Google Analytics


Have any of you people who use tracking software ever had trouble with google analytics? I logged into my analytics site and it said it couldnt be detected on my home page. Maybe its my web host I have had problems with in the past.

Re: Google Analytics


You probably just didn't put the code in the right place. I've never had any problems with them.

Where did you put the code?

Re: Google Analytics


I looked at the code, it looks like it is in the right place. when did you put the code in? It might take 24 hours for it to fully function....but once you get it working it is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Re: Google Analytics


It was working great. As of yesterday I went to check it and it shows nothing saying it can not be detected. I didnt install it, footbridge media installed it. Since I had trouble getting estimate requests in the past while they were hosting, I thought this might be the problem.

I wouldn't think that would be the problem, because Footbridge would have just copied the script and pasted it in your web page.

Are you no longer hosting with Footbridge?

On your estimate form, the action must have been wrong.

Is your form still not working?

I can take a look at it.

Re: Google Analytics


Did you try the Google analytics help center on the support tab from where you log in to analytics?

I had similar problem and in 5 mins was fixed.

Re: Google Analytics


When you log into analytics, instead of clicking on "View Reports",
click on "Edit" under the Settings column.
Then click on "Check Status" at the upper right corner.

See if your tracking code that they show you matches what's on your page.
What does the tracking status information say? Is it "recieving data"?
