Problem with google analytics

by Hypno mind
15 replies
Hello

I've signed up yesterday on google analytics, I've added my domain which contain nothing, and then I wanted to add my squeeze page, I created a new property or a new folder and I've put the link of my squeeze page, they gave me the html code to put it on my squeeze page before the </head> and I did and saved the changes, then I was confused about where can I see the statistics of each page, so I removed the first folder which contain just my domain I left the second one which contain my squeeze page " www.mydomain.com/squeezepage " it looks like that.

After that I took the HTML code once again and I've add it to the squeeze page and saved everything and when I go to check if the code is installed I always find this:" Tracking Not Installed ".

This is the first time I'm using google analytics that's why I think I'm having these problems, I hope somone here help me, where is the problem?

    here is what's written under the tracking code is not installed: The Google Analytics tracking code has not been detected on your website's home page. For Analytics to function, you or your web administrator must add the code to each page of your website.

    but I don't have a home page! all what I have is an empty domain and a squeeze page with that domain www.mydomain.com/squeezepage

    when I enter to my domain without adding the /squeezepage all the files that I'm uploading to my server appears!! how can I stop that? if somebody enters it he will see all my other squeeze pages and all my files?!! I noticed that just now!! help me guys.

        you're right, it's not the right thread. And the fact that I've watched you go from pretty much 0 posts to 25 in the span of maybe an hour and a half - none of which that I've seen so far have contributed to the conversation really - is verging on spamming there buddy.

        If you want to ask a question that is not relevant to THIS thread - post your own question thread for it.

        Put something in the main domain! That's how you can stop that. Whether it's a placeholder "coming soon" template or an actual website, whatever floats your boat. or, go into your cpanel and redirect the main to your squeeze.

        As far as the squeeze page, if it's html you can just slip the analytics code in the head section.

      Honestly I'm a hands on kinda person - I have to be able to see and touch an issue to help fix it. Since I can't see inside your setup I can't really help you since you said the code is in there.

      Plus I had to go to the doc today so I went poof on ya - sorry about that. At least in our line of work we don't get docked pay for such things!

    You could just rename the page "index.html"... then that would be the only page that someone would see when they came to your site. If it's not ready (which sounds so) then just put a "website under construction" type of description in the middle of the page. You can save a blank page as "index.html" if you'd like.

      Also... Make sure you hit the enter key after pasting in code... and make sure nothing else is on the line with it!

    Instead of hanging around hoping someone is going to reply why not Google your problem?
