The problem I've run into is that I want to institute some specific link tracking and am worried that I will be creating a race condition. Basically, it's a news website so it has headlines which link to stories all over the place. A headline for...
So far I've seen flurry and Mixpanel. Mixpanel appears to be the most interesting: http://mixpanel.com/android-analytics/ and has a flexible API. However still wondering what else is out there and what other people might be using, thanks! ...

Just when I get quite familiar with SQL statements once again, when pulling data from Google Analytics, I found that they don't use SQL, but rather, use Dimensions and Metrics and the combinations of them. Why is a reason for that? I think it doesn't have a SQL interface (or a plain web server log download)? If so, how do SQL statemen...
From a 'gradually adding more reports'- standpoint: is it possible to add settings like filters, ecommerce-metrics, funnels, etc. 1 at a time, and still have them be applied to the data prior to the date you applied the settings? (have the settings backward propagated if that's correct english) I can image if GA keeps the raw underlyi...

I am building a customer-facing website that requires me to build 1) some analytics for customers, and 2) to maintain some internal analytics for improving the site further.

Is there an analytics tool of any kind to analyse the performance of selectors on a site (ie. number of iterations over the dom, average time taken for each search, number of searches etc.)? Either a desktop tool, or a jQuery plugin or anything? We are finding performance is being impacted by the number of selector searches jQuery is do...

I need to add analytics feature to our web service so we can provide our customers a way to understand their own content. I was wondering if anybody can provide some pointers, guidelines on designing such solutions. I know this is a little too open-end. Here is a list of concrete questions, and I have a vague idea on some of them but I w...
I wanted to look up the page views of my website in the "Top Content" section. By increasing the time period I had the phenomena of decreasing page views for the same page and the same day. The longer the time period, the smaller the page views. On August 12 there were 1410 page views. June 1 - August, 16: When I look at August 12, the...

I want to be able to allow my writers to see how much traffic their articles are getting.

Here's the scenario: I have a mailing list that contains a PDF download link. The PDF contains ads with clickable links. I need to get analytic data on the link clicks - preferably via Google Analytics (due to the richness of information available).

I'm building an application that requires storage and querying of very large amount of timestamped data. Specifically, this is analytics type data whereby a particular "set" can contain up to 100 separate data points tied together via a shared timestamp. This data is static, in that it will never change once stored but may be queried mul...
