Track image searches on google analytics

[zeepartner]

How can i track image searches on google analytics?

To filter the refferers by image.google or /imgres does not work in new google analytics (and brings an impossibly small number on old GA). also, this would not cover local google image refferers, that don't come from image.google.com.

anyone knows how to find image search sources? i haven't found anything helpful in google's documentation or forums. thanks!

Here is a Google Forum thread

Please read the Implementation of the hack to provide you with all image searchs

Here is the revised script to track all Google Image Search in aggregate://handle google images referrervar ref = document.referrer; if ((ref.search(/google.imgres/) != -1)) {   var regex = new RegExp(".google.([^/]+)(.)");   var match = regex.exec(ref);   _gaq.push(     ['_setReferrerOverride', 'http://images.google.' + match[1] + unescape(match[2])],     ['_addOrganic', 'images.google', 'q', true]   ); } Remember that this needs to be executed above the _trackPageview.If you want to track Google Image Search by country domain modify the addOrganic like this:['_addOrganic', 'images.google' + match[1], 'q', true]
