222.mydomain.com... I'm stumped....
-
Hi,
I'm stumped by this one and am hoping I can get some advice/guidance. I've seen this pop up in my stats where the www.mydomain.com/page is appearing as 222.mydomain.com/page.
I have no clue what's going on...
This google return displays the same page 2 ways (see first image).
And when I click on the 222. link I get a prompt (see 2nd image).
Any idea what's going on?
Thanks!
Peter

Ah, I'm happy to report a resolution to the issue... so it turns out that it came down to the fact that the dns wildcard setting was turned on. Disabling it resolved the mystery.
Thanks for your help!

Ryan,
I just noted the IP # as well and pinged my hosting company to see if something odd occurred on their end.
I'll check the htacess file next.
Thanks for the terrific advice. I really appreciate your help!

Well, let me put on my detective hat. Here is what we know:
-
the page exists. I can navigate to 222.admissionsquest.com.
-
the page has the same IP address as your www. page, so the are hosted on the same web server.
-
the pages appear to be identical. I didn't do a 100% analysis here, but the pages appear to be the same, and they both have exactly 356 links on them.
The next step is checking your htaccess file and looking for any reference to this site. I would also such doing a search on your web server for "222".

Ryan, thanks for the tip. I checked and couldn't find a "222" folder in the root directory. Any other ideas?

Check your web server. It looks like you have a "222" folder located in your root directory. That would cause exactly this behavior. This would be the most likely cause.

AMP Session Stitching - How to deal with Google's Client ID AMP Policy
Hello, I recently attended SMX East and the concept of 'session stitching' for AMP was brought up (https://www.stonetemple.com/amp-tech-guide/). I reached out to my development team and they told me they could do it, but that we would need to agree to the new TOS changes and making users aware of then... https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7486055 Has anyone here done something like this? And if so how did you deal with the Google's Client ID AMP policy? Thank you all! -Margarita

Tool to check page size for multiple url's at once
In Google Analytics under Site Speed > Page Timings, you can see all pages and their loading time compared to the average. This is very handy to check which pages maybe need some optimization. I would also like to check the size for these pages in a similar way. There are multiple tools out there like GTmetix and Pingdom that give specific information and performance insights. The problem is that they are limited to check one url at a time. Does someone know about a tool to check the page size of multiple url’s at once (and if possible to easily export to Excel)? That way I can check which pages are big in size and research/optimize them. Thanks in advance

What's the problem with this code for Google Analytics
Hello, I'm using this code in my thank you page to track ecommerce sales in GA.

Any ideas of what could be the issue looking at this code? Maybe there could be other code could be causing the problem? Thanks a lot.

No data available for example.com in WMT. What to do?
Hi, Our problem is simple: we have statistics data for www.example.com but some data is missing for example.com (eg."links to your site", "structured data, "html improvements") . However, "search queries", "index status" and some other data is available for example.com. The problem is that we have over 5000 subdomains and we see no information about them.(especially links pointing to them). We followed every advice given by Google but doesn't seem to work: -Adding www.example.com and example.com in WMT -Setting www.example.com as the preffered domain -Using DNS verification to verify our site What do we have to do? Thank you, Axello

GA E-Commerce can't tell the real order source?
I put the e-commerce tracking code on the transaction platform (Regnow) finishing page, but all the orders displayed in GA can't tell the real order source. Instead, most of orders are from direct(none), and referrals from my site. So this is obviously wrong. I need the accurate order source such as google organic or google ppc, then I can find which keyword brings me orders. After some searches, I guess the reason is cookie domain. My GA is set as single domain tracking. And I didn't put any cookie domain code on the Regnow's transaction finishing page. The codes I put on the page are: So, suppose my site is "www.example.com". How to make sure I can track the real order source on the Regnow's transaction finishing page? Should I set my GA to track multi top-level domains, and put _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', '']); code on the tracking page? How to set the domain name, "none" or "example.com"?? Thanks in advance.
