Internal site referrers
-
Hi,
So I have a segment of my website-let’s call it /examplea, I am trying to figure out how many visits I have to /examplea from all other areas of my website i.e. /exampleb, /examplec etc to /examplea so almost internal site refers to a particular segment of my website,
Any thoughts on how to do this within Google analytics ?

Thanks for the responses, I am also testing with setting up new profiles and filters but i dont think i will be going along the road of new code on every page
Thank you,

This is mostly right. The issue is that only the top 10 referring internal pages will be shown in this report.
If a fuller look is needed, one option is resorting to the API. GA definitely has the data, just doesn't have a report to show it.
It does not appear that custom reports can help with this either.
Currently (for my own curiosity), I'm testing if setting up a new profile and some filters would work. I can report back if it's of interest.
The most extreme solution I can think of would be to include an entirely new tracking snippet on every page in that section of your site. That would certainly work.

In the new Google Analytics interface: Content --> Site content --> Pages --> find and click on your page --> select the Navigation summary tab (it's above the graph) --> Have fun

PDF web traffic hitting our site
Hi there, Over the last few months our traffic has spiked due to irrelevant pdf documents sending us crap traffic, our bounce rate is sky high as well as other metrics. I don't want to just filter out this traffic in GA rather try and stop our site from being attacked. Any advice on a way forward would be great. Thanks

Losing referrer data on http link that redirects to an https site when on an https site. Is this typical or is something else going on here?
I am trying to resolve a referral data issue. Our client noticed that their referrals from one of their sites to another had dropped to almost nothing from being their top referrer. The referring site SiteA which is an HTTPs site, held a link to SiteB, which is also an HTTPs site, so there should be no loss, however the link to SiteB on SiteA had the HTTP protocol. When we changed the link to the HTTPs protocol, the referrals started flowing in. Is this typical? If the 301 redirect is properly in place for SiteB, why would we lose the referral data?

Wordpress SEO vs Regular Site SEO
Hey Mozzers I'm building a Wordpress-powered site (self hosted on different domain). I know there are different plug-ins and whatnot for Wordpress SEO, but what exactly am I getting myself into? Am I required to use these plug-ins even if I already know how to do regular SEO on-page coding, or are they mainly dumbed-down tools for mom-bloggers to use? Am I still able to use Google Analytics as I am with a regular site?

Google Maps not passing referral data
Google Maps is not passing referral data (URLs, not KWs). Google+ Local is referring, but nothing from maps. Maps referrals appear to be coming across as direct. Any ideas? We haven't found anything online, one of the guys at the office documented what we did find, using Chrome's debugger - http://manofactionmetrics.com/2012/11/02/google-maps-not-passing-any-referral-data/

Facebook referrals
Does anyone know how to find this out. When I use Google Analytics to monitor a website, I am receiving referrals from Facebook, but it does not tell me the source on Facebook. Only that it is coming from Facebook somewhere.

If a site has 301 redirect - Will the Analytics of the target site show it as a referral or as the traffic source it came from?
Lets say I have a site www.abc.com and I rederect that site to www.xyz.com. If ABC.com is still ranking for keyword X and orgnically someone searches for X and they click on the ABC.com listing - In the XYZ site analytics (which is the target site) does it show as organic or referall, direct? Thanks
