Google analytics

I updates all my google analytics accounts after the update and now i went to each campaign and it appears there is a problem and now if I reset it i loose history.
Is this a glitch or a problem

Sorry about the confusion. You actually won't lose your historical data. That messaging it just telling that your cached graphs will be reset, so it will take us a hour or so to pull back the historical information from GA. Just go through all of the accounts you are having issues with and reset the connection. If that doesn't work, make sure you are logged in to you Google account that has the GA accounts on them and disconnect the accounts with the scary red button, then reconnect them.
Sorry about the inconvenience.

It might be just a temporarily glitch from GA, due to the interface change.
I've seen another problem after their latest interface change, some links do not work from Mozilla Firefox.
Do you have more details about the problem? Do you see data there?

My advice is just to use the current code from your analytics account, if you add a new analytics tracking code you will not have the legacy data.
Tips here how to get the code from your current account - http://support.google.com/googleanalytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=55603
Make sure that you use the current code across all pages after the update too.
I have seen a problem recently where a client had one analytic code on one section of the site and one analytic code on another section from two various accounts, so a lot of the data was not been tracked.

Do I need a separate Google Analytics ID for a subdomain on my website?
Hello Everyone, I would like to know if I need a separate Google Analytics ID for a subdomain on my website? I have a sub-domain within my website, and the software for the site on the subdomain is asking for a Google Analytics ID. Should I be using the same Google Analytics ID as the main domain or should I be creating a new Google Analytics profile or ID? Thanks. Ryan

Google analytics : exclude traffic to a subdomain
Hi, I have a website with a client access on a subdomain. I want to exclude the traffic to that subdomain because it messes up my conversion goal for the main site. Per example, 2 out of 10 visitors are existing clients that want to access to my SaaS product. The 8 other are potential clients. I want to exclude the 2 clients from my stats so I could have the good conversion percentage for my free trial for the other 8 potential clients. Thanks in advance for your help!

Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools Setup for Agencies
Hi, As agencies, what are people finding to be the best practices for allowing multiple members of the agency's team to access client WMT and GA data? Have a generic "analytics@myagency.com" account that's used for the shares, that anyone in the agency can use as needed (limited, of course, not admin). Have the individual person at the company use their company email for the share for each particular client? employee@agency.com. Yet what happens when we need someone else to check the GA or WMT data? Any advice is much appreciated.

Why are plus signs (+) suddenly showing up in Google Analytics organic search keywords reports?
Since June 13, 2013, the number of organic search queries containing a plus sign (+) has gone up over 1,000% compared to the previous period on my site in Google Analytics. These plus signs appear to be taking the place of spaces in these search queries (i.e. "word1+word2+word3"). This appears to be almost (or completely) Google organic traffic, not other search engines. Since I highly doubt searcher behavior would change so suddenly, I'm trying to figure out why Google is replacing spaces with plus signs. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

Keep multiple Google Analytic / Webmaster accounts seperate?
Hi, I have a paranoid suspicion that putting all my websites on one Webmaster / Analytic account will mean any links between my sites won't carry any weight, and Google might consider similar content much more readily if 2 of my sites are in the same market. So I have about 4 different accounts with my main sites split across them. Am I being over paranoid? Do any of you have any problem with all your sites being on the same account?

Google Analytics bug?
Hi, I'm getting hits to this page, it's screwing up my Google Analytics stats. I know it's related with Google Website Optimizer, cuz it correlates with the tests I ran at the same dates. I'm just wondering if you've seen this before and what I should do to clean my stats? And is this affecting my SEO? Because it's still registering hits to these pages but I already stopped the tests a while go. Should I disallow this in my robots.txt file? Thanks! ga_bug3.jpg
