Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi folks,

I've just completed a straightforward olddomain -> newdomain migration. All the redirects were done on 7th Feb. I submitted the change of domain request on 7th Feb. All seemed fine - as can be seen in the attached.

It's now 19th March and our pals at GSC are still saying that the domain migration is ongoing. I've never had this take so long before; 2-3 days tops. Their results are tanking as I can't geo target and more features in GSC are out of action as it's 'locked' due to this migration (I just get a screen as per the attached).

Thoughts? Shall I risk withdrawing the request and starting anew? The old "turn it off and on again"?

Thanks!

Hi Martijn,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I am using Google Analytics yes. I was hoping to be able to do this without making any changes to the site (which will take time as I am not in control of that side of things) but I will certainly offer you solutions as well as the Event Tracking solution to the developer so at least they have a choice then.

I do like what you have come up with though, and it may be the way to go as the client is used to looking at goals (rather than events).

All the best, Rich

Thanks, am just looking at CrazyEgg now and the price seems very reasonable.

May give it a whirl.

Hello All,

I am looking to find out how well a page converts in Analytics. A simple request you would thing, but no!

First off let me list what I don't want to know:

• I don't want to know the conversion rate of a product
• I don't want to know the conversion rate based on the landing page

What I want to know is how many people click to add the product to their basket on a particular page (which I understand is not strictly the conversion rate, but whatever).

So the ways I have tried unsuccessfully are:

• The Analytics overlay (the in page Analytics thing) - this doesn't work because the "Add to Basket" button is not a link, it is an input.
• The Navigation Summary - this doesn't work because most of the time the /shopping_cart.php URL doesn't come up in the short list, and if you search for the URL in the search box beneath the percentages get all skewed.

The most obvious solution would be Event tracking but I can't get that implemented in the short term.

So does anyone have the answer to this most curious of conundrums?

Thanking you in advance,

Rich

We all get them and most of them are rubbish, very few of them have taken the effort to find out who they are emailing. So making it personal and doing some research first is essential but what about the wording of the email... can you share examples you like & that have had more success for you than others?
