SurfStats web site stats tour - Conversion tracking and Defining Goals for web statistics reports

Click here to load the complete tour of SurfStats web site stats if you cannot see the menu on the left.

All SurfStats products can produce conversion tracking and Scenario Analysis stats reports for your web site. To be able to do that, you need to define conversion pages for each site profile on which you want statistics.



Landing Pages are pages where a visitor arrives on your web site and conversion pages are pages where a conversion action takes place on your web site for example a signup, download or pay action. By setting up conversion pages you determine where the "hot spots" on your web site are. This allows SurfStats to zoom in on those pages and extract detailed statistics for them.

To setup conversion pages for your web site use the following screen in SurfStats Log Analyzer and SurfStatsLive
