    Hi All,

    This might be a silly question, but for all the properties I monitor in Google Analytics, I'm now showing no data for SEO Queries under Acquisition for the past 6 days. Normally I would expect a few day delay in queries, but nothing for 6 days is somewhat peculiar especially as it was functioning fine prior to November 12th. Does anyone have insight into what might be going on? Thanks!

      I am seeing no search query data before Oct 22, 2015 in my Google Web Master and Google Analytics. Is anyone else facing this issue?

      Please see image in the URL. Google Web Master does not let me set the data before Oct 23, 2015.

          Has this been fixed? We're still seeing a couple of clients who have zeros on their Google Analytics Queries report, but others that seem to be working fine.

          When we look at these clients' Search Console reports we're also seeing nothing. The client I was just reviewing isn't getting a huge amount of search traffic, but it is over 500 search visitors a month. There should be something, right?

              i believe this is due to the issue with search console and this should be fixed by end of week, as per Google Tweet.

                  Maybe something to do with this:

                  http://searchengineland.com/google-search-console-search-analytics-data-delayed-but-google-is-working-on-a-fix-236374

                  Google are apparently working to fix the bug in Search Console with Search Analytics data, which would affect Google Analytics.

                  "An Update on the Search Analytics report in Google Search console

                  Data have been missing in Search Analytics since November 12th.

                  The team is aware of it and currently working on a fix.

                  It should be back to normal by the end of the week."

                    Thanks Dmitrii,

                    Yeah, looks like it's a broken connection between the two. Or  simply yet another change Google decided to make suddenly.

                      Thanks Ria,

                      I've seen the (not set) for a bit now, but the absolute flatline with no data, not even (not set) since the 12th is troubling. So likely they've changed things up again or perhaps a bug? Thanks again!

                        Hi, Ria.

                        The subject in question is why number of impressions are being shown as 0. I understand that there are lots of queries which are being as not set now, but that doesn't explain the quantity of overall amount dropping to 0.

                          If you're seeing (not set), I suspect this might be the explanation:

                          https://www.seroundtable.com/google-analytics-seo-report-not-set-is-not-a-bug-21102.html

                          "In Search Analytics if you look at the numbers of the queries that you see there, you will sometimes see that we show a top aggregated, maybe a hundred queries, and in a table below if you add the numbers together, you might see 70 queries or something like that.

                          And the difference there is essentially queries that we filter out, and in Search Console we don’t show them separately and in Google Analytics they chose to call them Not Set.

                          So that is what you are seeing there, not something completely different, its not showing the difference that you’d have to calculate yourself."

                          Unless, they've changed things up again.

                            Hi there.

                            Surprisingly, it happens to me as well. I have no idea why this exactly happening, however, I do have a suggestion.

                            Simply go to Search Analytics section of Google webmaster tools (or as it's know now - Search console) and see all your data there. Google analytics is pulling all that data from GWT anyway, so, maybe there is a bug or new change in GA-GWT connections.

                            Hope this helps.

                              How to change domains in Google Analytics without losing the data

                              Hi there, We recently changed our domain from .COM to .NET so that all our subdomains from external pages matched. Right now in Google Console we have our new .NET website being tracked, but in GA we are still tracking .COM. It is also causing issues with MOZ crawling our site because of the .COM/.NET discrepancy. My question is what is the best way to change our Google Analytics from .COM to .NET without losing historical data and what considerations do we need to change before implementing this? Our team was concerned that just downloading the old data would be too vast and it we wouldn't be able to continue manipulating it dynamically in GA. Thanks!!

                              Using logical operators (AND / OR) in Google Analytics Goal Funnels

                              When setting up a Funnel within Google Analytics, is it possible to use logical operators (e.g. OR, AND) in the first (required) step of the funnel? For example, suppose I want to track users who visit page1.html AND page2.html before proceeding to the destination goal. I've entered two pages separated by the OR operator, and neither the "Verify this Goal" nor "Save" produces an error message - is it safe to assume that this is working as I intend? Thanks in advance!

                              Is there a way to find out who the admin of a Google Analytics account is?

                              We have a client who has been searching high and low to gain access to the GA account that is tied to their website, but previous agencies keep stating they don't have access. Is there a way to find out who the admins are on a GA account with the tracking number so we can reach out to that person and ask them to admin the client?

                              Will 301 redirects (Same Domain) show as referral traffic in Analytics?

                              For an eCommerce site we have 301'd legacy product pages to new product pages. Is all that traffic going to show up as referral traffic from our own domain in Google Analytics? If so, is there any way to preserve original source/medium info or will all the source/medium info be our own domain since there is a 301 redirect?

                              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?

                              Our new alumni application is going be tested at domain uva.imodules.com .  We are going to collect traffic data with a Google analytics account number UA-884652-XX. So going to uva.imodules.com/myPage.html would send its data to Google Analytics with that account number.     Then when it is ready for production we are going to just change the domain name of the application and switch the DNS over to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu .  So going to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu /myPage.html would send its data to  Google Analtics with that SAME account number.  Aside from having the testing domain data in the same profile are there any other issues/problems we may run into?

                              Google Analytics: Difference Between Goal Conversions & Goal Completions

                              When using Google Analytics, what is the difference between total goal conversions and total goal completions? We have many goals set up in a lead generation environment. Therefore, the only element of conversion is submitted a lead and arriving on the "Thank You" page. THose thank you pages are tagged accordingly. When we run reports though, the number of "Total Goal Conversions" and "Total Goal Completions" never match up.

                              Google Analytics - paid & unpaid visits messed up

                              I guess Google Analytics messes up my paid and unpaid visits. In the list of top 10 kw's sending non-paid traffic it shows 5 very short kw's that we don't rank for at all (checked with RankTracker - we are not in first 50 search results). But these are the kw's we advertise for... One more proof: Webmaster Tools 'Search queries' shows 10 times less 'Clicks' from organic search than Google Analytics. Is there anyone who is experiencing this kind of problems with GA? Is there anything you can do with it?
