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.

Tracking a Redirect
Recently a client of mine had a new site developed and had changed their domain, so the old URL is now redirecting to the new URL. They want to be able to track referral traffic in the analytics so we can decipher how much direct traffic is coming in from people typing in the old URL. Is this possible and if so, can I have a guide in doing so? Thanks!

Tracking Google places (7 pack listing) traffic in google analytics
Is there a way to see Google Places traffic (traffic from users clicking through the 7 pack listings) segmented in Google analytics ? Normally is it just lumped together with the organic traffic ? Can you see the search phrases used to find your site, or do they also show up under 'not provided' when from Google Places. Im aware i can see some limited data in the Google Places analytics, but these seem to be 2 days behind when ever i view them.

Universal Analytics & Google Tag Manager - Track URLs that include hashes
Does anyone have any experience tracking URLs that include hashes (#) using Universal Analytics and Google Tag Manager? Can it be done using GTM's container for UA, using the "more settings" options? Or building another tag to work with the GTM UA container? The fallback I'm considering is implementing the UA code in GTM for every page as Custom HTML with the "ga('send', 'pageview', location.pathname + location.search + location.hash);" solution, rather than GTM's specialized UA tag. I'm not yet sure what problems may arise from that, if any. Thanks in advance.

When I tried to connect to google analytics yesterday. There was a connection issue with Moz & GA. I refreshed page hoping it would help. Now it won't let me choose domain. When I view campaign it says I should connect properties.

GA profile when migration domains
I'm migrating a .co.uk domain to .com and am trying to decide if I should reuse the same Google Profile (if I can?) or create a new one. If I choose to reuse the same profile so it has historical data, does anyone know if it's just a matter of keeping the same UA profile identifier in place on the page? Or do I have to change anything on the actual profile in GA as well to say "start pulling data from .com now"?

Is there any web analytics tool that let us track number of outgoing clicks (and visits) ?
I just wonder if we can measure outgoing visits from a specific URL with an online tool or not?
