David, Cyle is right on. To expand, you can also set the remaining parameters to your sites Categories, Brands, Product-Type etc. for further segmentation.

One way is to attach the utm parameter on the end of your product URLs in your Google Shopping Feed. Use Google URL Builder to do this: http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=55578 , this will put the traffic that comes to your site via Google shopping into a campaign. This takes longer to set up, but it makes segmenting the traffic from Google Shopping way easier.
Good Luck

Re-classifying a Traffic Source in Google Analytics
Hey All, I think it's inside of the Admin section of Google Analytics, right now I have a traffic source from the domain of indeed.ca that is being classified as Organic traffic when it should be classified as referring traffic, how can I tell Google Analytics that all traffic from this source should be classified as referral traffic and not organic traffic? Furthermore, after I make this change, will Google Analytics re-classify my past data so I can do a proper analysis? I can't remember how to do this and any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Setting up Google Analytics for Subsites
I currently have one main .com site and am planning on launching geo-location subsites .co.uk, .com.au, .ru, etc... Traffic will flow between both sites and some of the content on the subsites will be duplicate and therefore include a canonical tag to the main site. I want to set up GA to capture who is going to the subsites and vice versa and correctly capture crossover traffic. Any advice on implementing advanced analytics directly (or links to sources that will direct me the right direction for this project)

For past 2 weeks, several of our sites have strange increase in direct traffic in Google Analytics. we also have another tracking code, and in this account we don't have any big changes, so this is very strange what is happening.
