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.

Why No Goal is recorded in Google Analytics
Hello, I am not sure if i made an error. Can someone please point out. On our sales form, when a user submits the form, the URL displayed is - https://x-y.com/thank-you-2/ I created a Goal like this - 1 ) Under Goal set up, i choose Template option 2 ) Under Goal description, i choose Type > Destination 3 ) and finally, in Goal details field, destination equals to /thank-you-2/ But, no Goal is being tracked. In the first step, should i have selected 'Custom' instead of 'Template' Thanks

Conflicting data in Google Analytics
Hi Guys I've been looking at the data for a client in Google analytics and I was wondering if anyone knows why some of the data doesn't tally up. In my case its the following: Under Aquisition
Reporting & Analytics | | Relative
No of Sessions for a Keyword shown in Organic Search tab (compared to)
No of Clicks for a Query in the Search Engine Optimisation tab For example, for a brand term, Google are showing 17 Sessions in Organic Search.
For the same term Google are showing 90 Clicks in the Queries section of Search Engine Optimisation OK, we know that Google are a little cloak and dagger regarding keyword data but surely Sessions and Clicks for the same keyword should be identical unless I'm missing something.0 -
Links On Expired Domains
Does anybody know if a link on an expired domain affects your SEO? I'm just asking because the SEO agency we used before used to create websites and then link to our company - very spammy. We have since ditched this agecny, however they wanted an extortionate amount to remove these links. Therefore, we decided to wait until these domains expired and then the links wouldn't exist. However, I am now completing a link audit and some of these sites are still appearing in the results (obtained from Link Research Tools) but I cannot access the links because the domains have expired. Can anyone help?

Setting up Webmaster Tools correctly - naked domain DNS error and sub-domains question
I'm trying to get our domain (verdantly.com) set up correctly in Google Webmaster Tools. Currently, I have three "sites" setup: blog.verdantly.com (wordpress.com blog redirected to this subdomain) www.verdantly.com verdantly.com The subdomain blog and www show up without errors. However, the naked domain shows a DNS error. I've checked the DNS settings at the registrar and don't see any issues. So here are my questions: 1. Am I correct in setting up the naked domain AND the subdomains separately in Webmaster tools? 2. How do I track down / resolve the source of the DNS errors at the naked domain? Thanks!
