This means you can see at a glance how successfully individual steps or phases were completed &ndash; and where there is still an obvious need for optimization.<\/p>\n<p>In my example, registration consists of 3 steps that are tracked differently:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Click on the register button (event)<\/li>\n<li>Contact form sent (event)<\/li>\n<li>Registration confirmed (URL, page view)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The custom funnel looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"508\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Registrierprozess-1-1024x650.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Registrierprozess-1-1024x650.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Registrierprozess-1-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Registrierprozess-1-768x487.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Registrierprozess-1.png 1084w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>And I didn&rsquo;t promise too much:<strong>At first glance you can see that the entire registration process still needs a lot of optimization.<\/strong>At second glance you get the details: Of 40,354 users who clicked on the registration button, only 4% actually completed the registration. The rest was lost during the journey: a large part (62%) after the 1st step. However, an even larger proportion (89.5%) after the 2nd step, i.e. after the users have already done most of the work and only have to click on the link in the email.<\/p>\n<h2>Custom Funnel #2: User paths on the website<\/h2>\n<p>Not just typical processes but<strong>every possible path on the website<\/strong>can be represented as a custom funnel.<\/p>\n<p>In this example we look at how many users of the<em>Home page<\/em>on the<em>List of results after the search<\/em>, then on one<em>Detail page<\/em>go and finally convert. And here too you can clearly see where most of the jumps happen<em>(Step 3, detail page with ~43%)<\/em>and therefore potential for optimization measures is available<em>(e.g. draw more attention to the action, carry out A\/B tests,&hellip;)<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Path-through-Website-1024x614.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Path-through-Website-1024x614.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Path-through-Website-300x180.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Path-through-Website-768x461.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Path-through-Website.png 1062w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>The possibilities for paths on your website are almost limitless: Think, for example, of users who&hellip;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>go from the homepage to category pages, then to detail pages and convert.<\/li>\n<li>Navigate from the homepage to the blog and sign up for the newsletter.<\/li>\n<li>do a search, go to the contact page and send a message.<\/li>\n<li>click on a teaser that, for example, leads to a product detail page, goes through the checkout process and finally buys.<\/li>\n<li>come from AdWords campaigns, have seen page X and converted.<\/li>\n<li>&hellip;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Custom Funnel #3: Scroll Tracking<\/h2>\n<p>Using a small extra script on your website, you can analyze whether, for example, your long-tail website, blog articles or product detail pages are actually scrolled to the end &ndash; or whether users only ever move in the visible area.<em>An excellent analysis for anyone who likes this<strong>User engagement on the website<\/strong>want to measure.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For optimal presentation, a custom funnel can be created, e.g.<strong>for the home page shows whether users are scrolling and, above all, to what extent<\/strong>. For simplicity, I have presented the values &#8203;&#8203;clustered in increments of 20:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Scrolltracking-1024x500.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Scrolltracking-1024x500.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Scrolltracking-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Scrolltracking-768x375.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-Scrolltracking.png 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>Here, too, the result is again clear: Extremely many users do not scroll at all or at least only scroll to the first fifth (20%) of the website. Only very few users (1.3%) scroll to the end of the page. Most users (around 73%) are lost between the first and second phases. Even in the remaining phases, only around 35% can be motivated to continue scrolling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Analysis tip:<\/strong>It would now be extremely exciting to analyze in detail those users who have not completed the first phase: How do these 72.68% behave on the rest of the website? Custom funnels offer this<strong>ingenious feature for creating segments<\/strong>: With a simple click on a completed (blue bar) or incomplete phase (red arrow), a new segment is created that can be applied anywhere in GA.<em>This means that as soon as &ldquo;strange&rdquo; behavior is identified in custom funnels, further research can be carried out very easily.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Custom Funnel #4: YouTube Videos<\/h2>\n<p>YouTube videos can also be evaluated in Google Analytics using a small extra script:<a href=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/blog\/webanalyse\/youtube-video-tracking-mit-google-analytics\/\">Details about &nbsp;YouTube tracking and analysis can be found here.<\/a>This makes it possible to analyze whether your users<strong>Have watched videos entirely, not at all, or at least partially<\/strong>&ndash; and which videos perform better than others.<\/p>\n<p>This can also be beautifully presented with a custom funnel:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-YouTube-Videotracking-2-1024x505.png\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-YouTube-Videotracking-2-1024x505.png 1024w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-YouTube-Videotracking-2-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-YouTube-Videotracking-2-768x379.png 768w, https:\/\/e-dialog.group\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Custom-Funnel-YouTube-Videotracking-2.png 1283w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>In this case, we analyze whether YouTube videos were generally viewed.&nbsp;And the result is actually very nice: of the 36,292 users who started a video, around 62% watched to the end.<em>A good sign &ndash; the videos seem interesting!<\/em>In a next step, you could create another funnel and analyze in detail whether, for example, videos in category A perform better than in category B, whether shorter videos are more likely to be seen to the end than longer ones, etc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Optimization tip:<\/strong>If you have users who have only seen 20% of a video from category A<strong>retarget<\/strong>If you want to, you can do that very easily with Custom Funnel. Clicking on a completed (blue bar) or incomplete phase (red arrow) opens a new one<strong>Target group<\/strong>created, the<strong>for remarketing<\/strong>can be used. Then submit this target group to AdWords and use it for retargeting.<\/p>\n<h2>Summary: All the benefits of custom funnels<\/h2>\n<p>So with custom funnels you can<strong>lots of brilliant analysis<\/strong>to help you better understand user behavior on your website. All the advantages summarized here:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Custom funnels are<strong>freely definable based on any user behavior<\/strong>(Pageview, Event, Transaction, and a mix of everything) and all available dimensions.<\/li>\n<li>Custom funnels are<strong>retroactive<\/strong>and can therefore be applied retroactively to historical data.<\/li>\n<li>You can on<strong>Session and user scope level<\/strong>be created. Session scope means that all phases must occur within one session. User scope means that individual phases can occur in different sessions.<\/li>\n<li>New ones can emerge from the individual phases of the funnel<strong>Segments<\/strong>be created or<strong>Target groups<\/strong>for remarketing in AdWords.<\/li>\n<li>Custom funnels are based on a minimum of one and a maximum of five phases. Up to five rules (filters) can be defined per phase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Would you also like to use custom funnels?
