Yes, setting up conversion points can be arduous but is our best defense against all of our other efforts not being a total waste of time. Also agree on the analytics topic. You have it figured out, man. Conversion optimization is the only way to guarantee what you're doing is working and to be able to value your service, time and effort. Thanks!

Thanks for the continued motivation. It's good to know there are others that are on the same realm of thought. Also, thanks for the shout too! When I think about how much work I have to do to set up my conversion points, I remind myself how valuable it all is. When I just started adding my MailChimp form to the end of my blog posts, my list doubled! That happened after 2 weeks and 3 posts. As things get more limited in the freemium space as it goes for analytics, it seems to make sense that you optimize your conversion points. For most, we need to set them up first, then look to optimize. Either way, Google is not giving away as much information for free, so we have to make sure whatever traffic we drive that we make it count. Woo! Thanks for the continued motivation.
