How can we view traffic from specific Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Reddit accounts in Google Analytics?

Dear Moz Community,
This is a Google Analytics question.
Using Google Analytics, we're trying to identify trends of visitors on a website from specific social media accounts, i.e:
Ideally, we would like to be able to see the success rate for specific posts on these social media accounts, and how users engaged on the website after arriving from clicking a link on one of these accounts.
Is this drill-down feature currently possible in Google Analytics?
Many thanks for helping!

Hi Justin,
Off the top of my head, there are three ways you can approach this. Ron covered one of them-- a combination of creating funnels within Google Analytics and filtering by traffic source is one way of doing this.
Another way is using Google Analytics Attribution Modelling. Here's a Google page explaining Attribution Modelling.
The third way is using a paid service like KissMetrics (no affiliation).
Hope that helps.

Justin,
I was able to put together a screen grab for you. The arrow points to exactly where you need to go.

Yes it is. drill down to the traffic sources section. They track this as referred traffic.

E-commerce data import Google Analytics
Hi there, Since a few weeks we have started a cooperation with a big online wholesale company which now sells our products. I want to import simple E-commerce data: amount of transactions and revenue. More detailed data such as amount of products, name of products, etc. is not necessary in the first place. Now I discovered the 'data import' functionality in Google Analytics but I can't find any suitable option for E-commerce data import. The data from the wholesale company is gathered in a nice export in a separate system, so there should be a way ti import this data into Analytics. Could anybody help me with this? Any advice is welcome! Thanks in advance.

Potential Security Issues Installing Google Analytics GTM
Greetings MOZ Community!! My SEO firm plans has requested that Google Analytics GTM be installed on my website to better track goals and events. My developer will be responsible for installing the GTM script on my website and the SEO firm will actually configure GTM to track goals. Is anyone aware of GTM causing server errors/issues when installed? My developer claims that running GTM would create additional vulnerability to hacking. Is anyone aware of potential security risks from running Google Tag Manager? Once Google Tag Manager is installed, will it make the site more difficult for my developer to administer? Will there be increased risk of the code breaking? Overall, is GTM a big improvement over the existing version of Google Analytics? Is it worth the effort to install? My SEO firm is very much in favor of this upgrade. I would like to move forward provided there is no major downside. I look forward to feedback. Thanks, Alan

Google Analytics Organic Keyword (Not Provided) Alternative Hacks?
I'm sure everyone is sick of the (Not Provided) keywords because I know I am, and Google reckons that you should only see 10% or less (I'm currently around 13% and growing). I am seeking alternatives or hacks that will help display the keywords? If you have a hack to actually display the keywords, please share it your ideas and thoughts? I recently implemented a hack that will show the landing page of the keywords which is better than nothing. But as an eCommerce site, I have about 10% of my transactions which not provided, knowing the keywords would really help. Would love to hear your thoughts?

Hi there, If you had 2 Google Analytics Accounts one to the main site and another to the blog, could this affect the page position in Google?
