      Hi,

      We are trying to consolidate the amount of landing pages on our site, is there any way to find landing pages with a particular URL substring which have had 0 traffic?

      The minimum which appears in google analytics is 1 visit.

        This is a really nice solution! Thanks for sharing. It's super quick as well, so a GA export and a few VLOOKUPs/pivots later and you're sorted - nice one!

              He is trying to consolidate or find the total number of landing pages that do not have any traffic at all. So, screaming frog seo spider can be used to crawl the entire website (with the substring in the URLs) and substitute the URLs that have driven at least 1 visitor. He is not trying to get a hold of his historic or old analytics data. The question is pretty straight forward unless I missed something.

                Yes, but how does that help him get the old data he needs? Crawlers shouldn't know your traffic unless you install the code they give you or verify some other way.  Find it to be a crawler causing the problem unlikely unless I misunderstood the problem/question.   I sure hope they have a Linux host (most are) and can just check the apache logs while Google Analytics takes a few days to update.

                  What webhost are you using?  Most keep analytics software enabled by default or at least lets you turn it on.  (While you wait for Google.)  Analytics are a key part to SEO so I use awstats (free), and webalizer.  With most hosts if not enabled its as easy as clicking a button.

                  Depending on your host, you might be able to get the raw log info, but most hosts don't have this option unless you paid for a fancy account which allows root shell access, but maybe not it differs from site to site.

                  Google Analytics will only show 1 visit if you are the only visitor even if you refresh the page or come pack.  It saves your IP address and hardware profile most likely is the method they use. Make sure you change Google Analytics to display as far back as possible.

                    Hi, you can use a crawler like Screaming Frog SEO Spider to come up with total number of pages with some unique string in the URLs, substitute the URLs that have traffic from these and the rest will be ones with no traffic.

                    You will have to use the paid version of Screaming Frog SEO Spider if you want to crawl more than 500 pages and here is the section of the user guide that tells you how to do a regex crawl:

                    Best regards,

                      Google analytics suddenly stopped tracking all my landing pages

                      Hey guys. I love the new update of GA. Looks so clean. So, of course, I was excited to see how my landing pages were doing. I went to behavior, all content, all pages. And I noticed it's only showing me 19 pages out of the 93 I have indexed. And none of the top ones at all! Can't find them anywhere in GA! Anyone seen this before? Thank you so much

                      Why would page views per visitor suddenly increase?

                      My website traffic is growing by about 1% a week. It has a fairly stable page views/visitor of about 1.69. There's normally very little variability in this As we sell an industrial product. Today page views jumped by 50% and so did page views/visitor but visitor numbers stayed the same. I dont have a useful hypothesis to explain this. Analytics shows me that the traffic source, country of origin and pages viewed are pretty much the same as normal. There's been no substantive change to the site (today we changed the text in a widget to link to a new page - and no one visited it). It doesn't look like 1 person has gone through the whole site as that would skew the distribution of page views by country So why would user behavour suddenly change? I'll look at it for the rest of the week but in 7 years of looking after this website I haven't seen anything like this before.

                      Is there a way to find out who the admin of a Google Analytics account is?

                      We have a client who has been searching high and low to gain access to the GA account that is tied to their website, but previous agencies keep stating they don't have access. Is there a way to find out who the admins are on a GA account with the tracking number so we can reach out to that person and ask them to admin the client?

                      Adwords start Organic traffic SIGNIFICANTLY drops

                      I hope someone can give me some insight here, or at least point me in the right direction. As of September 1 we are running Adwords. We are seeing an alarming drop in our organic traffic since then. It's almost like Adwords is cannibalizing organic. August/September Paid 116/847 Organic 648/178 We've looked at why the Organic could have dropped (penalties, site function issues, etc.) and have found nothing unusual. Can someone give me a reason why this might be happening, Why such a dramatic decrease just as adwords is started. Thanks!

                      Finding an Explanation for a Massive Spike in Organic Search Traffic

                      Hi, I watch analytics on a website (for a friend's business) that is reasonably stagnant, which just experienced a massive spike in search traffic for no explainable reason. The organic search engine traffic had always been steady, but about two months ago, organic search traffic started rising slowly. I checked OSE & a few other tools, but couldn't find any massive source of gained links or other explanations - just the usual occasional blog post about the company. I got in touch with my friend to see if maybe they'd gone with a competitor or something else, but he also had no idea (and even if he wasn't being honest with me, we still should've been able to spot links or social metrics or something!) Then, yesterday, their organic search traffic just tripled. The crazy thing is, it's not from one keyword: Every search term, and (not provided) essentially went up 200-400%. And I have no freaking idea why. No large gain of links. No website editing. The only possible explanation I thought up is maybe one of their competitors got knocked out, but I doubt that would cause such a stratospheric rise. So figured I'd turn to y'all. Any ideas on what might be causing such wonderful results? Anyone have any good tips on figuring out why a website could all of a sudden be doing incredibly? Analytics chart is below for the curious, and thanks in advance for any ideas / tips! nQHrscw.png

                      Will having a subdomain cause referral traffic from the domain name?

                      Hi! One of our clients has a site with the store on a subdomain: store.example.com.  When we've set up goals for order confirmation pages, we often see most of the sources attributed to example.com.  Is this because of the subdomain issue? How would we correct it so that we would see as the referring source for the goal the site that sent to the root domain originally, and not the site that sent to the subdomain? Thanks!
