Hi John,
If you want to see the visualisation for mobile traffic only you'll have to use the "Goal Flow" report - not the Funnel report (my mistake - wasn't aware that the funnel report doesn't allow segments. The goal flow is the newer and more advanced report on funnel reporting. For a full comparison between the two, check this article https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2976313?hl=en).
If you want to use the funnel reporting you should use the 2nd method I described - create a new view with filter "Mobile" - which will allow you to see the normal funnel report, although not for previous data. A step-by-step on how to set up this view can be found here: http://blog.crazyegg.com/2013/02/26/google-analytics-profile-filters/
rgds,

Yes, you just use your normal funnel visualization and turn on your mobile only segment.

Is it possible to create separate funnel visualization for mobile?

Hi
you can select the segments at the top of the page in your analytics report. By default it list 100% of sessions - next to it 'add segment'. When you add a segment you can add mobile / tablet. If you only want to see mobile you close the 'all sessions segment and only keep the mobile segment.
I only have mobile internet access so I can't send you a screenshot

Hi Dirk,
Thanks for reply but difficult to understand your reply -
1) "take your existing funnel / checkout report and select segment mobile and/or tablet traffic" - i.e. when i click Conversion > Goals > Funnel Visualization.....at this steps i cant see any way to select segment?
- "Alternative would be to create a new view and to add a custom filter mobile and tablet"....if possible can i have screen shot?
If you check my attachment i want funnel of mobile and if possible than ipad also.
In Google Analytic - Conversion > Goals > Funnel Visualization it shows the funnel of whole website either desktop, tablet or mobile but i want only for mobile and if possible then ipad also.

Hi
the easiest solution would be to take your existing funnel / checkout report and select segment mobile and/or tablet traffic which gives you the figures you're looking for.
Alternative would be to create a new view and to add a custom filter mobile and tablet (these are pre-defined) or create a filter based on screen size.
Advantage of the second method is that it doesn't involve sampling (segments are sampled if visits are high or if you look at historical figures). The disadvantage is that reporting only starts tracking the moment you create the view (segment also work on historical data.
Hope this helps
Dirk

Seeing very few pages analysed re: Mobile usability, in Google Seach Console - why?
Hi Mozzers, Under Mobile Usability, in Google Search Console, I am seeing very few website pages getting analysed - 10 out of 40 static pages, on the website in question. Is this to be expected or does this indicated an indexing problem on mobile?

Bounce Rate: what is it EXACTLY?
Hi everyone: we all know the term 'Bounce Rate'. I'd like to think i have a good idea of what BR is....but some things are not really clear to me. Time to call in the experts. Question #1: What EXACTLY will stop Google from considering the visit as a bounce? As discussed not too long ago in this topic https://moz.com/community/q/will-this-fix-my-bounce-rate

Ruben wrote: "..what it basically means is that someone clicks on your SERP, and then clicks back to google? But, it doesn't matter if they spent 10 minutes on your page or 10 seconds" Jessica Conflitti wrote a reply in which she basically said that it might be a good idea to have visitors click to a different page OR a PDF-file. That's where my confusion has been for some time now: Clicking on a PDF-document, an image in the page that opens with Fancybox, a link to a different domain? Or can it only be a different URL on the same domain? The way i would expect it to be:
Pages contain the GA-tracking code. So am i right by thinking that Google needs to have the same GA-tracking code to be loaded twice? Because only at that point will they have two datapoints. And only then will they be able to tell that the visitor hasn't left. By clicking a PDF-document - as described by Jessica - you wouldn't load the GA-code twice. So I would expect that clicking a PDF does not make a difference for the BR. Don't get me wrong: i like the article but it is this detail that throws me off. IF Google can read or capture these clicks, what other elements can be used to reduce bounce rate? Clicking on a YouTube-video embedded in the page? I'm asking this because i want to get this right. Question #2: how much weight does BR have on Time on Page, Engagement, etc? We know Google is taking a lot of things into consideration when calculating the value of a URL or domain. So how much should we care for BR if we know the Time on Page is good and a large percentage of people are frequently returning? How about your experiences or knowledge on that? Really looking forward to your replies and help on clearing this topic for me. And perhaps some other readers as well! Bas0 -
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

Help Blocking Crawlers. Huge Spike in "Direct Visits" with 96% Bounce Rate & Low Pages/Visit.
Hello, I'm hoping one of you search geniuses can help me. We have a successful client who started seeing a HUGE spike in direct visits as reported by Google Analytics. This traffic now represents approximately 70% of all website traffic. These "direct visits" have a bounce rate of 96%+ and only 1-2 pages/visit. This is skewing our analytics in a big way and rendering them pretty much useless. I suspect this is some sort of crawler activity but we have no access to the server log files to verify this or identify the culprit. The client's site is on a GoDaddy Managed WordPress hosting account. The way I see it, there are a couple of possibilities.
Reporting & Analytics | | EricFish
1.) Our client's competitors are scraping the site on a regular basis to stay on top of site modifications, keyword emphasis, etc. It seems like whenever we make meaningful changes to the site, one of their competitors does a knock-off a few days later. Hmmm. 2.) Our client's competitors have this crawler hitting the site thousands of times a day to raise bounce rates and decrease the average time on site, which could like have an negative impact on SEO. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe Google is going to reward sites with 90% bounce rates, 1-2 pages/visit and an 18 second average time on site. The bottom line is that we need to identify these bogus "direct visits" and find a way to block them. I've seen several WordPress plugins that claim to help with this but I certainly don't want to block valid crawlers, especially Google, from accessing the site. If someone out there could please weigh in on this and help us resolve the issue, I'd really appreciate it. Heck, I'll even name my third-born after you. Thanks for your help. Eric0 -
How Google measure website bounce rate ?
Bounce rate is a SEO signal, but how Google measures it ? There is any explanation about this ? Does Google uses Analytics ? Maybe time between 2 clics in search results ? Thanks

Google Analytics Goal Funnel Visualization Issue
I've setup a goal funnel but am having an issue when I look at the funnel visualization. It doesn't appear to be recognizing the 1st step of the funnel that I've defined in the goal edit page. The "Property Listing page view" is located at /listings/xxx where xxx is the number of the property. Within the funnel, I've added /listings/*, but when I go to see the funnel visualization, I see 0 counts for this step (even though it clearly shows on the entrance page to the left "/listings/622, etc". I've attached a .pdf with a few images to help make this clearer. Any thoughts? CRD-Funnel.pdf
