Setting up Goals provides you with the option to measure your site's performance.  It also enables you to see if you have achieved all that you set to accomplish. For example, you can set a download page as your goal. The tool will provide you with exactly the number of users that achieved this goal, and the path they have taken through your website to achieve it.
