Web Analytics

Looking for best UK Web Analytics Recruiters

nobody@vox.com(Rob Myles) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:49:28 -0800

Hi All

I'm adding a section on Web Analytics recruiters to my marketing recruiter directory and would love to get the input of actual web analysts rather than recruiters.

Only have a few so far and yet to find any real specialists. Those that get suggested I'll try and add to the site

everyrecruiter.co.uk/marketing/web+analytics

All suggestion very gratefully recieved

Is Google in self destruct mode ?

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Wed, 21 May 2008 01:51:43 -0700

Why would Google accept / approve / sponsor Tor for the Google Summer of Code 2008 ?

Tor is an organisation that "helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy" ie by attempting to subvert all Web Analytics tools including Google Analytics and apparently Tor also breaks Google Search itself ! Surely Googles primary product ?

Google Analytics tracking javascript code

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 03:26:25 -0700

Google Analytics have released a NEW version of their tracking javascript code (ga.js) so create the following two javascript files:

googanala.js
var gaJsHost = ( ("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www." ) ;

document.write(
                unescape(
                        "%3C" +
                        "script type='text/javascript' " + "src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' " +
                        "%3E" +

                        "%3C" +
                        "/script" +
                        "%3E"
                )
        );

googanalb.js
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-999999-9");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();

and include the following two lines in your footer

script type="text/javascript" src="googanala.js" /script
script type="text/javascript" src="googanalb.js" /script

with angle brackets added back in !

Google Analytics v StatCounter on VOX

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Thu, 13 Sep 2007 14:21:42 -0700

Google Analytics v StatCounter on VOX

Its a simple choice Google Analytics uses JavaScript and doesn't work in your VOX homepage embed while StatCounter can just use HTML and does work in your VOX homepage embed !

View My Stats

So now you can have webstats on your VOX page if you use StatCounter !

StatCounter

To add GoStats or StatCounter to your VOX just click My VOX, Design, Customise My Sidebar, Embed, Customise then paste the counter HTML into embed section !

Easy ?

Google Analytics - Tracking Not Installed

nobody@vox.com(osde8info) — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 03:06:04 -0700

I've just discovered that "Google Analytics" gives you the "Tracking Not Installed" error if you using HTTP redirects
[code]
<?php header( 'location: login.php' ) ; ?>
[/code]

so you must (temporarily ?) rewrite you code so that the google script is included DIRECTLY in the first page on your website
[code]
<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "UA-747268-6";
urchinTracker();
</script>
[/code]
