Can I track IP address through Google Analytics?

HI All,

Can I track IP address through Google Analytic? If yes then please guide me how can i track it.

 

Due to user privacy concerns, Google Analytics doesn't report on personally identifiable information, including a visitor's IP address. Instead, Google Analytics provides aggregated data to help you make informed business decisions. You can view the Map Overlay report (under the Visitors section) to look at aggregated geographical data about your visitors, or view the Network Location report (under Visitors > Network Properties) to see your visitors' ISP locations.

 

Yes, even i have checked this for my websites. I have also seen the ISP locations too. Thanks.

 

You cannot track IP addresses with Google Analytics. It is against the Google Analytics privacy policy to track "Personally dentifiable Information"

 

I wish I could see user ips from google analytics

 

theres something called leadlander, used for b2b - can track company names of people on your site with ip addresses? anyone kow how this works?

 

The most identifiable information you can see for your visitors in Analytics is through the 'service provider' filter. Sometimes specific visiting your site can be identified in this way.

 

you can locate the network / ISP with GA. for accurate and specific details you need to use ip trackers.

 

If I want to block a specific IP from viewing my site how do I do that?

 

I wish that you could track IP addresses, would really help with competitors constantly viewing my site.

 

The IP addresses will be on your web hosts server logs though. Have you checked with them to see if there's a way to access the logs?
There are many applications that can read the logs and show analytic information.

 

If you have a Wordpress site, install the free plugin called StatCounter and you can see all visitors IP addresses (and much more).

 

I have wp. Thanks for sharing that!

 

There is no such features on Google Analytics. So you won't tract the specific IP address.

 

I am looking for the same..for my site. So i can known how many my home members visiting my website.

 

We cannot track the ip address but can filter particular ip address using filter option.

 

Use filter option in google analytics.

 

U can exclude your home ip address using filter option in google analytics

 

Thanks for that! I will install the plugin. It would be great if it were able to track IP's and also if they had clicked on an Adwords ad to get to your page.

 

I use the free open source PIWIK for tracking - shows IP for every visitor and lots more besides
