Analytics - content performance
-
Hi guys, is there any way to group specific pages together in analytics and just see how they have peroformed visit wise, etc?
I need to group some resort guides all with different names, it's tedious going through each one manually.
Help much appreciated as always!

The best way to do what I think you're trying to do would be to create some advaed segments.
Essentially you're just creating a group of pages and then only displaying data for those pages when the segment is applied.
Start with these two guides and come back and let me know if you're having trouble with either one:

Hello again.
Would it be easier to just exclude the ones you don't want? That way, you could just remove a few pages from the query if that is easier.
alternatively, you could tweak the GA tracking code, and add a custom variable for those pages you want to track together. See https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/gaTrackingCustomVariables?hl=no#pageLevel
The code could be something like:
_gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, // This custom var is set to slot #1\. Required parameter. 'Resort guide', // Your grouping name. Required parameter. 'Specific page title', // Sets the value of "Resort guide" to "Specific page title" for this particular article. Required parameter. 3 // Sets the scope to page-level. Optional parameter, but you should have it in this case ]); Good luck! Anders

Hi thanks for the reply.
Unfortunalye cannot add keywords and theres no pattern in the url to only grab ones i want.
It would be good if analytics from Google allowed you to make groups of content to only monitor rather then all of it.

Hi!
Have you tried taking a full content report, and just exclude the parts of the site you don't need. Perhaps that would be easier than adding all the sections/pages you do need.
Or, if possible, add a special keyword ("resort guide"/"holiday guide") to the page title, unless that messes up something else for you (SEO etc...). That way you could create a content report for all pages with added keyword in the page title.
Hope this helps,Anders

Unsolved Google Analytics (GA4) recommendations for SEO analysis?
Guides on Moz and elsewhere mostly refer to Google Analytics' Universal Analytics (UA). However, UA is being replaced with GA4, and the interface, options, and reporting are very different. Can you recommend a clear, thorough, and effective walkthrough of how to set up useful SEO reports in GA4? Is there a simple tool you recommend that will help connect historical data from UA to GA4 when GA4 is the only option available? If there's no simple tool, what values do you recommend retaining from UA for effective historical reporting? How would you use them? At minimum for reporting, I'd want to show month-to-month changes and year-to-year changes (in percentages and in real numbers) for the following: all site visits all organic visits organic visits as a percentage of all site visits organic visits that led to a specific goal completion organic visits that led to any goal completion Thanks in advance for your help!

When I click an outgoing link from Analytics - why are they all broken?
On one of my websites, if I visit the Behavior > Site Content section of Anayltics any link I try to open is broken. Google Analytics is appending the domain before every URL causing it to open in a popup but as a broken link. Example: Trying to click a link to a page on the website at this URL: http://www.thisisanexample.com/test.html But in the Analytics popup browser this is what it tries to load: www.thisisanexample.comhttp://www.thisisanexample.com/test.html So I can't preview any of the content within Google Analytics. I feel like this is a settings issue somewhere... Any ideas?

No Search Data in Google Search Console (Search Analytics)
Wondering if anyone has experienced 0 data in their Google Search Console (Search Analytics) and found possible solutions to retrieve data? We have a few clients who, prior to the update to Google Search Console, were getting data regularly in terms of the Search Queries report, but ever since the update to Google Search Console, they are no longer receiving data. As an FYI, both the www and non-www versions of the website are verified in Search Console and the XML Sitemaps and Robots.txt files are clean, tested and working fine. Any insights or experience of sites showing 0 data in Search Analytics? Any possible solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is Google analytics not working properly anymore?
Hi mozzers, We launched a website 2 months ago and when monitoring Organic data on GA we had an average of 23% bounce rate like a month ago but the last 2 weeks I noticed that bounce rate=0%. This is very weird especially that we haven't modified the existing pages and that multiple keywords show an average site duration of 0 seconds. Any thoughts about this discrepancy? Do you think that there is an issue with the GATC implemented? Thanks

Sub-category considered duplicate content?
Hello, My craw diagnostics from the PRO account is telling me that the following two links have duplicate content and duplicate title tag: http://www.newandupcoming.com/new-blu-ray-releases (New Blu-ray Releases) http://www.newandupcoming.com/new-blu-ray-releases/action-adventure (New Action & Adventure Releases | Blu-ray) I am really new to the SEO world so I am stuck trying to figure out the best solution for this issue. My question is how should I fix this issue. I guess I can put canonical tag on all sub-categories but I was worried that search engines would not craw the sub-categories and index potentially valuable pages. Thanks for all the help.
