Help setting up FILTERS for External Payment pages?
-
Hi all,
I own a webshop and believe my Google Analytics is not showing true data.
At the moment when a user pays for their basket, they are redirected to an external secure payment page from my PSP, then after they have paid they are redirected back to my website.
How is this visitor being counted? As the PSP-URL is a different site I assume this would be treated as an exit?
Can I setup FILTERS to INCLUDE this URL so GA doesn't think its an external page or is there a better way?
Thanks

Just found the answer with ADD REFERRAL EXCLUSION here:
1. Sign into your Analytics account.
2. Click Admin in the menu bar at the top of any page.
3. In the ACCOUNT column, use the drop-down to select the Analytics account that contains the property you want to work with.
4. In the PROPERTY column, use the drop-down to select a property.
5. Click Tracking Info.
6. Click Referral Exclusion List.
7. To add a domain, click +ADD REFERRAL EXCLUSION.
8. Enter the Domain name. (you don't need to add the subdomains separately).
9. Click Create to save.

Filter Remote Workers Traffic
For the most part in the past our company has worked on location. So filtering internal traffic was as simple as filtering out our company IPs as well as a few remote workers IPS. Now a large number of employees are working from home due to Covid-19. I am seeing an uptick in traffic that is clearly employee-related. I am hoping some of you who work with large remote teams may have some suggestions on how to best filter out traffic from remote working employees. I found a few articles from a couple of years ago where people were using a cookie but not sure we can get that implemented in time as our Dev team is backed up. Any help is much appreciated.

Search and Replace filter on Google Analytics?
Hello! On our GA account for one of our clients, we'd like to add a search and replace filter to the Views section of the account. The URL is www.askergoworks.com (it redirects to askergoworks.com), and Google has flagged us to have redundant hostnames. This is why we'd like to add the filter. Would the regular expression be askergoworks.com|www.askergoworks.com ? Any help would be great - I'm not a regex expert, so I really don't how to go about this. Thanks!

Webmaster Tools, why does it show 486 pages submitted to web, and only 40 indexed?
I am confused on what a client account shows in WMTs, client account is http://multiview.com. They have a graph showing 486 pages submitted to web, but only 40 are indexed. Also, they recently re-launched, i.e in April 2014, and the new site has about 40 pages indexed.... so I am guessing that the 486 number relates to all the pages that are showing errors in retrieving...i.e. 28 soft 404 errors, 10 access denied errors, 808 not found errors. Does this make sense to explain why there is such a gap between 486 and 40?

Using Filters On Google Analytics
Hi Guys, I am In need of some technical help with regards to Google analytics. One of my clients has a site providing HR Software on SaaS basis. The users login via the site for the various HR Tools. Obviously this is skewing the analytics data and showing 10,000+ extra visitors that actually don't exist. Now I understand i can add filters and exclude certain pages for instance the login page, however, some users will visit the home page then click login. How can I exclude them just to show new visitors to the site rather than users that are just trying to login. Hope this makes sense Neil

Please Give This Page a Good Ass Kicking
This page on my site has a high bounce rate (around 90%) despite being right on point for the search queries that lead visitors to it (i.e. keyword data shows visitors are searching for this information exactly). Also, Google keeps giving the page good placement and it receives a good bit of traffic. Anyone have thoughts as to why the bounce rate is so high? Feel free to offer candid criticism.
