    I migrated a website from a .aspx to a .php and hence had to 301 all the old urls to the new php ones. It's been months after and I'm not seeing any of the php pages showing results but I'm still getting results from the old .aspx pages.

    Has any one had any experience with this issue or knows what to do?

    Many thanks,

      Hi there

      I would make sure you take a look through this migration guide from Moz as it has steps to ensure your site is properly migrated.

      From there, I would check the following:
      Sitemap
      Internal Links
      Canonical Tags Change of Address Tool (if necessary)

      The first three links above could potentially be utilizing old URL structures, so you want to make sure that you change those and they are up to date. The last is for if you changed your domain at all.

      Your analytics tag should not be the reason that your new URLs are not appearing in search.

      After these steps, I would then go through a backlink audit and make sure that you update any quality backlinks or listings and remove and/or disavow any links that you find to be spammy or irrelevant to your website.

      Hope this helps! Good luck!

        No, as long as not deleting analytics account when you upgrade it is ok, just a code update. That said I am a cautious chap so I would peel out some important data on the off chance... but spend little time on it, just for safety.

          Hi John,

          Thanks for the answer. Just a quick one, will this lose the previous records?

          Cheers

            It seems you are using the old gs.js page tracking on the site. Looking at cogri
            Maybe replace the tracking code with the new Analytics.js?

            Anayltics.js has some new tracking features compared to the old ga.js and might be the reason why you aren't able to see data & statistics.

            Available here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/upgrade/reference/gajs-analyticsjs

            It can take a couple of days for GA to update... as well.

              Hi John,

              Thank you for getting in touch. I had analytics set up before the migration and I have kept the same tracking code for the new site. I figured that it would be ok as the domain and URL's are exactly the same apart from the fact that the old ones had .aspx on the end.

                Have you set up Analytics on the new site? Just need a bit more info on how you set it up.

                  Google Analytics Goals - Button Tracking

                  Does anyone know if there is a really easy way to track a button in Google Analytics yourself? It seems that most button click goal setups involve some use of tricky code and I'm wondering if there is a much easier way to do this that will allow us to simply setup and track certain button clicks as goal conversions in Analytics. Your help here is much appreciated!

                  Tasks for Google Analytics training

                  Hi Mozzers, I'm delivering some Google Analytics (Fundamentals level) training, and trying to make it was fun and as interesting as possible... which is quite a challenge when it comes to GA. I was just wondering if you're aware of training tasks, or interactions, I could bring into this kind of training session? The group are particularly interested in user journeys and the effectiveness of content. Thanks!

                  No-indexed pages are still showing up as landing pages in Google Analytics

                  Hello, My website is a local job board. I de-indexed all of the job listing pages on my site (anything that starts with http://www.localwisejobs.com/job/). When I search site:localwisejobs.com/job/, nothing shows up. So I think that means the pages are not being indexed. When I look in Google Analytics at Acquisition > Search Engine Optimization > Landing Pages, none of the job listing pages show up. But when I look at Acquisition > Channels > Organic and then click Landing Page as the primary dimension, the /job pages show up in there. Why am I seeing this discrepency in Organic Landing pages? And why would the /job pages be showing up as landing pages even though they aren't indexed?

                  Google Analytics Real Time Not Working! :(

                  Hello Everyone, Today, the real time feature in my google analytics stopped working. I am able to see that traffic is visiting my site, but not in real time. The real time count is usually at 0. But, there are some instances where real time will come back online, but there will be only 1 unique visitor.  At any given time, our website usually has 20 visitors or so..Has anyone encountered this issue? Where should i start looking for fixes? What are the possible problems? Thanks!

                  Google Analytics - Next Page Path is the Same URL?

                  Hey Everyone, I have a Google analytics question. I'm looking through a client's site and when I look at the next page path, I get the same URL as the next path. For example, on the homepage, the next page path I get is the homepage again? This happens for all URL's, is this an implementation error? Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

                  Is it possible to use Google Tag Manager to pass a user’s text input into a form field to Google analytics?

                  Hey Everyone, I finally figured out how to use auto event tracking with Google Tag Manager, but didn't get the data I wanted. I want to see what users are typing into the search field on my site (the URL structure of my site isn't set up properly to use GA's built-in site search tracking). So, I set up the form submit event tracking in Google Tag Manager and used the following as my event tracking parameters: Category: Search Action: Search Value When I test and look in Google Analytics I just see: "search" and "search value." I wanted to see the text that I searched on my site. Not just the Action and Category of the event.... Is what I'm trying to do even possible? Do I need to set up a different event tracking parameter? Thanks everyone!
