What's the best enterprise analytic solution for a website with 100+ Million Visits/Month
-
Hi Guys,
I'm looking for an enterprise solution for my companies website that currently gets 100+ Million visits a month? We use the free version of Google Analytic but the sampling levels we get are just too small.
We have the budget to get something substantial -- the question is what solution should we go with?
Thanks,
Nicolas

Too many variables but it probably will be helpful. Ill send you the link when I publish.....
Some charge by PPC spend; some charge by number of visits; some charge by number of users and amount of modules used; etc....

Thanks Mark. That really helps with the footsteps to my research for a proper analytics tool. Is it possible to give me estimates into pricing or are there too many variables to give me an estimated cost?

If you truly want a recommendation for an enterprise system then you need to further define what specific things in a system you feel are most important (Price, mobile, PPC, Social media, ease of use, multiple clients or one, etc.) . Let me give you some examples:
Omniture- Irving is right....this system is the most robust enterprise system available today. We were managing $5 million in PPC spend a month and traffic volumes that were significantly larger than what you are talking about, over a number of large clients. Omniture is used by at least 50% of the top ad agencies in the country. It is a MASSIVE system that can do almost everything you need and a bunch of stuff that you haven't even considered. But it will take some time to learn it.....it is very expensive....etc. etc.
Extron: This system is significantly less money and provides solid analytics over the lifecycle of a visitor and customer. Not as robust in some areas as Omniture, but if you are focused on the lifecycle of a customer, it is very solid.
Webtrends: Also affordable, and one of the best if you have a huge focus on mobile and social media monitoring.
Wordstream: Very affordable and focused on keyword research and PPC value with some solid baseline analytics.
ShinyStat: A broad analytics tool that is great with video analytics and serp monitoring and has some other cool trending analytics that can be helpful.
Again, depending on what you are looking for would determine what your recommendation will be. In the next few weeks I will be publishing on SEOMOZ a list of the top 25-30 enterprise analytics solutions and their value, benefits, features and drawbacks.....hopefully you will find it useful.....
Good luck. If this helps please show me the thumbs up.

Why would you recommend that over Enterprise Google Analytics? The TCO for implementing Enterprise Google Analytics is tremendously low. Is implementation for Omniture relatively easy?
Lastly, there is no learning curve there for myself and the rest of the staff if we went with the Enterprise GA solution which is a big plus.

Moving wordpress themes, any best practices on setting up Google Analytics for the change?
We currently have a mess of filters and views in our Google Analytics instance. We have a chance to make a clean start. Wondering if creating a whole new property is a good idea? Or just some additional views? Any other pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Time For New Website To Rank?
We've been working on a site for the past couple months and going to be launching in a couple weeks. How long does it take for Google to establish a "stabilized" ranking for the site and various pages? The main homepage will have its targeted keywords and each product page will have its own targeted keywords. We have about 100 total pages for the site. I know rankings may fluctuate initially but trying to get an idea of when the rankings are stabilized before we start working on the ongoing SEO like earning backlinks, changing on-page optimization, etc to be able to track changes in rankings over time.

Reverse an Ecommerce Transaction in Analytics
I am looking for help on using Googles Reverse an Ecommerce Transaction in Analytics work flow documented here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1037443?hl=en&ref_topic=1037062 Essentially an incorrect transaction was processed that was for such a large number that it is really messing up reporting. I have never used Googles outlined process and from my research it looks like it might not reverse the transaction for the date it was placed but ad a negative amount to offset it on the date submitted. This will still work for year of year reporting but it will mess up the data for two different days in one month. If someone who had done this before has any insight please chime in thanks! Here is a support thread about the reverse transaction messing up a different days data. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/analytics/reverse$20transaction/analytics/gDiVNJDwx5I/BwlNJ9D6Lp8J

Analytics - 'other'
When i look in GA under Channels (under Acquisition) 'other' is listed What is 'other' ? I have been told its other unidentified channels as they did not allow 3rd party cookies or surfers were in anonymous/private mode. Other is usually organic traffic that couldn't be identified for the aformentioned reasons. This data is encrypted and available but it violates Google guidelines as they are not allowed to pass personal info//data to third parties so it is automatically filtered. But they are not 'Not Provided' (since that still shows under organic) but is usually/mainly some form of organic visits. Hence Seo can take credit for much of that traffic, is this correct ? Many Thanks

How do I set a filter in Google Analytics?
I want to filter out direct traffic from the service provider msn. For some reason they are crawling our traffic and its throwing off my data. So I want to exclude direct, but only from msn. Would I set my first filter for direct then msn or vice versa? Thanks

Google Analytics-Unique visitors?
Does organic search data show unique visitors or all visits? For example, if someone ( a single person) visits my site multiple times after searching the same keyword phrase, does that show in my analytics data as 1 hit from that keyword, or all hits? Thanks!

Does Google Analytics use your data against you?
I couldn't find this question answered anywhere in Q&A, so I apologize if it's a duplicate of another post. I heard, about a year ago on either Web Pro World, or Warrior Forum that Google uses your visitor data in your Google Analytic account to rank your site. Someone said that when they took out the Google code, their site went from the third to the first page within 48 hours. That was then verified over the next couple of weeks by others. Their thought was that regardless of the optimized page and incoming link, if the site wasn't getting visitors, then it would be penalized. Since Google has the data, they would be able to use it. I then started using another, paid, solution - getclicky.com. While I like clicky, there is some info Google has that clicky doesn't, everyone integrates with Google analytics - like SEOmoz, and I'm paying a monthly fee. Now that I'm a part of a community of experts, what do you think? Have you noticed Google ranking you based on your analytics data? Has anyone experienced this, or heard about it before? Because I'd like to go back to using Google analytics. Thanks!
