Hi guys, my site's statistics along with product data is being tracked nicely in google analytics thanks to a fair few helpful posts on here. However, i'm looking at my Ecommerce tab for any period, under the 'Sources / Medium' heading I have just my homepage as a referral...
My checkout makes use of the hosts ssl, so upon checkout a customer is forwarded from my domain to this address:
https://secure.hosts.co.uk/~hobby-to...in/os******.pl
- the first checkout page.
Do I have to set up a funnel to track each page of the checkout process to maintain this referral data? I'm thinking my code at the moment is only registering that final page referred from my domain, but I want it to track the referral to that first checkout page, and then through to receipt.html? I'm keen to learn how to optimise analytics but i'm not sure where to start, or if it's possible with hosted (shared?) ssl?
If I used this code, that would register each of the checkout stages to use in a funnel in analytics right?
Here's my analytics code:
Thanks guys,
Rob

'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga' + '.' + 'js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })(); </script>
