I can't seem to view facebook analytics data for visitors of webpages containing a certain term in the URL.
In facebook analytics, I click:
1. Create new segment
2. Condition -> Web parameters
3. Current domain -> Contains
Here's a screenshot:
Current domain
Then I type the part of the URL but it doesn't load any users (0% of total users)
You can use referral URLs to better understand where your key sources of site traffic are coming from. The help documentation is here.
Apply this Segment: Condition -> "Web Parameters" Select Parameter -> "Referer URL", Condition -> "is any of" Value -> "[Part of the URL you want to segment by]"

I want to get share count for a particular url from Google Plus.I tried by passing activity id in Activities: get to get share count. It is working fine but I want the same by passing only url alone.
In Facebook I passed only the Url as input in query url with input url and i got share counts for an url.Is there any ways available in Google Plus to get the share count by passing only url.

Welcome to the world of Google APIs. The method in question
Activites.get
GET https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/activities/activityId
Takes a single parameter
activityId string The ID of the activity to get.
This is how this method works you must pass an activityId to it you can not pass a url. I can suggest running an Activies.list first in order to find the activity you seek.
You're best option is to use the Search API. Use the URL as the search term and page through all of the results until no more are found. You then have a number for how many times the URL has been shared publicly on Google+.
Our client has implemented google maps on which user can select particular location from the map which can be added by the user and perform the next action of it. How should i test the dynamic value appearing from the google maps for a particular search criteria ..
for example here is the scenario
you search a location--> get the desired result go to google map--> click on the add button of that location and proceed futhur.
How should i design my testplan/scripts for the same.
I cannot go for correlation also because the value of data is not define in the previous sample using regular expression.I want to change the data dynamically in the same sampler.
Thanks :) :) :)
I would like to find the conversion rates for one of my goals. However, I just want to see the results based on pages with "profile/" in the URL. I've tried using the following filter separately in the Analytics API add-on for Google sheets: ga:pagePath=#profile/ or ga:pagePath=~profile
The filter works, but I don't get any conversion hits. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Josh
Unless your goal actually is the page with the path of /profile you should use a segment rather than a filter. The difference is that a segment will give you the visits that include (exclude etc. depending on the conditions for you segment) visitors via the profile page, whereas a filter will only include pageviews to the exact /profile page.
So you are looking for a segment definition like
sessions::condition::ga:pagePath==/profile
This will limit the data to sessions that have at some point visited the profile page (but will also show what happenend before and after).
A more convinient way to get your segment definition is to define the segment in the GA interface, then head over to the query explorer and select your newly created segment via the segments dropdown. You can copy it from there (either by id or you can copy the segment definition if you click the checkbox below the dropdown).
One of my developers is building a Facebook tab application for a promotion we're running. During this promotion, some users will be given trophy awards. One of the pages in the tab application will list the trophies and their winners and we would like to have Like / Comment / Share links underneath them, like with URL shares:
Now it would be relatively easy to hand-roll this functionality for items that have a distinct URL (and so can be nodes in the OpenGraph) and that's what I think we'll have to do for the blog-like functionality, I think. (For clarity's sake, none of the current Social Plugins meets the right needs.) But I can't see how to do so for these trophies, which don't have a distinct URL.
I am right in thinking that "things that don't have a unique URL" can't be OpenGraph nodes, right?
Correct. Every node in the Open Graph has its own distinct URL.
The querystring is considered part of the URL: you could use it to make the URL unique but render the same page.
I what to record all my website searches with google analytics but the problem is my search links look like this
**www.mywebsite.com/search/category/your+query+here**
From what i found out i must give GA the query parameter (mywebsite.com/search.php?q=your+query+here) but i have none (and don't want any).
Is there a way to rewrite the URL with a google analytics filter? If yes how.
Yes, you can create a custom filter that rewrites URL /search/<category>/<query> to ?q=<query>&c=<category>.
Go to Analytics Settings › Filter Manager, and click Add Filter. Choose Custom Filter in the Filter Type drop-down list, select Search and Replace radio button, and then set two Request URI fields with the corresponding values. For further details, see ’How do I create a filter?’ page in Google Analytics Help Center.
Keep in mind! Since past visitor data cannot be reprocessed, always keep a ’raw’ profile that you do not apply filters against. For further details, see chapter ’Best Practices for Filters & Profiles’ in presentation ’Filters in Google Analytics’.
Site Search is processed BEFORE Filters are applied.
I went through a week of testing to realize this. Yes, the Filter logic is correct, but as of Nov 1, 2009 this will not work with Site Search.
We accomplished this by appeding the ?search= parameter to the page URI in the GA script. Then we strip search params in the Profile Settings and we get the pure URI's in the content section as well as the Searches tracked in Site Search.
I know this is old, but to expand on the prev accepted answer, use a 'virtual url' in the _trackPageview call, so for www.mywebsite.com/search/category/your+query+here have
gat._trackPageview( "/search/content/your+query+here?query=your+query+here&cat=category" )
This means that URLs won't be changed, so everything else works (as noted in the previous answer) - if you really want to you could remove the search params, but unless you're running into a URL limit I'd probably prefer to keep them present so they can be seen in the content reports.
