Google Analytics: how many visits from country Google domains?
-
Hello, I manage a site with visitors from many different countries.
With Google Analytics, it is normal to see the number of visitors from each search engine.
However, I would like to identify the number of visitors from each Google-search contry domain.
How many visitors from Google.com?
How many from Google.co.uk.
And from Google.co.zm?
And so on.
Anybody knows if this is possible and if yes, how can it be done?
Thank you in advance, Dario

Ok, I understand. Thank you for your help!

I am not 100% sure about this, but this is the normal way of consideration. Normally, Google also looks at which data center the user has been querying and based on that it decided the location. It tries its best to give you the location accurately, but sometimes, the mechanism fails, therefore the not set comes in.

Hello, thank you very much, I have checked the report you suggest.
So, if for example I see 2050 visits from Google | Australia, this means that the 2050 visits entered from a search in Google.co.au.
On the other hand, if a visitor from Australia was did a search using Google.com, his visit will be counted in: Google | (Not set)
Is this correct?
Thank you,
Dario

There are some instances when Google is unable to decipher the country/tld for a visitor. Eg. Opening Google.com in Australia. Thats why the Google (not set)

Go to your GA account. Then, click on traffic sources>search engines.
This will give you a report containing Google, Bing and other search engines. If you have visitors from multiple countries, you would be seeing Google mentioned multiple times in your report.
If you see carefully, you will the table header (just above the listing and this would normally say:
Source (a dropdown), None (another dropdown) followed by visits, page/visits, time on site, bounce rates etc etc.
click on the none dropdown and select country/territory from the menu that appears. You should be able to see different country visits from Google.
Hope that helps.

Whatstuffwherebot user agent messing up Google Analytics
Starting yesterday, Aug 26, 2020, I noticed a new bot crawling our site with user agent whatstuffwherebot. Google Analytics is counting these hits as human traffic, completely throwing off my numbers - yesterday, Analytics reported nearly triple my typical number of visitors. As of now, Search Console only shows data through Aug 25 so I don't know if Search Console is also affected. Is anybody else seeing something similar? Does anybody know what the whatstuffwherebot bot is? I don't get any results when I search on Google or Bing. For what it's worth, the traffic is coming from Columbus, OH, running over Amazon AWS via 278 different IP addresses so far. Also, WordFence (my WordPress security plugin) correctly identifies these hits as bot traffic.

Strange landing page in Google Analytics
Hello MOZ Community, The website in question is https://x-y.com/ When i looked at the landing pages report in GA , x-y.com is appended at the end of every URL like this. https://x-y.com/x-y.com When i open the above URL in GA interface, it shows page not found. This is obvious as there is no such URL.

Google Analytics SEO Queries Not Showing
Hi All, This might be a silly question, but for all the properties I monitor in Google Analytics, I'm now showing no data for SEO Queries under Acquisition for the past 6 days. Normally I would expect a few day delay in queries, but nothing for 6 days is somewhat peculiar especially as it was functioning fine prior to November 12th. Does anyone have insight into what might be going on? Thanks! URaNMa3

Google Analytics Real Time Not Working! :(
Hello Everyone, Today, the real time feature in my google analytics stopped working. I am able to see that traffic is visiting my site, but not in real time. The real time count is usually at 0. But, there are some instances where real time will come back online, but there will be only 1 unique visitor. At any given time, our website usually has 20 visitors or so..Has anyone encountered this issue? Where should i start looking for fixes? What are the possible problems? Thanks!

Whats 'Other' in Google Analytics (in Acquisition)
When i look in GA under Channels (under Acquisition) 'other' is listed What is 'other' ? I have been told its other unidentified channels as they did not allow 3rd party cookies or surfers were in anonymous/private mode. Other is usually organic traffic that couldn't be identified for the aformentioned reasons. This data is encrypted and available but it violates Google guidelines as they are not allowed to pass personal info//data to third parties so it is automatically filtered. But they are not 'Not Provided' (since that still shows under organic) but is usually/mainly some form of organic visits. Hence Seo can take credit for much of that traffic, is this correct ? Many Thanks

How to remove unwanted dynamic parameters from a URL in Google Analytics
Hi, Would really appreciate some help with this. I have been experimenting with RegEx to achieve this but as I’ve never used it before am currently failing miserably. We have conversion pages i need to set goals for that are formatted as below: https://www.domain.co.uk//Application_Form/(S(ewhbqp5cki0mppuzukunkqno))/enterCardDetails.aspx I need to remove the (s(xxx)) section from the URL as rather than one pages i currently have thousands of unique URL's. What’s catching me out is that as it’s not a URL parameter I can’t discount and as half way through can’t just do head matches etc to /entercarddetails Help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Why does Google Analytics think PPC traffic is organic?
I have a bastard of a problem... Google Analytics is incorrectly tracking PPC traffic as SEO which is screwing up all my reporting . I don't care for rankings, I care for actual SEO traffic and I can't be sure that what i am seeing is correct which is driving me nuts. Any ideas?
