: Is having a Goal for each Funnel step a good practice? A little background, I've inherited a problem with Goal/Funnel without a lot of experience with either, but with a bit with Google Analytics

A little background, I've inherited a problem with Goal/Funnel without a lot of experience with either, but with a bit with Google Analytics in general.

The basic problem is that the goal flow is not working as "the business" expects.

Currently, there are 6 Goals/Funnels. Each set up as a continuation of the previous. E.g.


Goal 1: RegEx match. No funnel.
Goal 2: New Regex Match


Funnel : Regex from Goal 1, Required

Goal 3: New regex Match


Funnel Step 1: Regex from Goal 1, Required
Funnel Step 2: Regex from Goal 2



.... Other goals removed for brevity.


Goal 6: New Regex Match


Funnel Step 1: Regex from Goal 1, Required
Funnel Step 2: Regex from Goal 2
Funnel Step 3: Regex from Goal 3
Funnel Step 4: Regex from Goal 4
Funnel Step 5: Regex from Goal 5



From my reading of several tutorials today, they all demonstrate setting up a single Goal/Funnel.

It this setup likely to cause issues or are there advantages to it?
