: CTR for a specific button that has an event label on given page from Google Analytics I have a landing page and I want to see how many of the people who sees the page clicks a certain

@Gonzalez347

just a note of caution: events with page-changing buttons/links can get biased a lot. it's a race between the browser killing the page view (its javascript)_ and GA registering the event. so the "completed" number may be way off. I've seen up to 50% missed on form submits.

solution: using a event with callback + preventdefault handler

There are two methods:-


Add Event Tracking for the button and then you see the data in the Events section of Google Analytics.
Add campaign parameters to the URL of the button and then you can see the data in the Campaigns section of Google Analytics.


In order to obtain the % of users that either did or didn't do something on your page, you need to set 'something' up as a goal.

You'll need to set the URL of the page that contains the button as a required step and then you'll be able to see a funnel of all visits to the page that resulted in a goal (reaching the URL the button goes to).
