GA Regex Help Needed!
-
Hi mozzers,
I am just discovering the RegEx world so I need your help. I would like to create an advanced segment to track 40 specific pages that have very different URIs from each other.
Can you tell me how using RegEx?
The dimension would be "landing pages" then not sure...
Thanks

Thank you Meme!!

you got many wildcards bur this one is quite straightforwardif you write:
/(.*)ward/ --> you're matching /ward/ and any thing which contains that word at the end like /forward/
if you write /(.+)ward/--> you're forcing that should be something before so you're takin /forward/ but not /ward/

Thanks Mememax
Can you tell me more about the wild card (.*)?
-
this site has a good syntax table which summarizes all the parameters you will need. http://www.regular-expressions.info/reference.html
mainly you want to use the OR parameter like(this|this2|this3|thisN) also wild card like (.*) may be helpful.

Help me exclude our dynamic IP addresses from GA
Hi There, I can't believe we are the first SEO Web Development company with the issue of dynamic IP addresses, for technical reasons our ISP keeps changing our IP addresses to different random IP addresses (no patterns, ranges, or reasoning to the specific changes) and we obviously need to exclude our own visits to google analytics - but I can't seem to find any simple way to do this in Google Analytics - can you help me find a simple solution for this? I did find two chrome extensions(I'll give you the links to those at the end) that I will look into if you cant help me find a simpler solution 🙂 Thanks so much!! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/block-yourself-from-analy/fadgflmigmogfionelcpalhohefbnehm?hl=en https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/developer-cookie/lknhpplgahpbindnnocglcjonpahfikn

174.99.90.148 I set up these two custom filters and neither worked for the longer IP address. 2606:a000:4e2b:d500:61d9:9d4e:c539:ea86|174.99.90.148
2606:a000:4e2b:d500:61d9:9d4e:c539:ea86|174.99.90.148 Would you please help steer me in the right direction? Thanks as always MOZ friends!0 -

Google Search Console (new GWT) - Does a language specific sub folder need its own GSC profile

Funnel Problem in Google Analytics - Please help
Hello, I did set up a several funnel steps in my analytics account to get the funnel visualization report. But it's look fishy, something's clearly wrong that it shows only 10 visitors at the first step but actually more than 5k visitors has visited first goal page and followed through the another all steps. Everyday we are receiving 5k to 10k goal conversions but it not showing in the entire funnel steps through first step to last step. Please see the attached screenshot URL for funnel setup (Admin) and funnel visualization report comparing last two months traffic. Total goal conversions received 3,605 in last two months but in funnel chart (report) it showing only 2% conversions in last step. Anybody can tell me what is the problem with that or analytics not tracking properly?si65Y

GA E-Commerce can't tell the real order source?
I put the e-commerce tracking code on the transaction platform (Regnow) finishing page, but all the orders displayed in GA can't tell the real order source. Instead, most of orders are from direct(none), and referrals from my site. So this is obviously wrong. I need the accurate order source such as google organic or google ppc, then I can find which keyword brings me orders. After some searches, I guess the reason is cookie domain. My GA is set as single domain tracking. And I didn't put any cookie domain code on the Regnow's transaction finishing page. The codes I put on the page are: So, suppose my site is "www.example.com". How to make sure I can track the real order source on the Regnow's transaction finishing page? Should I set my GA to track multi top-level domains, and put _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', '']); code on the tracking page? How to set the domain name, "none" or "example.com"?? Thanks in advance.
