Google Analytics - April Search Report Data Gone For All Clients - Anyone Else Seeing This?

[dpeddle]

Hey everyone,

In the last hour I was doing some SEO referral reportingin Google Analytics and discovered that my April data was completely gone (flat lined to zero).  Specifically, if i select a date range for any point in april and select search from the advanced segments area I am seeing this issue.

This is happening for ALL of my active clients... anyone else seeing this?

I am seeing the same issue. This appears to be a bug with the search segment. I just added a question about this in the GA discussion forum. Hopefully we should be able to resolve this.

Ah.  Thanks Dan, now I got the same results.  This definitely appears to be a Google-based bug and is happening gloabally: http://www.analyticsevangelist.com/google-analytics/google-analytics-segmentation-data-missing-for-april-2011/

Well what the heck - I'm seeing exactly this as well. It seems to be limited only to the "Search" advanced segment for the month of April, just as you described. The data is still there, and viewing search traffic via "Traffic Sources" remains accurate - it's just the advanced segmentation that appears busted. This applies to my custom segments as well.

I'm still seeing April data so it could be a node in Google's cluster.  Do you have this problem if you access GA via Adwords (if that's an option for you)?  Or vice versa, accessing GA directly?  It shouldn't make any sort of difference, but you never know.

Other suggestions: you've turned on a segment that doesn't have any visits, you have contradictory segmentation highlighted that equals no visits, you have a non existent comparison running... anything along those lines.
