Need REGEX help

[Ideas-Money-Art]

Hi Mozzers,

I have multiple filters in one of the GA accounts I manage. I just created new pages that have URLs containing the keyword "spring" (location in texas) and wanted to filter out spring in the GA Spring profile(screenshot) .

My issue is it will filter all the URLs containing the kw spring and the website has multiple blog post containing the same kw (spring).

So what I need is a Regex formula so I can make sure I track only the Spring tx traffic and not  the blog posts.

Thanks for letting me know how can I do that!

Hi Kristina,

Would you rather do it a different way?

Thanks

Hi Kristina

I would love to share this infor but I can't do it here. Can I get you email or so so I can send you the detailed titles.

Thanks Kristina

Yep, I definitely think you could! Could you send me a list of the page titles you want to target, along with some page titles that you don't? The key is to be very specific in the pattern, so it doesn't include any pages that aren't in the Spring location pages.

Hi Kristina,

the difference between them is that one is about spring cleaning and the other I would like to capture traffic is in Spring texas.

Regarding the page title, they are pretty similar but not identical. Do you think I could use that option? If yes can I include 11 page titles (since I am trying to track all the Spring Texas location pages) ? If yes how would I add this type of filter?

Thanks!

(Whoops, sorry, didn't get the notification when you first posted this)

Hm, so, it doesn't look like you're using a subdirectory here. You're using "spring" in the page. If you were using a subdirectory, it would look like this:

example.com/spring/service1

example.com/spring/service2

And so on.

Since you're using a page, though, I think that you'll need to use a custom filter (the second radio button at the top). You can choose to "Include" anything: page title, campaign, referrer, etc.

These sound like they're very similar pages, so are you using a similar page title between them? Something that would be very specific to this type of pages?

Hey Kristina,

Do you need more information or it enough?

Thanks!

[Ideas-Money-Art]

Sure Kristina,

Don't want to include:

example.com/....-colorado-springs

example.com/..../spring-cleaning-....

example.com/.../for-spring

include:

example.com/spring

example.com/service1-spring

example.com/service2-spring

....

example.com/service11-spring

Thanks Kristina!

Hi Taysir,

Could you give us examples of the URLs you do and don't want to filter into this profile? You can make the domain www.mydomain.com so it remains anonymous.

Thanks!

Kristina

Hi mozzers,

the question is little tricky but if someone knows any useful resources, it would be great share those instead.

Thanks guys!
