Is there a way to find out who the admin of a Google Analytics account is?
-
We have a client who has been searching high and low to gain access to the GA account that is tied to their website, but previous agencies keep stating they don't have access. Is there a way to find out who the admins are on a GA account with the tracking number so we can reach out to that person and ask them to admin the client?

I found that this is the most up to date support information provided by Google when looking to regain access to an analytics account... https://support.google.com/analytics/troubleshooter/7264014?hl=en#ts=7271146

Hi,
I don't know whether your issue resolved or not by following either of above suggestion. This time I am sharing a Googler's post on exact issue. Please have a look.

Have you tried searching the account number to see what other websites (if any) are using that account? If you client's UA number does not end in a -1 then there is a good chance whomever made the site used the same account for all of the work they did, including their own site.

Try to contact somebody at Google - best way to access them is via Adwords; if you still have access to the Adwords account you can try the contact us under the help function. A good how to can be found here: http://www.brettasnyder.com/blog/reclaim-google-analytics-account-access/ (not sure if all the steps are still possible).
Alternative is try to call Google Adwords directly - phone numbers are here https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/1385067?hl=en-GB&authuser=0 or probably even better - if you know somebody at Google - try to get some help from him.
Hope this helps,
Dirk

Hi,
I don't think there is a way to find out who the admin is since Google is not providing an option for that at the moment. However, if you have an Account Rep for Adwords or any Google products, you can contact that person and your rep should be able to direct you to the right person. If not, you can always reach out to analytics-support@google.com and they should be able to help you contact the admin since they're not able to provide you with the email due to privacy issues.
Hope this helps.

Regular Expressions in Google Analytics
Hi All I've been struggling to create a regular expression for a Google Analytics goal step that would match the following: ^/specifictextstring/anytextstring/anytextstring/
Reporting & Analytics | | Cabbagefeet
^/specifictextstring/anytextstring/ However I don't want it to match any URLs that end with: /anytextstring**_**phonecall or /phonecall, for example: /specifictextstring/anytextstring/anytextstring/anytextstring**phonecall
/specifictextstring/anytextstring/anytextstring**phonecall
/specifictextstring/anytextstring/anytextstring/phonecall
/specifictextstring/anytextstring/phonecall Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for all contributions.0 -

Google Analytics Goals are not recording
Hello! I've set up Goals within Google Analytics and they aren't registering. I'm wondering if someone can review what I've set up to see if I've entered something wrong. I'm trying to track enrollments. Here's the site info: Enroll URL: http://www.careplusdentalplans.com/individuals/enroll-careplus/ Upon completion, the user goes to a Thank You page and our CMS generates a trailing URL parameter. For example: http://www.careplusdentalplans.com/index.php/individuals/enroll-careplus-thank-you/#123456789 My Goal info in GA: Goal URL: /individuals/enroll-careplus-thank-you/
Reporting & Analytics | | SmileMoreSEO
Match Type: Head Match (to disregard trailing URL parameter)
Goal Funnel: Step 1: /individuals/enroll-careplus/ I'm curious if the problem lies in either: The URL: Notice how the URL adds /index.php/ on the thank you page. In that case, should I enter the full URL in the Goal instead of the truncated URL? The Funnel: Is it necessary to show the initial Enroll page or if I'll see that in the Flow Visualization regardless? Thanks in advance for helping me out. Erik0 -

Google Analytics Organic Keyword (Not Provided) Alternative Hacks?
I'm sure everyone is sick of the (Not Provided) keywords because I know I am, and Google reckons that you should only see 10% or less (I'm currently around 13% and growing). I am seeking alternatives or hacks that will help display the keywords? If you have a hack to actually display the keywords, please share it your ideas and thoughts? I recently implemented a hack that will show the landing page of the keywords which is better than nothing. But as an eCommerce site, I have about 10% of my transactions which not provided, knowing the keywords would really help. Would love to hear your thoughts?

Any updates regarding 'not provided' organic keyword referrals in Google Analytics?
I know that the encrypted searches done by people logged into their Google accounts is causing the error, is there any workaround or any update from Google as to IF they will give us our keyword data back? I'm currently losing data on about 20% of my daily searches . . .
