Google Analytics: how many visits from country Google domains?
-
Hello, I manage a site with visitors from many different countries.
With Google Analytics, it is normal to see the number of visitors from each search engine.
However, I would like to identify the number of visitors from each Google-search contry domain.
How many visitors from Google.com?
How many from Google.co.uk.
And from Google.co.zm?
And so on.
Anybody knows if this is possible and if yes, how can it be done?
Thank you in advance, Dario

Ok, I understand. Thank you for your help!

I am not 100% sure about this, but this is the normal way of consideration. Normally, Google also looks at which data center the user has been querying and based on that it decided the location. It tries its best to give you the location accurately, but sometimes, the mechanism fails, therefore the not set comes in.

Hello, thank you very much, I have checked the report you suggest.
So, if for example I see 2050 visits from Google | Australia, this means that the 2050 visits entered from a search in Google.co.au.
On the other hand, if a visitor from Australia was did a search using Google.com, his visit will be counted in: Google | (Not set)
Is this correct?
Thank you,
Dario

There are some instances when Google is unable to decipher the country/tld for a visitor. Eg. Opening Google.com in Australia. Thats why the Google (not set)

Go to your GA account. Then, click on traffic sources>search engines.
This will give you a report containing Google, Bing and other search engines. If you have visitors from multiple countries, you would be seeing Google mentioned multiple times in your report.
If you see carefully, you will the table header (just above the listing and this would normally say:
Source (a dropdown), None (another dropdown) followed by visits, page/visits, time on site, bounce rates etc etc.
click on the none dropdown and select country/territory from the menu that appears. You should be able to see different country visits from Google.
Hope that helps.

Google analytics suddenly stopped tracking all my landing pages
Hey guys. I love the new update of GA. Looks so clean. So, of course, I was excited to see how my landing pages were doing. I went to behavior, all content, all pages. And I noticed it's only showing me 19 pages out of the 93 I have indexed. And none of the top ones at all! Can't find them anywhere in GA! Anyone seen this before? Thank you so much

Direct traffic spam on Google Analytics: how can you identify and filter it?
One of my smaller clients noticed a huge jump in direct traffic visits last month. The bounce rate was around 97% so I'm pretty certain that most of the traffic was illegitimate. I know how to filter out spam referrals and organic keywords in Google Analytics. However I'm not sure what to do about direct traffic spam. Are there recommendations for filtering this out? Can I identify spam IP addresses?

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!

Tracking time spent on a section of a website in Google Analytics
Hi, I've been asked by a client to track time spent or number of pages visited on a specific section of their website using Google Analytics but can't see how to do this. For example, they have a "golf" section within their site and want to measure how many people either visit 5 page or more within the golf section or spend at least 6 minutes browsing the various golf section pages. Can anyone advise how if this can be done, and if so, how I go about it. 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!

Setting up Google Analytics default URL
If someone has set: the default url in Google Analytics to a non-www address (http://mysite.com) then placed the UA tracking script from that GA account within the CMS framework of the website... ... and then set the permanent 301 redirect in the htaccess file to redirect to the www address (http://www.mysite.com). How less accurrate will my GA analytics measurements be considering the default url within GA is non-www and the permanent 301 redirect in htacess is to the www-address? Anyone know how reliable GA reports are until the default url in GA analytics is changed to match what is the redirected url in htaccess file? _Cindy
