Google Analytics

[Legends]

Hi

Has anybody managed to install the new google analytics - available free for google adwords/adsense users.

I have followed their instructions and put the code in the header of both actprimary and actbrochureprimary, but google can't see it

Any body else tried yet?

Cheers

Thanks phil

Looks like a waiting game then to get the code verified.

Just to let anyone else know, I'm now showing my Google Analytic stats - even though it still shows that "the tracking code has not been detected"!

I submitted originally on Thursday, and stats are showing from the point I originally submitted too!

ps. I realise there's another thread on the V7 Support forum, but this seems a more appropriate place for it

pps. the stats they provide are excellent too by the looks of it - well worth signing up!

Graham - I think you are right - in hindsight this is better place for this thread.

Here is copy of my lastest posting on the V7 thread which corrolates you experience so far:

A quick update.

Data has now started to come through having first received some last Thursday and then nothing until yesterday.

Already it is proving most valuable in providing data I just did not know how to (or did not have the time to) interpret from the logs I received previously.

I have already identified some excellent new keywords together with some alternative search sources that are providing excellent conversions.

The only thing that does not appear to be working (form me at least) at the moment is the integration of the Adwords data as all my data is showing organic visits rather than CPC visits - I have raised this with Google and will report back when and if I get an answer. Anyone else also having this issue?

Has anyone yet managed to successfully set up the e-commerce tracking to get actual £ values on conversions?

If so I would love to hear from you as being pretty much a novice at this that is the bit that really does phase me - the rest of the set up has been doddle so far - with some kind help from a number of you - thank you.

Regards

Have now received this from Google team but still not quite sure where I must be going wrong with not having my Adwords stats appearing as I have successfully installed the Analystics tracking code to be able to be seeing the other data.

Hello Robert,

I am writing with further information about the difficulty you are experiencing with your AdWords advertising.

If you find that your AdWords CPC is currently not being imported, we would like to ask you to double-check the following two items:

1) The Google Analytics code snippet: The code installed on the pages needs to be copied from the Google Analytics account.

In order for the AdWords cost data to be automatically imported, the new Google Analytics version of the code snippet needs to be installed on the pages. If you are currently using your old Urchin code snippet, Google Analytics will still be able to track your website usage, but it will not be able to automatically import the AdWords cost data. You can find the new version of the code by clicking the 'Check Status' link next to the appropriate profile on your Analytics Settings page.

2) The "import cost data" option: This option needs to be checked in the profile settings.

Please ensure that the 'apply cost data' checkbox is selected (Analytics Settings > Profile settings > Edit profile information). Should this box not yet be selected, please check it and save the new profile settings. The tracking should then start.

I hope this is helpful. However, if you encounter further difficulty please just let me know.

We look forward to providing you with the most effective advertising available.

Sincerely,

Stephen
The Google UK AdWords Team

Just went to sign up for this and find that google has suspended new sign-ups for the moment due to such a high demand!

You can register an interest and be notified when it's open again for new sign-ups.

Hi,
had the same trouble a couple of weeks ago,when I went back to check the auto generated tracking code I noticed the user account id had changed to -2 and in the original code emailed to me it was -1 after my user account.
I changed it and hey presto after 2 more days the stats are working. Google have suspended new signups due to demand though. It is a very powerful tool indeed and i would recommend it.
Just need to get the conversion tracking set up now.
