Google Analytics: Dashboard to show popular content per directory
-
Hello, I work for a furniture business and I would like to set up a dashboard in Google Analytics to show a table for each of the 10 sections to show the most popular content, ie.
/Sofas
/Sofas/black-leather-sofa | 987 PVs
/Sofas/brown-leather-sofa | 782 PVs
/Sofas/classic-material-sofa | 636 PVs
etc./Beds
/Beds/king-size-bed | 900 PVs
etcHow would I go about doing this?
Thank you

Hi there
In your dashboard, click "Add Widget". In this case, I think selecting a "table" widget would be best.
For the dimension, search for the "page" dimension. There's lots in there, but you just want to select "page" by itself in this case. For the two metrics, you can add "pageviews" and another one - maybe "avg time on page" or "% of new sessions". Whatever you think is most useful.
The most important step is setting up the filter. Click "add a filter" and then select "only show". In this case, you will want to only show "page" containing "/Sofas/", "/Beds/" etc. (minus the quotations of course).
You'll end up with something like this: http://i.imgur.com/0bPFfwL.png
Give the widget a title for reference, such as "Most popular Sofa Pages" and then click save.
You should end up with a report like: http://i.imgur.com/dFUHl0z.png
To rinse and repeat, all you need to do is go to the widget, click the edit icon, and then at the bottom of the popup will be a "clone widget" option. Do that, adjust the filter for each category you have, and you're done!
Hope this helps.

Google Analytics Landing Page Report Discrepancy
I have noticed that when I run a landing page report and use the advanced option so I can view only the landing pages that include a particular string in the URL, have noticed that I in the report, the graph at the top will say one thing, but the data below says something else. For example, the graph for one particular search shows 200 Impressions, but the info below says 700 impressions and 610 clicks. Anyone seen anything similar or have any ideas why? Thanks! Craig

Google Analytics should track users from iPhone App
Hi Mozzers, you say there are no dumb questions, here is one. We've build an iPhone App for our Website working-dog.eu. So users can read there new messages with ease when they are out of the office, read about breeds, ... do all the nice stuff they want. I don't think so, but is it possible to track these users with Google Analytics? When the come via App, the Analytics code will not run for them. But maybe it could start an AJAX request or something like this? But how should the code run, without a browser which can interprete JavaScript? So, in short: Is it possible to track users from iPhone App with Google Analytics? Kind regards Patrick
