About This Service

What Is GA4 Goal Setup?

Goals in Universal Analytics have been replaced by key events and conversions in GA4. Setting up goals in GA4 correctly means identifying events that represent genuine business outcomes, marking only those as key events in the property, and ensuring the events themselves are configured with the right trigger conditions so they fire when and only when the intended user action is completed.

Many GA4 properties have conversion bloat where dozens of events are marked as conversions from legacy setups, counting things like page views and scroll events rather than actual business outcomes. This inflates conversion numbers, makes it impossible to distinguish meaningful from meaningless actions, and corrupts the bidding signals sent to Google Ads.

Adslytics audits existing conversion configurations, removes events that should not be marked as conversions, correctly configures the events that should be, and documents the full conversion hierarchy so your reports surface metrics that reflect actual performance.

What Clients Say

"We'd been running GA4 for six months with barely any useful data — missing events, broken funnels, no purchase data. After the audit and rebuild we finally have accurate revenue figures and a proper conversion funnel. Completely transformed how we report."

Sarah Kim

Head of Marketing

"The GA4 migration from Universal Analytics was blocking our whole reporting stack. The team handled the full migration, set up matching custom events and built us a Looker Studio dashboard that replaced our old UA reports within days."

David Marsh

Growth Manager

"Our GA4 was technically installed but 90% of the custom events we needed weren't firing. After the setup service we have scroll depth, video plays, form submissions and checkout steps all tracking correctly. Now we can actually optimise."

Lisa Park

Marketing Director

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers to questions we hear from clients before starting a GA4 Goal Setup project.

Ask Us Anything →

No — GA4 uses an event-based model. There are no destination, duration, pages/session, or event goals as in UA. Instead, you mark any event as a Key Event.

Google rebranded 'Conversions' as 'Key Events' in GA4 in 2024. The function is the same — marking events as business-important actions.

GA4 allows up to 30 Key Events per property.

Only your primary conversion actions should be imported and used for bidding. Secondary micro-conversions should be marked as observation-only in Google Ads.

Every event — each purchase should be counted individually.

Once per session — prevents the same person submitting twice in one visit from inflating lead counts.

You can unmark it as a Key Event, but the underlying events remain in your data. Historical Key Event counts remain in reports.

Via Google Ads call conversion tracking or a third-party call tracking platform that sends an event to GA4.

Only events that are tracked in GA4 can be marked as Key Events. Events from CRMs or other platforms need to be passed via GA4 Measurement Protocol or server-side tracking.

We review your business model and analytics goals and recommend the right Key Event configuration.
