How to track visitor path in web site

[Pensar IT Management]

Hi All

I have google analytics installed on my website and use it to track visitors, sources, keyword success etc

One thing I can't figure out - is there a way to track visitor path/navigation through the website? Ie landing page, which page visitors go to next after that etc?

I have figured out entrance and exit pages etc but would really like to figure out the most common paths/navigation visitors take through the pages on the web site.

Anyone know if this is possible and how to do it?

Many thanks

you can view the reverse paths of conversions.

you can view the reverse paths of conversions.

What if it doesn't convert though?

I used to use Woopra but it got a bit addictive sitting and watching what people did in realtime on my site.

This link might help

You can track back by setting your important stuff as goals.

so if you make adding an item a goal then the page that they land on is rever cheackable. If you have abandoned carts you then see the why they got there


When I said 'conversions, I meant goal conversions not so much sales conversions. break the process into goals then you can reverse track it.

I use whoson

it lets me know who is on the site where they came from, i can even co browse, it logs all keywords landing pages gives daily, weekly and monthly stats

it does cost but the data is great

The navigation summary.

Alternatively, you could use something like crazyegg.

Thanks all for the info.

It does seem there are some good tools out there that can be bought in.I thought there might be some sort of 'most common navigation paths' taken by visitors to your site but it doesnt seem to be.

I can see the most popular pages etc so I guess I can figure it out from that, I always thought there was perhaps more

Thanks all
