• Set up funnel steps where the URL doesn’t change
• In a single funnel path step, gather data on a group of pages.
For example:

Remember, you can define:
- 4 Goals per Profile
- 10 Steps per Goal
With some advanced set up, you can take advantage of some additional
important features of goals:
• First, you can create funnel steps for Flash pages or other pages where the URL
doesn’t change
• Also, in one single step of your funnel path, you can gather data on traffic to a
whole category of pages
• For example, you could configure a funnel path like this:
1. Homepage
2. Donation Page or Volunteer Page or Alerts Page
3. Check Out Page
4. Goal: Thank You Page
