For example, on my e-commerce site, I have multiple products for which I need to setup goals separately, but the final page after sales (Thank you) is common for all products. So if I set that as the Goal URL it counts for every goal and not just for the particular product. What should I do if I need to setup multiple goals but have a single goal URL.

If you’re looking to implement something akin to a “Sitecatalyst event” in Google Analytics, read up on Google Analytics goals.

So if you are trying to get people to view a specific article on your site then you should use the URL of that article for the goal URL. Hope that helps!

Is the goal page the article page. I seed alot of links.. Let me know if this makes sense if it doesn't I would love to send you a pic of the page I am referring to..
