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.

Funnel Problem in Google Analytics - Please help
Hello, I did set up a several funnel steps in my analytics account to get the funnel visualization report. But it's look fishy, something's clearly wrong that it shows only 10 visitors at the first step but actually more than 5k visitors has visited first goal page and followed through the another all steps. Everyday we are receiving 5k to 10k goal conversions but it not showing in the entire funnel steps through first step to last step. Please see the attached screenshot URL for funnel setup (Admin) and funnel visualization report comparing last two months traffic. Total goal conversions received 3,605 in last two months but in funnel chart (report) it showing only 2% conversions in last step. Anybody can tell me what is the problem with that or analytics not tracking properly?si65Y

How does switching to HTTPS effect Google Analytics?
We are looking at making our site HTTPS. We have been using the same Google Analytics account for years and I like having the historical data. All of our pages will be the same, we are just going to redirect from the http to https. Does anything need to be done with Google Analytics? What about other addons such as Optimizely, Crazy Egg, or Share this?

Google Analytics Organic Accuracy?
Hi, On a cool summers day, I was quenching my thirst for SEO Knowledge in the depths of Google analytics, When I stumbled upon a most troublesome sight. I was Browsing the data inside Acquisition->Keywords->Organic and comparing them to Acquisition->Search Engine Optimization->Landing Pages, to find the results quite questionable.. Since Keywords->Organic measure the visits from the organic results, and Search Engine Optimization->Landing Pages measures the clicks onto one of my landing pages from Google, I assumed they should be the same or very close, (besides Keywords->Organic having visits from other search engines) but they were not the same, as a matter of fact it was telling me that Keywords->Organic visits = 1,474, 27.19% of total(5,422) and Search Engine Optimization->Landing Pages, clicks = 1,548 154.80% of total (1000). Even worst the Search Engine Optimization -> Queries clicks = 1,123, 160.43% of total(700). I have been searching, and come up empty handed in the answer so does anyone know why Google is showing me different results and strange numbers that don't make sense? Any information is greatly appreciated?

Google Analytics traffic hijacking?
Ran into something interesting a week ago - the same Google Analytics code was installed on two different sites by accident. The account was reporting traffic from both domains. Haven't found a definitive answer on how to stop this yet if it were to be used maliciously?
