How can you see the conversion rates for the referral traffic?
For example I want to see if any of the facebook visits to my site resulted in a purchase.

Wow, I really missed that one. I consider myself an informed user of analytics but couldn't crack open this one!
Thanks!

i have learned that the hard way - you can never assume
-
Nice! You just taught me something.

Good point. I was assuming she already had goals set up.

Hi Rachel
The report Marisa pointed you to is a good way of seeing ecommerce at a glance, but for your specific referral report, see:
Traffic Sources > Sources > Referrals.
Once you're there, click on 'ecommerce' to see conversion stats.
To see specific social media reports, go to:
Traffic Sources > Social > Conversions
Once you're in social conversions, you can see the visits that resulted in a conversion from FB (just make sure you define what type of 'conversion' you're looking at with the drop down - these are based on the goals you might or might not have set up.
-
You need to first set up goals or ecommerce tracking then you can look at the goals and ecommerce tabs in traffic sources or other reports to see the data
-
Go to Conversion > Goals > Overview, and then click on Source/Medium.
I've included a screenshot that should be helpful.

Some questions on how to set up a multi-visit advanced segment in Google Analytics
Hi I would like some assistance / clarification on how to set up a user segment so that it can track user behavior over multiple visits. Basically I have a campaign set up and want to see conversions - even if they hit the site and then convert later on another visit. I've read that you can do this (over up to 30 days). So I start off by filtering TRAFFIC SOURCE - easy enough. But then I have to add under "advanced" correct? But then when I set the next filter to the GOAL I want, I only get "by session" and "by hit" as options. The blog post I read made it sound like only "by user" would then really do multi visits. Is "by user" only an e-commerce tracking option? (which I don't have set up) Is there another way/path to get the info I need? Thank you!

Why are plus signs (+) suddenly showing up in Google Analytics organic search keywords reports?
Since June 13, 2013, the number of organic search queries containing a plus sign (+) has gone up over 1,000% compared to the previous period on my site in Google Analytics. These plus signs appear to be taking the place of spaces in these search queries (i.e. "word1+word2+word3"). This appears to be almost (or completely) Google organic traffic, not other search engines. Since I highly doubt searcher behavior would change so suddenly, I'm trying to figure out why Google is replacing spaces with plus signs. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

AW Stats vs Google Analytics
Hey Moz Community, I am looking to get opinions on the best practice for analytics/traffic analysis. From experience I know that AW Stats reads high and Google Analytics reads low for traffic for reason in this article http://www.smartz.com/blog/2009/01/23/analytic-confusion-%E2%80%93-awstats-vs-google-analytics/ It drives me a little nuts how far off both are for some pages. I have one article that shows 100 views (GA) and AW stats shows 5 times that number of views. Any suggestions or systems you recommend? Thanks

Conflicting Analytics: Getclicky vs. Google Analytics
Removal of an old getclicky code (and installation of new tracking code) from my site after some changes resolved inaccuracies in my page view/bounce rate information. Prior to adding the correct getclicky code, getclicky was showing 95% plus bounce rate on my site. I knew this was wrong because GA showed around 40%. Ironically, now that my getclicky account is working (showing a 30% bounce rate), GA bounce rate is steadily climbing. Is it best to just stick with one analytics account so that the codes don't conflict? Is it possible to have two accurate analytics accounts at the same time?
