Comparing user behaviour in GA
-
Hi
Does anyone know, can advise a process, for how to compare user behaviour (time on page, bounce rate etc) for a major site section/category page that's changed its url since a new site upgrade (so effectively 2 different pages i presume) with the old page version (say comparing U.B between the two pages and between June this year vrs June last year) in Analytics /
Cheers

I've attached a screenshot from Google Analytics. First, click on Customization in the top menu. Here, you can create all kinds of special types of reports so that you don't need to go through and compile a bunch of different data every single time you do a report for a boss or client.
In the "add Dimension" field, for example, you can add a set of individual pages. So, whatever value you're adding up, it will report a value for just those individual pages combined. Based on what you stated, I think this would solve your problem of compiling data from the old and new locations of a page together. If you play around with Custom Reports, you'll see a bunch of cool things.
I hope this helps!

My domain as a sufix on GA reports
Hi, There's a friend of mine who asked me with some weird results on her sites' Google Analytics reports (http://esther-roche.es). I've searched the GA code and its GA account config and I've no clue about where this esther-roche.es is to remove it. Any idea? Thanks in advance, BzgPcAo.jpg

Will GA Tell Me How Often Audio Samples Are Listened To?
We have 1000s of audio book samples for visitors to listen to as part of their buying decision. Will Google Analytics tell me how often and what specific audio files have been listened to?

Switching Google Analytics from Urchin to GA
I want to finally make the switch from Urchin to GA in Analytics, but the Google support page is no longer working (I realize I'm late to this so they likely took it down/moved it to where I can't find it). I've been searching on Google but can't find a straightforward guide to changing that won't disrupt my data. Anyone have a link to a working guide, or can you provide some guidance?

GA stopped tracking traffic, suddenly, why¿? :-/
2 days ago GA stopped receiving data. It only stopped for one account of all my projects. At this moment there are 5 persons navigating the site and these days there where numerous visitors as they contacted the support team thru the site. GA says that it's receiving the code, hw, I checked it twice. The tracking code is located below the footer, in the body. It was there for few years.... I also checked if there is some js conflict, negative. Is there something that could make the tracking to stop? Does anybody experienced similar problems¿? Should I be worried...¿? (and with SEOmoz server with issues not sure when will see new results.......) EDIT: In Web Master Tools I see results for indexing, with yesterday date, so I assume that the site crawling is ok and must be GA issue.

An initial set up question - linking to GA
when viewing campaign it indicates there is a problem linking to our GA account but the details entered are correct. Any ideas what the problem might be - nothing on the campaign settings page gives me a clue. There is a highlighted box saying disconnect from GA but nothing else. The only thing i can think of is that the GA account was set up by a third party and we have access to view it - could it be a permissions problem?

Sessions in GA - need clarifications
Hello, Regarding recent change in how Google now defines a session... If a user visits a site from a different traffic source (say Google and Bing ) within 30 minutes, would that show 2 visits now ? Was earlier it considered 1 visit ? Also, sessions ends "at the end of the day" It can be different for different users ? How does Google defines end of the day ? for USA time ? Thanks
