I've been reading up on how to filter out spam from Google Analytics. In this case, I'm trying to filter out the spam that shows up under referrals.
In the Filter Pattern
field of Analytics, I have the following:
semalt\.com|buttons-for-website\.com|rank-checker\.online|monetizationking\.net|site-auditor\.online
Yet it makes no difference to my Analytics. I've also clicked the verify
link but all I get back is:
This filter would not have changed your data. Either the filter configuration is incorrect, or the set of sampled data is too small.
Am I doing something wrong?
