How can we view traffic from specific Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Reddit accounts in Google Analytics?

Dear Moz Community,
This is a Google Analytics question.
Using Google Analytics, we're trying to identify trends of visitors on a website from specific social media accounts, i.e:
Ideally, we would like to be able to see the success rate for specific posts on these social media accounts, and how users engaged on the website after arriving from clicking a link on one of these accounts.
Is this drill-down feature currently possible in Google Analytics?
Many thanks for helping!

Hi Justin,
Off the top of my head, there are three ways you can approach this. Ron covered one of them-- a combination of creating funnels within Google Analytics and filtering by traffic source is one way of doing this.
Another way is using Google Analytics Attribution Modelling. Here's a Google page explaining Attribution Modelling.
The third way is using a paid service like KissMetrics (no affiliation).
Hope that helps.

Justin,
I was able to put together a screen grab for you. The arrow points to exactly where you need to go.

Yes it is. drill down to the traffic sources section. They track this as referred traffic.

Google Analytics Not Properly Attributing Goals
My GA has been working fine for years and is now suddenly attributing 100% of my goals/conversions to a "referral" source. In this case "crm.zoho.com". (see attached url) Our contact form is a zoho CRM form. When prospect fills it out online, it dumps them to a thank-you page and the conversion is counted. That all works just fine, but it is not attributing the conversion to Organic or PPC or Direct as it was a month or so ago. I'm not sure if this may be the cause, but I was cleaning up GA about a month ago, deleting some filters I didn't think I needed any more. Thank you for your help. 9CRUx

How can we stop Google analytics pulling in data from another site?
We have a few accounts under one Google login. They all have separate Google analytics codes but one of the sites is somehow pulling in some data from another site but the other site has not got the same analytics code on it. Not sure how this is happening and what we can do about this, is it a bug in the Google Analytics system? Any help would be appreciated.

Analytics, Traffic and Rankings. Something is wrong, can you answer it? ;-)
So I've been monitoring analytics to see where our clients are ranking for terms that have brought visitors to the site over the last month to find that the website isnt ranking in the top 100 for that keyword. What are your thoughts on this? Why do you think this could happen? One of the keywords has brough over 700 visitors in the last month yet is not in the top 100 for this term. I've also looked Google Webmaster Tools and have found that the exact same term hasn't had 700 impressions let alone 700 click throughs! Weird! Cheers, Sean
