I'm using Savri (savri.io) for web analytics and want to set up goals to track conversions. In Savri, I can create two types of goals: 1. Pageview - triggered when visitors reach a specific page (e.g. /thank-you, /confirmation) 2. Event - triggered when an event is sent via va('event', 'Event-name') My site is: [DESCRIBE YOUR SITE - e.g. "a B2B site selling consulting services"] My most important conversions are: [DESCRIBE YOUR CONVERSIONS - e.g. "contact request, quote request, whitepaper download"] Help me create a goal strategy: 1. Which goals should I create? 2. Should they be pageview goals or event goals? 3. Which URLs or event names should I use? 4. If I need event tracking, give me the code for the va() calls
