Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Google Analytics has one little setting that will calculate all of this for you. You\u2019ll be able to break down your revenue by campaign, keyword, or referral. You\u2019ll even have the per visit value of every traffic source. That sounds like some delicious data if you ask me.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s called goal values<\/b>. Google Analytics allows us to define goal values for each of our goals and populates our reports with data on where our revenue is coming from.<\/p>\n
