Google Analytics - two visitors between August 13th and September 12th

Question

So I was recently given access to our Google Analytics, and it appears like we only had TWO visitors between August 13th and September 12th... this is for a site that typically has between several hundred to over a thousand visitors per month.

What could have caused this error? Almost certainly we didn't only have two users during this month.

Answer 1

This could be due to a number of things. We will probably need more information. Here are some simple things for starters:

• Is the tracking code correctly included on every single page?
• Is there any other JavaScript on the page that could be interfering with the tracking code?
• Are there any errors in the server/application logs?

Answer 2

Also check whether any Filters are active on the Web Property Profile.
