Hi John
There's a couple of ways you can do this...
-
Login into Google Analytics
-
Select the profile you want to check
-
Select the date range
-
In your left sidebar menu, goto "Acquisition" - click it
-
Go down to All Traffic - click it
-
Go down to Channels - click it
-
Above your graph, you'll see a box that says "All Sessions" above your graph - click it
-
Learn more about Segments here
-
A box will appear with a list called Segment Name
-
Scroll down to, or search in the box, "Mobile Traffic"
-
Click "Apply"
-
Now, where it says "All Sessions", there is a carrot down button in the upper right hand corner
-
Click it and select "Remove"
-
You should only have "Mobile Traffic" as your segment
-
From here you can see your Mobile organic performance, as well as other channels, including Direct
-
From there, you can also, in your left sidebar menu, goto "Acquisition" - click it
-
Go down to Campaigns - click it
-
Go down to Organic Keywords - click it
You can also do this...
-
In your left sidebar menu, goto "Audience" - click it
-
Goto Mobile - click it
-
Goto Overview - click it
-
Click "Advanced" above "Conversions"
-
In the box that appears, type "mobile" - click apply
-
Then, above "Device Category" click "Secondary Dimension"
-
Type in "Medium" - click it
-
Then, go to "Edit" above "Conversions" in your table
-
Click "+Add a dimension or metric"
-
Type in "Medium"
-
In the box that appears next to it, type "organic"
-
Click "Apply"
-
From here you can see your Mobile organic performance
-
If you do this off of the Segment you set up previously, you shouldn't have to set up those filters
Hopefully this helps! I would check out the Google Analytics Academy - particularly Digtial Analytics Fundamentals & Google Analytics Platform Principles. Both are great resources and help immensely with understanding how to use Analytics to find the data you need.

Hi John,
First click on Audience=>> Mobile ==> Overview on left hand side in GA. After Choose 'Direct traffic' segment from segment
list. You will get direct traffic data. For Search engine data select 'search traffic' from segment list.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hey guys, any advice on why my 'search analytics' in Google Webmaster tools is blank with no data?
I have added all the website versions into Google web master tools and I have no crawl errors. When I click on Search traffic these pages are blank - search analytics, & Mobile usability. And When I fetch as Google the status is constantly saying me 'temporarily unreachable' - any help would be greatly appreciated.

Direct traffic coming to URLs with /rss_feedIP#
I'm doing a site audit for an organization that has a bunch of really messy old Drupal sites. In looking at their traffic, I see that a majority of it is coming to landing pages that look like this: http://clientsdomain.com/rss_feed173.8.208.97 plus other IP addresses. The bounce rate is 100% and time on site is less than a second. It looks like something that an RSS feed tool might use, but I've never seen something like it before. It creates its own landing page, hits the site, then appears to bounce. This is making their Analytics data look a whole lot worse than the site is actually doing, since the bounce rate is 100% on all that fake traffic. I have some experience with Drupal, but I've never seen anything like this in Drupal or any other CMS. Has anyone out there ever experienced something like this, where direct traffic comes to an rss feed landing page and bounces immediately?

Universal Analytics: Why does Google Organic appear as Direct traffic?
Hi there, When I enter the site via Google Search and follow myself via Real-Time Analytics I appear an organic visitor (which is good). When I browse and visit the site I still am an organic visitor. However, as soon as I fill in the contact form (gravity forms) and land on the "thank you page" I appear as a direct visitor with Google as the source. Since I have the thank you page set-up as a goal, Analytics incorrectly attributes these conversions to the direct medium instead of the organic medium. The tracking code has been installed on all the pages and all conversions are being recorded. What is going on?

Strange Spike in Direct / None traffic
Over the past week or so, my client's Australian personal training website has experienced a dramatic spike in Google Analytics sessions (see attached screenshot). All the visits are coming from various states in the US and via the "Direct / None" source. All the visits are less than 1 second in duration so I'm assuming it's coming from some sort of automated bots. I'm worried for a couple of reasons: A) Could somebody be deliberately spamming the site to adversely affect our rankings? B) How do I get rid of this traffic from our analytics reports? 7kwsJnB
