Google analytics - landing pages
-
Hello, I have a website and it contains landing pages.
after tracking and analyzing the data in Google Analytics , I found out that the traffic for the whole site is affected by the visits to the landing page.
I mean, the bounce rate is less than one minute. this is because users fill their details in the landing pages and leave my website.
to improve my website, I need clear data about the traffic, bounce rate etc. in my website. I also need
can you help me solve this problem
- I thought about create another account in Google Analytics and set it to my websites pages (not including the landing pages). and keep the current code for the landing pages.
my question is regarding this: Is it legal to use 2 different GA code (each one of them belong to different account) in the same domain ?
- can you provide me with more information about Multi Account in Google Analytics, and how can I use it to divide the traffic in my website between the traffic and the data for the landing pages and for the website itself ?

you will just have to pay around the the include and exclude filters to get the results you want. If you could "mark" your landing page commonly that you can then exclude them filters eg a string of text or something, You will just have to have a good think about it
Sorry I could not have been more helpful, but there are loads of guide on how to use filters in this way on the internet.

I created a segment in my Google Analytics account to show data without the visits to the landing pages.
when I checked which URL google analytics excludes I saw some pages that are not "Landing Pages" like the pages for another language www.domain.com/fra also "contact us","Agreement","Log in page", "Create Account" in addition to many pages that are not Landing pages.My question is: is there any way to remove these pages from the Landing Pages group that google analytics created ?
- Can I edit this group and remove pages that are not Landing pages so I get clear data ?

How can i create an absolute separation from the traffic I get to the landing pages and to my site? I just want to split the data to 2 sections:
1. Data only about the visitors in my site
2. Data only about the visitors in my landing pages.
I remind you guys that unfortunately in this time I have the same tacking ID in my landing pages and in my main site.
My goal is to separate the data and get clear data about each one of the visits to the landing pages and to the vists to my website.It’s not better to move the landing pages to subdomain and create a new google analytics code for them?

I'm not sure there's a penalty for using 2 lots of code but there's no need to as Paddy says.
The only time I have used two lots of code is when a third party has set up Analytics and can't or won't hand Admin rights over so the two codes were used so that the website owner could start to collects their own data without losing the historical third party stats.

don't put the 2 different analytics codes on your page!
What you can do is use segments or profile filters (you can have multi profile for one site) to split your data up

Complete loss of Organic visits within Google Analytics??
Hey guys, I have a pressing query that's really puzzled me! I've just been going through Google Analytics and noticed that there has been a complete drop off of all my organic visitors from May 7. All other traffic mediums are unaffected so there is no issue with the Analytics code recording visits. I haven't received any penalty and my rankings have actually improved in the last month. This is proper bizarre. Any ideas? MjLmL70.png

Google Analytics Set-Up for site with both http & https pages
We have a client that migrated to https last September. The site uses canonicals pointing to the https version. The client IT team is reluctant to put 301 redirects from the non-secure to the secure and we are not sure why they object. We ran a screaming frog report and it is showing both URLs for the same page (http and https). The non-secure version has a canonical pointing to the secure version. For every secure page there is a non-secure version in ScreamingFrog so Google must be ignoring the canonical and still indexing the page however, when we run a site: we see that most URLs are the secure version. At that time we did not change the Google Analytics setup option to use: "https" instead of "http" BUT GA appears to be recording data correctly. Yesterday we set up a new profile and selected "https" but our question is: Does the GAnalytics http/https version make a difference if so, what difference is it?

Google Analytics to sub domains
Hi, I have a site xyz.com and two separate sites on sub domains xyz.com/abc and xyz.com/def. What's the best way to go about with GA such that I can get all the data in the same place. Should I use the GA code for xyz.com on sub domains as well? Or should I create separate profiles?

Why is Webmaster Tools not Linking Correctly Google Analytics?
I have a global site with .com as the US site and then /country for all other markets i.e. .com/uk .com/de etc. Each site has it's own WMT profile. Each site has it's own GA profile. Since Google added Search Engine Optimization to the GA interface, I can't track these sites separately under this new feature. It seems to me that it can only be associated with a single WMT profile at a time or rather that WMT can only be associated with a single GA profile at a time. The numbers for the UK and US site are identical, but when I try and link the UK WMT account with GA it removes it from the US profile and vice versa.

Strange increase in Direct traffic in Google analytics
For past 2 weeks, several of our sites have strange increase in direct traffic in Google Analytics. we also have another tracking code, and in this account we don't have any big changes, so this is very strange what is happening. We didn't changed any codes, and none of the changes were done to application. Any ideas why this is happening? z7ME9.jpg
