Google analytics gives fake Result...?

Discussion in 'Google Analytics' started by sskumarmdu, Dec 10, 2009.

    We are running Internet Cafe based Desktop Ad platform for online Advertisers. We can Track Clicks & impressions like Google Analytics.

    When we are checking in our tracking details for our advertiser, For Ex: our platform tracking up to 200 clicks, but Client's Google analytics shows only 25 clicks from our site. We don't understand that Google Analytics result..!?

    Note: Some clicks came from the same IP, because, in cafe, a single machine used by multiple users.

    I think, if many clicks came from the same IP, Google analytics can track single click.

    It might be due to from the same IP which had this effect, just check it once since you are operating from a internet cafe.

    No, Google has an interval of 30 minutes to count clicks from the same IP.
    Even though , i also have some bad remark on google Analytics.
    since they are providing free services they are not updating the results properly.

    Yeah, i dont think Google Analytics update stats promptly but i have heard about the 30 minutes interval.
    Generally, if clicks are spread out and not too rampant, it counts

    Do not forget that user may close your site before it fully loaded. In this case, before the site call analytics script and send tracking information, they alread 'dead'.

    I have seen some times about the drastic changes in google analytics report. Google works on its own algorithm,,if the visit comes from the same ip address continuously,, than google some time show only one visit,,for more details you can use the help section of google analytics

    You should also see number of pageviews per visit. That number should be high for the geographic location of your place.
