Best way to generate analytics reports for listing style website
-
I'm working on a website that includes dedicated pages for ~40 local businesses, and I need to be able to generate and export some basic reports I can send to each business.
The data I need for each report is split between general sitewide data:
- total number of visitors to the site for month.
- number of visitors to each main category page
- what country they are from (main countries) - top 5
- traffic source / keywords
- avg time on site
As well as specific data for each individual page:
- how many people viewed specific total pages
- Time spent on individual page.
Would this be possible with custom reports in analytics? I can see the number of different reports being difficult to maintain, especially as site grows. Anyone had expereince on a similar site of ideas on the best way to do this?
Thanks

I've managed to create a custom dashboard that gives me all the general stats EXCEPT for number of visits to each main page e.g. venues, services, accommodation
I've tried creating a table widget that displays page and pageviews which gives me some of the data I want, but I want to limit this to certain URLs. I can filter it to 1 URL, but when I add more filters for different URLs it doesn't work. I need to do and OR filter, but when I setup 2 pages it just shows no data.
Is there an easier way to get this data? I want to measure visits for ~6 main pages.
Thanks

Strange landing page in Google Analytics
Hello MOZ Community, The website in question is https://x-y.com/ When i looked at the landing pages report in GA , x-y.com is appended at the end of every URL like this. https://x-y.com/x-y.com When i open the above URL in GA interface, it shows page not found. This is obvious as there is no such URL.

Google Analytics global page empty
Hello, I don't know what happened with my Google Analytics initial page. For around a week I have there all my websites, but they show no results on global page. If I enter on any property I can see everything as normal, just not on the initial page. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/JKFVIh4 For sure I changed anything that I shouldn't. Perhaps you know what's wrong? Thank you in advance.

How does switching to HTTPS effect Google Analytics?
We are looking at making our site HTTPS. We have been using the same Google Analytics account for years and I like having the historical data. All of our pages will be the same, we are just going to redirect from the http to https. Does anything need to be done with Google Analytics? What about other addons such as Optimizely, Crazy Egg, or Share this?

Help with Analytics
Afternoon all - I hope someome might be able to help me getting some data out of Google Analytics. I want to try pull a report which will show me both what the last page before a goal completion was and the country that generated the click. Is that possible at all? When I go to look at goals, I can only pull data for the last page before the goal click ... and when I look at my goals in the Pages>Content menu, I can only view country. So is there any way of pulling the two set of data together at all? Any thoughts would be really appreciated. Thanks very much, Simon
