[HOW-TO] Setting up vBSEO's Registration Funnel in Google Analytics

I'm still struggling with this. I've done all the steps above, but my "Goal Funnel" dashboard in Google Analytics shows that registered users are leaving from "/google-funnel/regform-submit.html" to go to "/register.php?do=addmember" instead of the last defined stage in my funnel, which is "/google-funnel/registration-complete.html". Therefore, registered users are not showing up as goal conversions. Instead, they appear as abandoning the funnel before the last step.

Any idea how to fix?

Are you requiring users to activate their accounts? If so, the chance of them staying on the page they were on until they get their email activated is low. I think this is the same problem we are running into

Hi having a few problems with it not showing up on analytics.

My forum is at example.com/forum

should I have goals in the form /forum/google-funnel/blaaah or should it just be /google-funnel/blaaah?

I was wondering too.

I have

/forums/register.php
/forums/register.php?do=register
/forums/register.php?do=addmember

Is it alright?

No, you need to follow the instructions. vbseo does some alias's that change the page names. For example if you bring up your site and go to register.php. Do a veiw source and search for google. You will eventaully find google/funnel info. Just follow the instructions. If you dont require moderation or activation of accounts it will work. If you do moderate or require account activation then so far i have been unable to get it working either

Right, thank you. I use the HTML cleanup addon so I couldn't find it on first place, but I just did now.

Will this method work if I use the Quick Register plugin, instead of the default vBulletin registration form?

Thanks

I followed the instructions above but I didnt see what to enter as the goal url or the final url I assumed it to be. I don't know it off hand so I just used:

/google-funnel/regform-submit.html and removed it from the list of funnels.

Thanks I will add this now since I have analytics

Thank you; this was very helpful and easy to follow.

This doesn't seem to be working. Anybody mind taking a look?

**Soliloquy** · 06-23-2009 11:21 PM

I'm having trouble too: is this set up correctly?

**Elmer** · 12-23-2009 04:51 PM

Does this works with vBSEO 3.5 and vBulletin 4?
