To see the domain name along with the request path in the reports, create an advanced filter for your profile with the following settings:
Filter Type: Custom filter > Advanced
Field A: Hostname
Extract A: (.*)
Field B: Request URI
Extract B: (.*)
Output To: Request URI
Constructor: $A1$B1
You can also create a profile for each subdomain. For example ...

There are two approaches you can take.
First is to create a profile for each part. You will need to create a profile for each part, then make a filter with each profile to only collect data for that part.
For example if the admin area is at example.com/admin:
New profile named Admin Area
In the new profile, create a filter called Include Admin traffic ...

Yes, those off page conversions are counted as well, as long as the Google Analytics goal stays the same (eg. all those forms have the same Thank you page).
If those other forms have other Analytics goals associated with them, then they are not counted.

It might be possible that lots of visitors come to a single page and leaves your website, that is why it shows 100% bounce rate.

Google Analytics works by executing javascript after the page load to register a page view. Most bots and web spiders simply load html part and do not execute javascript, therefore page view is not reported to GA.

First, let's clear up a misconception in the other answers: Google search does not use Google Analytics in any way for ranking.
Matt Cutts at Google confirmed this years ago. And if you think about it logically, for the most part it does not make sense for them to use that data for two reasons: (1) most sites get most of their traffic from Google, so ...

I don't know what exactly you want to track. ManicTime is an application which can record everything that is done on a computer like opening documents, computer uptime, visited websites and so on.

Google has a lot of ways to collect data about you and your website. They can tell how much traffic you get via Google search and Google analytics (as you mentioned) they also have android, gmail, chome browser, chrome OS, Google reader (for a little longer at least), youtube, and Google plus just to name a few sources. You don't need to rely on GA to get ...

EDIT: your question is a bit misleading, but as per the comment you gave on your question.. here is my answer.
Page Views / Traffic is only tracked via Google Analytics, but that doesn't mean that your site wont get indexed anymore. You will gain page rank even without google analytics via the amount of link backs (other sites linking back to you) thus your ...

The question is too global as for me. There are numerous ways to optimize conversions. One of them is to see the e-commerce reports and analyze them. See which products or services are the most popular, improve them.
Then see the most unpoplular and improve them too.
To get more info and knowledges you should read books about GA and e-commerce. Also you ...

This is mainly down to caching. Your pages may be served from a user's local browser cache, which will continue to log visits from old URLs. Other users may be viewing a cached version in Google, which also carries Google Analytics code.

Google analytics shouldn't care that the IP addresses are different for different subdomains, or even that it is using DNS CNAME vs A records.
You may have issues with:
Putting your analytics tracking code onto all of those servers. The software running each subdomain will have to be able to serve up the analytics code.
Tracking domain.atlassain.net ...

Since you are using Amazon, there is no reason for you to use your domain providers "invisible redirection". Instead you should:
Sign up for Amazon AWS Route 53 DNS Service
In route 53, create a "Hosted Zone" for your domain
Add an A records for both .yourdomain.com and www.yourdomain.com with the static IP address of your ec2 machine.
Go to your domain ...

I try this and it works for me:
Insert the script code below at the end of your HTML code, just before the tag:
<script>
var _gaq=[['_setAccount','UA-XXXXXXXX-X'],['_trackPageview']];
(function(d,t){var g=d.createElement(t),s=d.getElementsByTagName(t)[0];

You can add an event handler to all links that point to a specific domain.
For example if the domain you are linking to is example.com and jQuery 1.0+:
var linksToHost = $('a').filter(function(){
return this.host.match(/^example\.com$/);
})
linksToHost.bind('click', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
_gaq.push(['_link', this.href]);
})

Easy to do. You need to create a profile for each domain, then make a filter for each profile to only collect data for a single domain.
For example for site1.com:
New profile named site1.com
In the new profile create a filter Include site1.com traffic only
Filter type set as Custom filter and Include
Filter field as Hostname
Filter pattern as ^site1\.com$

To stop further intrusions change all the passwords for GA and remove the individual from the shared access list.

Would this work?

This Stack Overflow answer makes some good points.
It would be important to explicitly specify the protocol so that the target asset is loaded correctly within a document opened from a local drive (file:) or when using "iframe magic" (about:).

The time spent viewing the last page is (by default) not included in the time on page calculation by Google analytics. This is because they can only measure the data that they are sent. Here are is the data they get:
page one loaded at 10:03:00
page two loaded at 10:03:10
page three loaded at 10:03:20
So the stats would be:
Visit duration: 20s

The best way to do this would be to download the data as a csv, which is readable by excel, and then make the chart in there.

The code you're using is the new beta Universal Analytics code and I was having similar difficulties with it. My solution was to delete the account and create a new one using the older non-beta code and within seconds it was running fine.

I wouldn't worry about that. Sometimes the Google Analytics Dashboard takes a while to update the status, while in fact the tracking is already working. To be sure, go to Real-Time-Tracking in your Google Analytics Dashboard and see if the traffic updates while surfing your website.
From the sourcecode of your site, the tracking snippet seems to be ...

You must put the Google Analytics script just before the closing </head> tag, not at the end of your webpage.
For more information, read Google guidelines to install Google Analytics on your website.

Maybe not in your case but it does seem to make a difference in the initial indexing process, since the script says "Hello Google, here I am, a new site." whereas a site without that script has to be found otherwise, through incoming links and so on.

At least around May/June 2010 the answer was no:
Webspam does not use Google Analytics. And a while ago I went and checked and search quality in general, does not use Google Analytics in ranking. So you can use Google Analytics, you can not use Google Analytics, it won't effect your ranking within Googlesearch results.

Google (or Matts Cutts) never officially said that removing the GA tracker would change the position of a specific web page in search results.
However, you can make your own SEO experience. Try to remove the GA tracker for a month and check if there is a noticeable difference.

Although Google likes force webmasters to use their tools, I don't think using Google Analytics takes into account for websites indexing or ranking. There are too many big websites that prefer to use other web analytics systems like Piwik or Yandex.Metrica.
In my opinion, you can remove Google Analytics's script from your website.

I would say no drawbacks.
If you add it at the bottom of your main js file it won't be different than adding it inline in HTML page after the main js file.
The posdible variable conflicts could be the same either it's added inline in HTML page or at the bottom of your main js file.
I don't even see how it could slow down because it's calling an external ...

You ALWAYS have to worry about collissions of variables defined in the
global scope in JavaScript, REGARDLESS of whether you minify your
scripts or not. Use a functional closure wrapper to wrap your code if
you want to minimize chances of collission.
The problem is that it can conflict with other scripts of course you ...

These tags will show up in Google Analytics so the manufacturer is probably using that for their analytics, rather than something that looks at referral logs. As for how reliable referer (sic) is see this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6023941/how-reliable-is-http-referer.

To answer your question (sort of).
I would used AdWords conversion code. Paste each code from each account onto your conversion page one after the other (if it is page).
Not only will that work - but you won't have to import the goal to AdWords, and you'll see the conversion data far quicker in AdWords.

Google Analytics tracks HTTP and HTTPS with it's default configuration. So I think it's likely that your problems are some other configuration of your Analytics code.

It is possible that the page title is set dynamically after dom is loaded, so initially the title is not set.
So google analytics is tracking the pageview twice, once with title not set and then after title is set.
