          Hi,

          I am trying to see which of my Google organic keywords triggered my goals?

          In GA I click > Conversion > Goals > Overview > Source Medium (This then says where my goals came from but when I click Google / Organic it just brings me to the overview page of my organic traffic).

          Is it possible to see which organic keywords trigger goals?

                When looking at conversions I usually look at my Conversions > Multi-Channel Funnels > Top Conversion Paths report.  Here, if you select a Primary dimension of "Source/Medium", a Secondary dimension of "Keyword Path", and set an advanced filter for Source/Medium containing "organic", you should see all the conversion paths that involve an organic keyword.

                  I forgot to mention, that you'll need to click on goal set afterwards to see what words are triggering goals.

                    Hi,

                    You may also want to try clicking on Traffic sources on the left instead.

                    Traffic Sources > Sources > All Traffic > google/organic

                    Then you'll see an option for a secondary dimension where you can enable by 'keyword'. Hope this helps!

                      Do you have goals set up already?  If so, go to your organic traffic section, and right above the graph on the left you can select which goal set.  This will change the settings for the lists below the graph, and allow you to see the conversion rates based on keywords.

                      However, that won't work unless you have your goals set up.

                        Google Analytics reporting traffic for 404 pages

                        Hi guys, Unique issue with google analytics reporting for one of our sites. GA is reporting sessions for 404 pages (landing pages, organic traffic) e.g. for this page: http://www.milkandlove.com.au/breastfeeding-dresses/index.php the page is currently a 404 page but GA (see screenshot) is reporting organic traffic (to the landing page). Does anyone know any reasons why this is happening? Cheers. http://www.milkandlove.com.au/breastfeeding-dresses/index.php GK0zDzj.jpg

                        Why are plus signs (+) suddenly showing up in Google Analytics organic search keywords reports?

                        Since June 13, 2013, the number of organic search queries containing a plus sign (+) has gone up over 1,000% compared to the previous period on my site in Google Analytics. These plus signs appear to be taking the place of spaces in these search queries (i.e. "word1+word2+word3"). This appears to be almost (or completely) Google organic traffic, not other search engines. Since I highly doubt searcher behavior would change so suddenly, I'm trying to figure out why Google is replacing spaces with plus signs. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

                        How to identify rising keywords in analytics?

                        Hi Guys I just spotted in the Google Analytics > Traffic Sources > Search Engine Optimisation > Queries section a keyword that on the 27th Feb went from generating 35 impressions per day to 2000 impressions per day. This was down to people searching for a newly launched product. Does anyone know how I can identify any increases like this easily?  I only came across this by accident, and I am 1 month behind the times.  It would have been ideal to pick this up closer to the time so I could capitalise and write some great content on the topic. Thanks Paul

                        Totally Remove "localhost" entries from Google Analytics

                        Hello All, In Google Analytics I see a bunch of traffic coming from "localhost:4444 / referral". I had tried once before to create a filter to exclude this traffic source, but obviously I did it wrong since it's still showing up. Here is the filter I have currently: Filter Name: Exclude localhost
                        Filter Type: Custom filter > Exclude
                        Filter Field: Referral
                        Filter Pattern:  .localhost:4444.
                        Case Sensitive: No Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong and give me a push in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

                        Localhost:4444 Showing Up in Google Analytics

                        Hello All, Lately in my Google Analytics account I have noticed a referral source labelled: localhost:4444 The number of visits is really high from this source, but I have no idea (no clue!) what it actually means. Can anyone shed some light on what this is about? Should I be creating some sort of filter to screen out this as a referral source (assuming it is not legitimate)? Many thanks in advance. Cheers!

                        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!

                        Google Analytics: how many visits from country Google domains?

                        Hello, I manage a site with visitors from many different countries. With Google Analytics, it is normal to see the number of visitors from each search engine. However, I would like to identify the number of visitors from each Google-search contry domain. How many visitors from Google.com? How many from Google.co.uk. And from Google.co.zm? And so on. Anybody knows if this is possible and if yes, how can it be done? Thank you in advance, Dario
