Can you filter referring keywords in Google Analytics by language?
-
Hi All!
So yes, I know that you can see/filter the language that the computer or browser was set to (en-us, ru, fr, etc.), but if you look at the keywords used by visitors falling under "fr", some are in English.
Is there any way to get, say, just the keywords in Russian - regardless of what the visitor's browser language was set to?
Thanks!

Hi Aviva!
Glad I could help! I have one Thai client and use the same trick to get a general idea of how much traffic they are getting from Thai keywords.
Happy traffic analyzing!

Thanks, Tim!
This is actually an incredible help, because I am dealing with languages that have different characters. Since most languages have some characters that are more common, if you hit enough of them, you're going to include virtually every search phrase. If I want to single out English (if my other language is Russian, Hebrew, Chinese, etc.), just use a|e|i|o|u|y - and you've got it. And if you're trying to exclude English and get the other language, just use a segment that excluded the vowels.
So... thanks!
All the best,
Aviva (I work with Debi)

Hi Debi,
I can't think of a perfect way to solve this, but you might be able to set up some sort of advanced search once you're on the keyword report.
Russian gives you a bit of an advantage because there are characters unique to the language that you can search for. For example, you could create this advanced search: Include, Keyword, Matching RegExp, г|и|ф|ч.
See the attached image for a better explanation. In RegEx, the | character means "or". So you're basically saying "г or и or ф or ч" and the results will show any keyword that uses one of those characters.
Like I said, this isn't perfect. For all I know, there are many Russian words that don't use these characters, and this doesn't help you out with singling out English or French keywords. But maybe you can play around with this idea and find something works.

Google Analytics - Dashboard Question
I'm looking to set up a dashboard widget in Google Analytics that does the following but can't : Shows traffic sources in a table as the dimension, and wanting to show goal completions to a specific product page and then only show what the average time spent (by source) on just those product pages. It looks like it's showing the whole session duration for the entire source, but I want to create a secondary filter that is only showing the time spent on those specific pages. Can anyone help - or is this possible? Thanks all!

Splitting Google analytics data
Hi Everyone I'm not sure if this can be done but thought i would ask anyway.

Google analytics and software applications
Hei Guys. I think i know the answer for this one but i thought i ask you in order to be 100% sure. Ok let's go.. So i set up url based goals in Google analytics. My website (what are running on WordPress) has google analytics enabled but just before customers makes desired action i have to send them to the application page. Trick is that the application page is not running on wordpress and doesn't have google analytic tracking. After customer fills the application form i send him to my /thank-you page on my wordpress site. My question is: Does the conversion still count because customer left my website for a minute in order to fill in the application form? Best Regards, Tauri

Editing Google Analytics eCommerce Javascript for Volusion
Does anyone know how to edit the ecommerce javascript with Volusion dynamic variables? I thought I did it correctly but none of the information got recorded in GA. It recorded that there was a transaction made but not info on the purchase price, order #, etc. This is the current code I am using: NOTE: In Volusions customer support center they provided this information: Where Order-Specific Information is Generated Order-specific information can be generated by JavaScript on the OrderFinished.asp page within Volusion. On this page, two JavaScript arrays will be initialized that advanced users may need to be aware of. The arrays and their contents are as follow:
Reporting & Analytics | | jhooley
Order Array Contents Order[0] = Order ID
Order[1] = Unused
Order[2] = Payment Amount
Order[3] = Affiliate Commisionable Value
Order[4] = Sales Tax
Order[5] = Total Shipping Cost
Order[6] = Billing City
Order[7] = Billing State
Order[8] = Billing Country OrderDetails Array Contents OrderDetails[X][0] = Order ID
OrderDetails[X][1] = Order Detail ID
OrderDetails[X][2] = Product Code
OrderDetails[X][3] = Product Name
OrderDetails[X][4] = (unused)
OrderDetails[X][5] = Product Price
OrderDetails[X][6] = Quantity Note that in the above example, X refers to a line item number (beginning from zero). Note that there can be multiple Order Details arrays - one for each item contained within an order. I'm a newbie at Analytics installation and could really use any help. Thanks!1 -
Mobile and Google Analytics
As my mobile numbers are going up in Google Analytics I'm trying to figure out what phone runs what browser. I see that 93% of mobile users have Safari which I believe is iPhone, iPad and iPods. There is a 6% usage of "Mozilla Compatible Agent". What cell phone would this be?
