Google analytics - landing pages
-
Hello, I have a website and it contains landing pages.
after tracking and analyzing the data in Google Analytics , I found out that the traffic for the whole site is affected by the visits to the landing page.
I mean, the bounce rate is less than one minute. this is because users fill their details in the landing pages and leave my website.
to improve my website, I need clear data about the traffic, bounce rate etc. in my website. I also need
can you help me solve this problem
- I thought about create another account in Google Analytics and set it to my websites pages (not including the landing pages). and keep the current code for the landing pages.
my question is regarding this: Is it legal to use 2 different GA code (each one of them belong to different account) in the same domain ?
- can you provide me with more information about Multi Account in Google Analytics, and how can I use it to divide the traffic in my website between the traffic and the data for the landing pages and for the website itself ?

you will just have to pay around the the include and exclude filters to get the results you want. If you could "mark" your landing page commonly that you can then exclude them filters eg a string of text or something, You will just have to have a good think about it
Sorry I could not have been more helpful, but there are loads of guide on how to use filters in this way on the internet.

I created a segment in my Google Analytics account to show data without the visits to the landing pages.
when I checked which URL google analytics excludes I saw some pages that are not "Landing Pages" like the pages for another language www.domain.com/fra also "contact us","Agreement","Log in page", "Create Account" in addition to many pages that are not Landing pages.My question is: is there any way to remove these pages from the Landing Pages group that google analytics created ?
- Can I edit this group and remove pages that are not Landing pages so I get clear data ?

How can i create an absolute separation from the traffic I get to the landing pages and to my site? I just want to split the data to 2 sections:
1. Data only about the visitors in my site
2. Data only about the visitors in my landing pages.
I remind you guys that unfortunately in this time I have the same tacking ID in my landing pages and in my main site.
My goal is to separate the data and get clear data about each one of the visits to the landing pages and to the vists to my website.It’s not better to move the landing pages to subdomain and create a new google analytics code for them?

I'm not sure there's a penalty for using 2 lots of code but there's no need to as Paddy says.
The only time I have used two lots of code is when a third party has set up Analytics and can't or won't hand Admin rights over so the two codes were used so that the website owner could start to collects their own data without losing the historical third party stats.

don't put the 2 different analytics codes on your page!
What you can do is use segments or profile filters (you can have multi profile for one site) to split your data up

How do I exclude fake direct load traffic from networks in Google Analytics?
Starting on Friday 1/20, we noticed a huge, unnatural spike in Direct Load traffic. While researching where it was coming from, the big flags were huge spikes in countries that normally only have <5 sessions a month like Russia, Singapore, Brazil, etc., each sending 1400 a week, with >99% bounce rate and <0:00:05 average session duration. While looking into networks, we saw an influx in Networks that had never sent traffic before, each with >1300 sessions a week, 100% bounce rate, and 0:00:00 session duration. The list of these Networks are: astute hosting usa incorporated

Cross domain tracking Google Analytics
Hi there, Got a question on cross domain tracking: We have a couple of TLD's to serve localized content to our visitors, next to our main .com TLD where our app is running as well in a subdomain. Situation is this: Local sites:
Reporting & Analytics | | jorisbrabants
marketingsite.be
marketingsite.com.br
marketingsite.fr Main site: marketingsite.com
app.marketingsite.com Conversion gets triggered when somebody ends up in app.marketingsite.com/firstuse for example. People can sign up at the local site filling in their email but they end up in app.marketingsite.com/firstuse Reading this article on cross domain tracking I'm getting a bit confused on the setup of the tracking code itself. The sample code provided shows these two lines: ga('require', 'linker'); ga('linker:autoLink', ['maindomain.com','targetdomain.com']); Now the question 🙂 Is it correct when I think that maindomain should be replaced with our local TLD's on every one of those, and that targetdomain is where the conversion happens? In this case the .com site?0 -

Why did my home page fall off of google rankings?
My home page at www.smt-associates.com has been ranked well for various key word phrases for years. I've tried to optimize it for the search "Crystal Lake CPA Firm" and it always had ranked number 1-2. Now it doesn't even rank in the top 5 pages (actually I don't know which page it falls on). I did an on-page report card and it has an A rating. So, what is preventing Google from ranking my home page on page 1? There's not that much competition so this should be an easy ranking for me. I don't know how ling this has not been listed, but I did modify my site about 12-18 months ago with a new WP theme. Could the theme be the problem?

Get Stats on Search Box Usage, Using Google Analytics?
Let me preface this by first saying I am NOT using the Google Adsense Search feature. The question I am asking is pertaining to the standard search box that comes already coded in most .php blogs. In the Google Analytics, is there a way to tell how many people are searching using the search box? I've looked through the navigation and pathway options in analytics and I don't seem to see anything that definitively points to the number of people using the search box but, perhaps, I am overlooking it. Any insight?
