Advanced Segments for Remarketing Lists
-
Hello Moz community!
I have a question around advanced segmentation for a client and was hoping someone would like to take a crack at it. Basically, I’m trying to establish segments which map to areas of the sales funnel, which I can then utilize as remarketing lists.
So the scenario is this, for the time being we have 4 stages, let’s call them Aware, Interested, Engaged and Intent. For each of these stages a user will need to meet specific criteria. So for instance, Aware segment looks like the following
Aware:
- Visited 1x
- (site.com/home)
- Had 2 unique page views/session
That’s pretty easy to do in segments. Where it gets a little more confusing is when we try to take it to the “Interested” category. Which would have the criteria of
Interested
- All of aware
- Repeat visitor (2x in last 30 days)
- Visited specific deeper pages
- (site.com/home/page1)
- (site.com/home/page2)
- Had specific events fire

In GA, does this segment architecture make sense?

Filter users Include
Page Contains site.com/home
AND
Unique Pageviews per session ≥ 2
Filter Users Include
Page Contains site.com/home/page1
OR
Page Contains site.com/home/page2
AND
Count of Sessions session ≥ 2
Filter Users Include

I would love any feedback on this! Thanks in advance

Hi Drew,
I’ve found this to be a useful method for enriching your Remarketing lists past the standard setup. Here are a few comments on what you proposed:
Aware There isn’t one right answer but I would suggest tailoring this segment a bit more unless you feel this is enough to be considered “Aware”. I recommend adding criteria such as “time on page” (exclude or include) to enrich it further.
Interested
I recommend not just inheriting the criteria of “Aware” but taking it a step further. For example, if the “time on page” for “Aware” is 30 seconds, I would make this stage 60 seconds.Also, it sounds like making specific events trigger would be better suited for the “Engaged” stage.
Just a side note, but be sure not to use a filter along the lines of “include” with page “does not contain” as that is not the ideal setup.
Hope this helps!

Hello, May last year my site took a major fall. I am unsure why, and it's time I found out why. Recently I have rebuilt the site from scratch, except for the urls and content, and it's starting to turn back. What is the best method to go about understanding just what caused the decline? What are the options I have? See the image for a graph of the all-time traffic. http://i.imgur.com/uL93yPj.png My website in question is: www.ditalia.com.au Thanks. uL93yPj.png

Some questions on how to set up a multi-visit advanced segment in Google Analytics
Hi I would like some assistance / clarification on how to set up a user segment so that it can track user behavior over multiple visits. Basically I have a campaign set up and want to see conversions - even if they hit the site and then convert later on another visit. I've read that you can do this (over up to 30 days). So I start off by filtering TRAFFIC SOURCE - easy enough. But then I have to add under "advanced" correct? But then when I set the next filter to the GOAL I want, I only get "by session" and "by hit" as options. The blog post I read made it sound like only "by user" would then really do multi visits. Is "by user" only an e-commerce tracking option? (which I don't have set up) Is there another way/path to get the info I need? Thank you!

Uptick in not tracked conversions / anyone have a list of things that google analytics will not track
There seems to have been an uptick in users on our site not being tracked in Google Analytics cause I see a lot more un-tracked revenue in the last 6 months then I used to. I know analytics is still working as it has been tracking a normal amount of visits but I assumed there might be a reason less would be actually showing up in analytics (mabye a change is what is being reported as organic). I know a lot of stuff goes into "not provided" such as logged in search and stuff like that but is there a list of all of the ones that go into not provided and all that just do not get tracked (javascript not enabled, iOS?). If it could be something else as well let me know. Thanks for the help!

What is the difference between "Organic Traffic" and the "Non-Paid Search Traffic" default segment in Google Analytics?
These two filtering options ("organic traffic" in the left sidebar and "non-paid search traffic" in the advanced segments) give me slightly different numbers. Any idea why this would be the case?

Best way to generate analytics reports for listing style website
I'm working on a website that includes dedicated pages for ~40 local businesses, and I need to be able to generate and export some basic reports I can send to each business. The data I need for each report is split between general sitewide data: total number of visitors to the site for month. number of visitors to each main category page what country they are from (main countries) - top 5 traffic source / keywords avg time on site As well as specific data for each individual page: how many people viewed specific total pages Time spent on individual page. Would this be possible with custom reports in analytics? I can see the number of different reports being difficult to maintain, especially as site grows. Anyone had expereince on a similar site of ideas on the best way to do this? Thanks
