Tracking Social Interactions with GA and WordPress
-
Hi,
- One of the things I'm looking to do is to track clicks on my social follow buttons. I know I can try to add GA events for each button and go from there. But in order to simplify the process, I'm looking for a WP plugin that can help.
Currently I've only come across AddThis and Share This as viable options, though Add This has very mixed reviews, and Share This isn't updated for WP 3.6.1.
- For my social shares at the end of blog posts I'm wondering the same thing about tracking shares. I've used AddThis in the past with success in tracking shares, but I wanted to see what other are doing or if there's a newer technique.
The bottom line is that I want to try to see as much of the "social" as I can in GA.
Thank you in advance!!

Unsolved Can you accurately track lead source when using a cookie consent system?
With the introduction of cookie consent for third party analytics cookies, is it still possible to accurately track traffic source? Legally, you can't create a tracking cookie for platforms like Analytics until consent is given. So...the associated Javascript tags can't fire. Surely this means you can't collect any of the information on the user's original source... Can anyone shed any light on this conundrum....greatly appreciated.

When migrating to https should you unlink the verified http version from my GA account?
Hi We had a new site design at the end of April and at the same time changed to https. Over the last 6 months, according to our analytics account the traffic has dramatically dropped especially from mobile. We were at 3607 new visitors from mobile in April and now 32! in September. Technically (other than page speed and some meta issues that I'm aware of) there doesn't initially appear to be anything wrong. I have just been into search console and notice that the old http site still has the GA code on it, could it be that this is why the data is showing such a massive drop? Should we have taken that off when we migrated the site? The same analytics account is also on the new site. Thanks in advance Janine

Track image searches on google analytics
How can i track image searches on google analytics? To filter the refferers by image.google or /imgres does not work in new google analytics (and brings an impossibly small number on old GA). also, this would not cover local google image refferers, that don't come from image.google.com. anyone knows how to find image search sources? i haven't found anything helpful in google's documentation or forums. thanks!

IP address and GA
Our company is based in Noida, and in GA, i can see few visits from New Delhi. Both these cities are nearby. ( In India ) Our hosting is in US. When a visitor comes to site, does visit is based on IP address of the user's system ? Our company has taken hosting from Noida. Does that means that visits from New Delhi are Genuine and NOT from our company ? My apologies, if i am not clear...
