want to see if any of the facebook visits to my site resulted in a purchase.

Thanks.

Nice to see you on moz feel free to pm me any questions you may have in the future

Wow, I really missed that one. I consider myself an informed user of analytics but couldn't crack open this one!
Thanks!

i have learned that the hard way - you can never assume
-
Nice! You just taught me something.

Good point. I was assuming she already had goals set up.

Hi Rachel
The report Marisa pointed you to is a good way of seeing ecommerce at a glance, but for your specific referral report, see:
Traffic Sources > Sources > Referrals.
Once you're there, click on 'ecommerce' to see conversion stats.
To see specific social media reports, go to:
Traffic Sources > Social > Conversions
Once you're in social conversions, you can see the visits that resulted in a conversion from FB (just make sure you define what type of 'conversion' you're looking at with the drop down - these are based on the goals you might or might not have set up.
-
You need to first set up goals or ecommerce tracking then you can look at the goals and ecommerce tabs in traffic sources or other reports to see the data
-
Go to Conversion > Goals > Overview, and then click on Source/Medium.
I've included a screenshot that should be helpful.

Does Google need Analytics installed to create metrics?
Hi Mozers, Does Google know time on site, number of page visits, bounce rate, etc. even if Google Analytics is NOT installed? Does it measure all that stuff anyway, and if you install the GA code on your site, that is so that YOU can see those metrics? OR can Google only see those metrics if you install GA on your site? Thanks! Jane

Discrepancy between FB PPC and Google Analytics
This question was answered in 2011 here: http://moz.com/community/q/facebook-ppc-number-of-clicks-according-to-fb-different-than-visits-in-analytics. Wanted to post it to the community to see if anyone had any new thoughts in the last 3 years. I have been running campaigns on Facebook and seeing dramatic discrepancies between Facebook and GA's numbers. For example, I ran a Facebook ad campaign for a chiropractor where FB shows 35 clicks to the website, but GA only shows 2! An attorney ran a Facbook promotion, got 4 clients who actually filled out a questionnaire online, but GA only showed 2 visitors exiting off the form completion page. Is this because the users did not have JS/cookies enabled? Something else? What is the recommended work around? Tracking URL?

Setting Up Google Analytic with Sub Folder Sites
What is the best way of setting up Google Analytic for a website that has many sub folders? The main site is example.com and it has 40 sub folder sites like example.com/uk example.com/France etc etc Would it be advised to track a single domain in Google Analytic then create filters for the sub folder sites. Filters > Include traffic from > Sub directories Also with this method is it possible to view overall incoming website stats for everything? Previous experience would be great with this thanks 🙂

Setting up Google Analytics default URL
If someone has set: the default url in Google Analytics to a non-www address (http://mysite.com) then placed the UA tracking script from that GA account within the CMS framework of the website... ... and then set the permanent 301 redirect in the htaccess file to redirect to the www address (http://www.mysite.com). How less accurrate will my GA analytics measurements be considering the default url within GA is non-www and the permanent 301 redirect in htacess is to the www-address? Anyone know how reliable GA reports are until the default url in GA analytics is changed to match what is the redirected url in htaccess file? _Cindy

Get Stats on Search Box Usage, Using Google Analytics?
Let me preface this by first saying I am NOT using the Google Adsense Search feature. The question I am asking is pertaining to the standard search box that comes already coded in most .php blogs. In the Google Analytics, is there a way to tell how many people are searching using the search box? I've looked through the navigation and pathway options in analytics and I don't seem to see anything that definitively points to the number of people using the search box but, perhaps, I am overlooking it. Any insight?
