In Real Time Page Views Showing Down But Users Not Affected what is happening actually?
-
Hi All,
For my ecoommerce site we constantly keep eye on real time analytic many time we see page views suddenly goes down for 1 min only then again started growing but visitors in "Right Now" section not affected.
Network team, developer team, DBA team, seo team no one able to find bug from there end. Neither google shows any website down, server error or 404 etc in search console.
So what is exactly happening when pageviews go down? Do really visitor affected If no then also why and if yes then also why?
Please help.
Thanks!

Hi Amu,
Page views can fluctuate. This is can be attributed to user psychology. Maybe if page views drop the user have found what they are looking for without digging deeper into your site. This is a good thing. The most important aspect of a website is user experience. However this can also be opposite, page views can drop if they find your site too complicated to use.
Other reasons,
Wrong target audience for ads or content, spam bots inflating views for particular pages but not digging through site. 404 errors, pages have access blocked and so on.
Thanks,

Google Analytics global page empty
Hello, I don't know what happened with my Google Analytics initial page. For around a week I have there all my websites, but they show no results on global page. If I enter on any property I can see everything as normal, just not on the initial page. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/JKFVIh4 For sure I changed anything that I shouldn't. Perhaps you know what's wrong? Thank you in advance.

Problem setting up new view in Analytics
Hi, I'm having problems finding where to set up a new view in Analytics. I have seen https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1009714?hl=en but get lost at point 3 (In the View column, click the menu, then click Create new view.) In the menu there is no option that I can see. If I go into the one view that is set up, I also can't see anything 'View Settings' that would allow me to copy the view and then modify it. Am I missing something? Thanks

I am begining to suspect that I have some sort of Google penalty but I cannot know for sure.
I believe I comply with all Google guidelines and I think the SEO is good.
Possibly the eBay affiliate links are the problem but they form a large part of the content and user experience.
The page gives a price guide for items in different conditions and has various other tools for the user. Any thought would be appreciated. Thanks for your time in advance. Alan0
