GA Regex Help Needed!
-
Hi mozzers,
I am just discovering the RegEx world so I need your help. I would like to create an advanced segment to track 40 specific pages that have very different URIs from each other.
Can you tell me how using RegEx?
The dimension would be "landing pages" then not sure...
Thanks

Thank you Meme!!

you got many wildcards bur this one is quite straightforwardif you write:
/(.*)ward/ --> you're matching /ward/ and any thing which contains that word at the end like /forward/
if you write /(.+)ward/--> you're forcing that should be something before so you're takin /forward/ but not /ward/

Thanks Mememax
Can you tell me more about the wild card (.*)?
-
this site has a good syntax table which summarizes all the parameters you will need. http://www.regular-expressions.info/reference.html
mainly you want to use the OR parameter like(this|this2|this3|thisN) also wild card like (.*) may be helpful.

Need REGEX help
Hi Mozzers, I have multiple filters in one of the GA accounts I manage. I just created new pages that have URLs containing the keyword "spring" (location in texas) and wanted to filter out spring in the GA Spring profile(screenshot) . My issue is it will filter all the URLs containing the kw spring and the website has multiple blog post containing the same kw (spring). So what I need is a Regex formula so I can make sure I track only the Spring tx traffic and not the blog posts. Thanks for letting me know how can I do that! xejc38l.png

Help! Organic traffic decreased 75%.
Hi all, I've had fairly steady organic traffic to my website (www.toptienmobiel.nl) for the last 2 years. Since the beginning of march however I've noticed that the organic traffic was decreasing. Up until now my total organic traffic has decreased to about a quarter of what it was. It doesn't seem to be a penalty, since I still have most of my important keywords on the first page. They've decreased significantly though, mostly from the top 3 to 7+ position. Any idea on what may have been the reason for this sudden decrease? My link profile is still natural and I haven't done anything radical to the website concerning the backlinks or on-page elements. Could it be an algorithmic (Panda / Penguin) update? Thanks in advance!
