Regex in Analytics for longtail content

[viventuraSEO]

I have spent quit some time now, trying to figure this out. I wannt to segment landingoage traffic to the longtail content. That's content in the 3rd or 4th subdirectorylevel. I would like to do that by saying google: "Just show me traffic that arrives on landingpages with 3 OR 4 slashes "/"

But I can't get a solution, can anybody help in the seoMOZ community?

A very handy guide here on regex specifically for this kind of thing, with a bit of tweaking you can also filter right down to number of words in the phrases too if you want to (handy if you are looking for more specific conversion phrases)

Ok, I have to admit, this answer is not my own. I "borrowed" ok, I stole the answer from Tom Critchlow. Your question was very intriguing so i took the time to research an answer for you.

Here is the regex string that will segment traffic according to the number of slashes in an url.

^/([^/]+/){3}[^/]*$

This specific regex segment will show urls with 5 slashes. You can play around with adding and subtracting slashes untill you find the perfect string for yourself. Here is a link to the article where Tom talks about this topic.
