Analytics

In 2019 user tracking on webpages will be more complicated. The this year in the eu you need an real opt-in before tracking a user. I tested the usercount on my page with analytics (real opt-in) and piwik (hidden tracking) and the result showed me only 40% to 50 % of user accepted the opt-in.

Now I'm looking for a possibility to track unique users, user frequence and visited pages (maybe referer pages also) inside drupal 8 so I can check the success of my online marketing activities. But all the modules I found broke my site.

Hello,

Because there is noting about Piwik on this analytics group, I just want to tell you a little about it.

I have juste test the Piwik analytics tool (https://piwik.org/) and the corresponding drupal module (www.drupal.org/project/piwik). It is very easy to install and to use.

Hello,

The organization that I work for currently uses Drupal, Moodle and Kaltura for its online e-school. I understand that each of these platforms can connect to Google Analytics to bring in data of business value, but what I am wondering is if it would be possible to have all this data come into one area where ALL the data coming from Drupal, Moodle & Kaltura could be analyzed from one space? Is this possible? I am not extremely tech-savvy, so a simple answer using layman's terms would be appreciated.

Hello everyone,

The site, which contains from ~100k to ~1M nodes needs web analytics strategy. It may seem trivial but will describe the site and requirements I am talking about:
-3 different languages, nodes are localized: the same content but 3 different paths. 3 XML sitemap are used, so it is 3x more content for search engines
-Different content authors have to see the summary of their authored content: how much every node was visited total (on all 3 languages combined!!!), daily, weekly, monthly, some other minor stats. Ideally all the data is kept until node is published.

Hi All,

I was hoping someone might be able to offer up some advice.

I currently have several drupal sites, each with their own google analytics account. Recently, I've also created an "ALL" google analytics account that I'm dumping All my sites data into (in additional to each site's specific google account).

I have this working, using the custom javascript "after" area of the google analytics setup, as follows:

_gaq.push(
['All._setAccount','UA-XXXXXXX-1'],
['All._trackPageview']
);

Hi,

We get quite some traffic from drupal.org to our website. Some time back we noticed that traffic from d.o or groups.d.o reduced to zero. Initially we thought there might be no traffic coming. But then we figured even on purposely clicking our link from d.o, Google Analytics does not show the referral as drupal.org, instead classifies it as 'organic'

This led us to conclude that we must be getting traffic but its not getting classified under referral from drupal.org. The traffic died from June 1 last year.

How is this possible? And what is the solution?

Hello,

Do any of you had 'Yearly' next to a forum post on your sitemap? Almost all of my links in XML Sitemap is like that.

I have the latest version of XML Sitemap. Since it's a very important issue, I figured I share it with you guys maybe someone dealt with this issue before.

What's the best method for adding Webtrends tags to Drupal pages? I'm on Drupal 7 and although there is a Webtrends module, it is still in development and without even so much as a beta candidate so I'd prefer not to use it. I'm sure there are alternatives for tagging pages. Suggestions? This is the code I'm being asked to insert:

Question - what does the community recommend for a quality service that can track user behavior? Specifically, a comprehensive option that understands Drupal and the layout and can cleanly track as much information as possible. This would include frequency of login, pages viewed, time on the site, node creation, comment creation, etc. I am assuming this is not going to be free, but I'd also like it to not cost into the thousands of dollars per month.

Hi,

I have released a new module called Google Analytics Ecommerce, allowing associate tracking ecommerce with the creation and updating of nodes, so you can turn any website into an ecommerce store in google analytics. It is in active development right now, but any test and feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks!

On the SEO project team for the drupal.org redesign we recently discussed doing more with analytics measurement of SEO goals and objectives.

After analysing the Drupal.org Google Analytics data we found no goals are specified currently. Neither does there seem to be any governance or
methodology.

To optimize drupal.org we need to take analytics serious. Therefore we have created a proposal of integrating online analytics into Drupal.org and
into the Drupal community. Not just for SEO; we need to improve user experience and gain insights.

Hi,

Have a site with:
-CacheRouter with db caching
-APC on the server, but not used with CacheRouter
-Boost with default-agressive settings, crowler enabled
-JS minify + gzip
-CSS gzip
-block cache module enabled
-"Normal" drupal cache
-Paged are gzipped by drupal
-GA code is in footer

-Google Analytics module was used with "cache locally" and without - but no change.

-All the internal Google Analytics indicators is showing that everything is ok, some stats is available.

-JS minify+gzip is enabled, but I clearly see the .js file, which is accesible.

Hi,
A client of mine is running a marketing campaign that will display ads on someone elses site. The owner of this site asked for a tracking URL. Since we use Google Analytics, I simply used the Google Campagin builder tool to make this URL:
http://mydomain.com/mypage?utm_source=nick&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaig...

I tested the URL and now have data showing up in Google Analytics. However, the campaign report shows 0 visits. (Traffic Sources > Campaigns)

I just wanted to draw your attention to a proposal for a Drupal Analytics project for Summer of Code 2009: http://groups.drupal.org/node/20452

We are gathering ideas, so come share your thoughts!

Just posted a video about using the Google Analytics module. Anyone can provide me with feedback about what I missed or didn't cover.

So, I am about to implement google analytics optimizer on a relatively large site, has anyone have any experience doing this? Also, did anyone ever got the search function in GA working for drupal search?

... and I do not have any hair to spare!

We run a Drupal site that is getting about 60,000 page views a day. We use Google Analytics and AWStats to analyze our traffic, and the Google Analytics page views are coming in about 13% lower than AWStats. This is after we have aggressively filtered AWStats to make sure we're only counting actual page views.

Have been implemented Drupal actions as goals? If so, how? I am thinking of user registration, comment posting, profile editing, etc.

Hello,

We are looking for speakers for the upcoming DrupalCon in Boston. Since you are subscribed to a business and marketing related group, you might be especially interested in the "Business and Marketing" track (see http://boston2008.drupalcon.org/business-and-marketing-track-descriptions ).

This track covers the following topics:

• The Drupal ecosystem
• Businesses learning to use Drupal
• Case studies
• Showcases: NPO, Education, News, Media, Government, Healthcare

Hi there,

just to let you know about the track host module for drupal 4.7 I've just released.

The basic idea is to know the sequence and time-for-reading of users navigation on large content drupal sites (in my case http://roma.cercachetrovi.it)

Project home page: http://drupal.org/project/track_host

Feedbak is very welcome!
