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?

I found that this is the most up to date support information provided by Google when looking to regain access to an analytics account... https://support.google.com/analytics/troubleshooter/7264014?hl=en#ts=7271146

Hi,
I don't know whether your issue resolved or not by following either of above suggestion. This time I am sharing a Googler's post on exact issue. Please have a look.

Have you tried searching the account number to see what other websites (if any) are using that account? If you client's UA number does not end in a -1 then there is a good chance whomever made the site used the same account for all of the work they did, including their own site.

Try to contact somebody at Google - best way to access them is via Adwords; if you still have access to the Adwords account you can try the contact us under the help function. A good how to can be found here: http://www.brettasnyder.com/blog/reclaim-google-analytics-account-access/ (not sure if all the steps are still possible).
Alternative is try to call Google Adwords directly - phone numbers are here https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/1385067?hl=en-GB&authuser=0 or probably even better - if you know somebody at Google - try to get some help from him.
Hope this helps,
Dirk

Hi,
I don't think there is a way to find out who the admin is since Google is not providing an option for that at the moment. However, if you have an Account Rep for Adwords or any Google products, you can contact that person and your rep should be able to direct you to the right person. If not, you can always reach out to analytics-support@google.com and they should be able to help you contact the admin since they're not able to provide you with the email due to privacy issues.
Hope this helps.

Tracking time spent on a section of a website in Google Analytics
Hi, I've been asked by a client to track time spent or number of pages visited on a specific section of their website using Google Analytics but can't see how to do this. For example, they have a "golf" section within their site and want to measure how many people either visit 5 page or more within the golf section or spend at least 6 minutes browsing the various golf section pages. Can anyone advise how if this can be done, and if so, how I go about it. Thanks

Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools Setup for Agencies
Hi, As agencies, what are people finding to be the best practices for allowing multiple members of the agency's team to access client WMT and GA data? Have a generic "analytics@myagency.com" account that's used for the shares, that anyone in the agency can use as needed (limited, of course, not admin). Have the individual person at the company use their company email for the share for each particular client? employee@agency.com. Yet what happens when we need someone else to check the GA or WMT data? Any advice is much appreciated.

How can we view traffic from specific Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Reddit accounts in Google Analytics?
Dear Moz Community, This is a Google Analytics question. Using Google Analytics, we're trying to identify trends of visitors on a website from specific social media accounts, i.e: twitter.com/account-x facebook.com/account-x youtube.com/account-x reddit.com/r/account-x Ideally, we would like to be able to see the success rate for specific posts on these social media accounts, and how users engaged on the website after arriving from clicking a link on one of these accounts. Is this drill-down feature currently possible in Google Analytics? Many thanks for helping!

Google Analytics data - Canonical problems?
Hi everyone, We're trying to determine why Google Analytics is showing multiple versions of the same page as having "landing page traffic". For instance, these 2 pages are both shown as landing pages in GA: www.oursite.com/product_page
Reporting & Analytics | | darkgreenguy
www.oursite.com/product_page/ This occurs many times in Google analytics. Also, there are instances such as these: www.oursite.com/index.php/custom_product_url www.oursite.com/custom_product_url I can't find anything in Google Webmaster tools that would indicate a problem. However, this GA data is making me think there are duplicate content issues on the site... Thanks in advance for any help...0
