Hi,

Are you sure your are looking in the right place? The old version of Google Analytics is for example not showing this data, so you'll have to be in the new version. That will look like this. It could take also a couple of hours before you're data will be shown in Google Analytics if you just connected your accounts.

Hope this helps!

Can Segment capture organic traffic? If so is it more reliable than Google Analytics?

Hi mozzers, We just learned that our standard GA hasn't been as reliable as we hoped so and we are trying to find other ways to track organic sessions. Which solution would you consider? Is Segment one of them? If so, is it more reliable than Google Analytics? Thanks

Google Analytics Question - Impressions & Queries Up, Sessions Down

I'm working with a client who, according to the Google Query report, impressions and sessions are up since we've started work with them about 6 months ago, but Google sessions are down. In moz, we're seeing a gradual, but steady increase in search visibility specifically with Google. Note: this is all organic. From when we started tracking queries, the first month we were tracking there were 43,581 impressions and 690 click throughs for the month. This past month there were 98,293 queries and 1015 clicks throughs for the month (granted not year over year data) - of these 1,015 clicks, 995 of them were from web. However, for those same time periods, sessions from Google are down over 30% - 1,750 vs. 1,189. I'm not sure how to interpret this. I realize that clicks and sessions are not a straightforward comparison, but I would think that if clicks were up according to the query report that sessions would also be up. Is it that some of these clicks are bouncing and therefore not being tracked as a session? Is there a potential issue with how data is being tracked?

Different transaction data social channel on Google Analytics

Hi there, On my ecommerce, in order to find out the number of transactions that came directly from my social channels I go to Acquisition->Channels and then I look at the column Transactions for the Social channel. Surprisingly this number differ from the one that I find under Acquisition->Social->Overview and then I select Transaction under Conversions. Then I look at Last interaction Social Conversions to find the number of transactions. The two quantities are totally different for a month window and they should be the same. Can any of you explain to me the reason why? Thanks and regards

Editing Google Analytics eCommerce Javascript for Volusion

Does anyone know how to edit the ecommerce javascript with Volusion dynamic variables? I thought I did it correctly but none of the information got recorded in GA. It recorded that there was a transaction made but not info on the purchase price, order #, etc. This is the current code I am using: NOTE: In Volusions customer support center they provided this information: Where Order-Specific Information is Generated Order-specific information can be generated by JavaScript on the OrderFinished.asp page within Volusion. On this page, two JavaScript arrays will be initialized that advanced users may need to be aware of. The arrays and their contents are as follow:
Order Array Contents Order[0] = Order ID
    Order[1] = Unused
    Order[2] = Payment Amount
    Order[3] = Affiliate Commisionable Value
    Order[4] = Sales Tax
    Order[5] = Total Shipping Cost
    Order[6] = Billing City
    Order[7] = Billing State
    Order[8] = Billing Country OrderDetails Array Contents OrderDetails[X][0] = Order ID
    OrderDetails[X][1] = Order Detail ID
    OrderDetails[X][2] = Product Code
    OrderDetails[X][3] = Product Name
    OrderDetails[X][4] = (unused)
    OrderDetails[X][5] = Product Price
    OrderDetails[X][6] = Quantity Note that in the above example, X refers to a line item number (beginning from zero). Note that there can be multiple Order Details arrays - one for each item contained within an order. I'm a newbie at Analytics installation and could really use any help. Thanks!
