Tracking on Analytics .ca domain When Redirect From GoDaddy Control Panel?
-
I bought all .ca, .net, .org, .info and http://www.pilatesboisfranc.com at GoDaddy.
I'm using .com and all others are redirect to the .com from the GoDaddy control panel.
Is it easy to track any of thems on Analytics?
I just installed the tracking code and I selected in the ''What are you tracking'' option from the ''Advance'' tab, ''
Multiple top-level domains
Examples: www.pilatesboisfranc.uk
www.pilatesboisfranc.cn
www.pilatesboisfranc.frIf someone enter http://www.pilatesboisfranc.ca
will it be track?
I don't know anything about coding, I hope you can help because I would like to use the .ca doamine to track advertising on my car...
Thank you,

You do not list what Analytics tool you are using, but here is how I would do this in Google Analytics and this is probably similar to what your Analytics tool works.
Google Analytics only tracks a page view when there is a page view and the GA code is executed on that page.
If you are having GoDaddy 301 redirecting all the domains to the .com then there is no page that is shown/viewed and therefore no GA code to execute to record the redirect.
What you need to do is setup the redirect to the .com to include referral data in the URL
http://support.google.com/googleanalytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=55578
So instead of redirecting from the .fr domain to
http://www.pilatesboisfranc.com
You would redirect to from the .fr domain to
You will then see where the referrals came from on your .com domain as a function of your GA reporting.
You will need to decide how you need to label your source, medium and campaign appropriately, I just took a quick stab, but it may not be how you want to label things.

How is going to affect my seo?
Is there any difference betwen mystore/blog.com vs blog.mystore.com?
Wich is the best option for Google Analitycs / Search Console a single property or 2 properties? If you know some post or tutorial related with my question will be appreciated Thanks Guys1 -

Tracking Product Codes
Hey Mozzers, We are improving our B2B site by adding product codes to headings & meta information etc to gain some traction ranking for our own products and those supplied by others when searched for by product code. Almost immediately we are hitting the top half of the first page for most of these and seeing some nice results. We would like to track our placement for these product codes in google but feel this would be a waste of our Moz Keyword limit and we really dont need to check them once a week, just one a month or so. Has anybody got any methods of tracking our ranking for a a big list of keywords say once a month which isn't too labour intensive? Many Thanks

Is It Possible to have Cross Domain Tracking on Two Different Accounts?
Good afternoon to all, I have this kind of dilemma regarding setting up tracking code on two different accounts, namely bioglass.com with GA Code UA-12345678-1 where all the product information has been listed and shopbioglass.com with GA Code UA-87654321-1 where the prices are located and transaction takes place. Both of them are connected since if you click the buy button on bioglass.com for a specific product, it will automatically redirect to shopbioglass.com where the prices and transactions comes into place. Dilemma: I want to check how many conversion took place from bioglass.com to shopbioglass.com. I know they have different GA Code but is it possible for me to have a cross domain tracking for this?? What are the possible remedies if not? Thanks to all 🙂

Weird Google Analytics tracking question
I have a client that has a market place site, where people list goods and sell them, think something like Etsy. Instead of developing a system to show the users page views and things like that, does it sound reasonable to let them enter a Google Analytics property on the pages they list on, then let them monitor through GA? Does anyone see any fatal flaws in this thinking?

Has anyone experienced Google Analytics track the page visit to a "thank you" page, but not the goal conversion?
Has anyone experienced where Google Analytics would track the page visit to a "thank you" page, but not the goal conversion that should result? The goal had worked for a long time as it is as just a goal url with head match. No funnel. Not case sensitive. For about four days now, no conversions have been recorded, but Google Analytics shows hundreds of people visited the page that should trigger the goal. Additionally, we have received the hundreds of leads. A Screaming Frog search shows the code is embedded throughout the site. For the interested, the GA code looks like (and the 8 Xs are the correct number on the site): Am I missing something?

I don´t know what am I doing wrong and I would really appreciate if you could help me through some light on this. I have attached an image of the option for the goal in GA. Can anybody help me?

URL Structure and Analytics Reporting
Since there are no dumb questions, here's mine: Our url structure currently displays the date followed by the post title. However, our news website has many categories like world, sports, entertainment etc. Now, when tracking in GA we get to see how many hits a specific page is getting (like entertainment) but since the category is not defined in the URL GA does not add the detail story views to the category page views. To illustrate further, a story from the entertainment section maybe displayed on the Home page and a reader may click on that story and read it without going to the entertainment page. This however, does not reflect in the analytics for that specific page(in this example, the entertainment page). My question is, should we ammend the url structure to include the categories, if so, would the editor have to do that while composing the post or is there some other way. We are using WP. Or should I create some filters or something on GA. Thanks!
