Why my events are showing in real-time, but not in stored data in Google Analytics?
-
Thanks in advance!
-
The events were showing in real-time report and I waited after a few days and no results are showing under "Top Events" section under "Behavior".
-
Stupid question probably, but you're looking in the right place in the interface?
-
You could install the Google Analytics debugger (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-analytics-debugger/jnkmfdileelhofjcijamephohjechhna). Check the Javascript console in Chrome for Analytics related error messages to be sure that the event tracking is properly setup (when triggering the event)
-
The events have been implemented since last month.
Regarding IP filters, yes, our internal/office traffic has been excluded since last month. We still retain the unfiltered view.
-
The updating of Google Analytics stored data can be anywhere from 18 to 24 hours behind the real-time data. Did you just implement the event tracking? If so you're going to need to wait a day or so for it to be displayed by the "regular" part of Google Analytics.
Hope that helps?
Paul
PS Don't forget, if you used IP filters to remove your own IP address from registering data in Google Analytics, you'll need to be looking at an unfiltered view in order to see your own test events.

Multi Step Form or Standard Form for Data Capture
We are redesigning our web site real estate (www.nyc-officespace-leader.com). A key component of the site is the property search form. Currently visitors completes 5 fields and properties that meet the criteria are displayed to the visitor. I have noticed that my leading competitors (www.42floors.com, www.squarefoot.com) use multi step forms that ask single questions of the visitors. In effect they are reducing complexity by asking a single question per form. However the visitor must complete additional forms. Before results are served, both competing sites require the visitor to release contact info. 42floors has a clever inducement for the visitor to release their info: "Their are 127 listings that haven't been posted yet, but are visible to members." Once the visitor releases info they get to view the listings. While this is somewhat coercive, I suspect it is effective in obtaining customer date. While I understand it may result in some visitors bouncing off the site, the form completions are extremely valuable. Currently we provide listings without requiring registration but obtain very little data about visitors. In New York City, there are so many commercial real estate sites that visitors have a tendency to bounce from one to another without leaving info or calling. Multi step forms would allow me to add questions that are highly pertinent. Like when do they need possession, how long a lease term. By being asked very specific, relevant questions I wonder if that would not in fact increase the likely hood of the visitor to release info Any advice?? I am attaching several of the forms in question. In the event that we proceed with a multi part form, their are certain services like Leadformly that integrate with Wordpress. I see the eliminate the need for a Capcha and have other advantages. Is it beneficial to use such a package? iQUNh 19ugT he23uak

How much time is enough to test?
I am not an adwords expert but this is is the strategy I am following: 1. I create an adgroup for each set of keywords that will target the same ad. 2, I set the bid high to appear first. 3. After 3 to 5 days I remove the ones with low CTR over the impressions, anything below 1%. For example: for this url: http://www.theprinterdepo.com/hp-laser-4250-printer-q5400a-r I created an AD, and initially I put 10 keywords, after one week I had wasted a lot of money, after 4 days I deleted 7 keywords, and after 8 days, I left only one keyword with a very good CTR of almost 3% and conversion rate of 4%. The question is: how much is enough time to test and remove keywords? is one day of data good enough? Should I make this test with the highest bid possible? Should I keep the high bid forever?? 11 dollars for one click seems pretty expensive for one printer of 200 dollars when converted. Does position 1 guarantee more conversions? Maybe as long as it appears on the first 5 or 6 then its enough so I can decrease bid?

Can using the Google Keywords tool and/or SEOmoz cause problems for my company's IP address?
I just started with a company a few weeks back, working on-site doing SEO work. I've been using SEOmoz as well as Google Adwords' Keywords tool. I just got a message from one of our reps saying that people at the office (and this is a huge office) have reported tons of CAPTCHAs being thrown up frequently. I told them I had been running searches with Google Keywords tool and SEOmoz, but would that really cause that much of a problem? Is there anything I can do in order to fix this, some keyword finders that won't get me in trouble, etc.?
