Why am i still seeing very recent organic kw traffic being reported in Analytics if G is now fully encrypted ?
Should it not all be 'Not Provided' now ?
When this fully roles out if not already wont it be impossible to distinguish between brand and non brand kw ?
Cheers

Hi Dan,
Yeah its pretty tough. You have probably seen the wbf covering this which mentions using adwords for brand search insights, also check out this article which has some interesting points on moving away from keyword/branding reports and going to a full all organic/landing page type reporting model.

Thanks Lynn !!
Blimey ! any thoughts how to explain that to a client (or post covering this) , that we will no longer be able to distinguish between brand & non branded organic traffic, let alone kw specific traffic

Hi Dan,
Google has said that they are going to encrypt as many searches as they can, but obviously not all are yet since I too am seeing some little bits of keyword data still. Some of that data comes from other search engines, and interestingly the bulk of the google data still in there seems to be coming from android browsers (if you check keywords by Browser/Os in analytics maybe you will see the same thing). There are still some non encrypted google searches coming from other browsers, but the bulk seem to be Android based. Anybody else noted this? As for branded vs non branded organic searches... yeah, its gonna be tough!

Ecommerce data in universal analytics
Does any have the same issue. We are tracking e-commerce data in GA universal. We are finding that sales are being recorded on the day of the sale and again a few days later. It does only seem to be 1 or 2 sales that do this not all. Does anyone have any suggestions? Much appreciated. David

Why would our client's site be receiving significant levels of organic traffic for a keyword they do not rank for?
We have a client that has received 100+ organic visits for the keyword 'airport transfers', yet the site does not rank in the top 100 search results for this keyword. We have checked that it is not untagged PPC traffic. Truly baffling. Can anybody help?

Referral Traffic vs. Campaign Traffic in Google Analytics
I have two sites: a blog and an ecommerce site. The blog funnels people to the ecommerce site. In Analytics I'm seeing declines in referral traffic from the blog to the ecommerce site. During the same time I'm seeing an increase in campaign traffic to the ecommerce site, with most campaign traffic coming from the blog. I believe the increase in campaign traffic is largely a result of simply having installed more tracking links. This leads me to believe that the declines I'm seeing in referral traffic is simply a result of the increase in campaign traffic. In other words, what was once counted and reported as being referral traffic is now being counted and reported as campaign traffic. So my question is this: In Google Analytics is campaign traffic ALSO reported as referral traffic, or is campaign traffic reported separately and not duplicated in referral traffic reports? I'll provide a concrete example to make this more clear in case it isn't: Say site X sends 1000 visits each month to site Y. Say 50 of those visits come from a single link on X. If that link is changed so that campaign Z data info added (via the Google URL Builder), would you expect to then see 950 referral visits each month from site X to site Y plus 50 campaign visits to site Y via new campaign Z, or would you continue to see 1000 referral visits plus the new 50 campaign visits? Many thanks in advance to anyone that can shed some light on this.

How do you or can you tweak the date range so when you select weekly it doesnt spit out the standard Mon to sunday report (or Whatever it is). Thanks is advance,

Comparing % Change, Google Analytics
Hey Mozzers, Is there a simple way to compare the "% Change" in traffic when comparing two separate time periods in a single Google Analytics report? When comparing data from two separate time periods, an exported CSV doesn't include the % Change (booo!), and there's no option to sort by % Change within the GA report, essentially forcing you to scroll through all the results to pinpoint the major movers and shakers. I'm not averse to using spreadsheets to sort this data, but I'm thinking that I'd likely need a macro to make this work, something like this. However, none of the macros on that page are working (possibly because they were designed for a previous version of Analytics). All suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
