Google analytics realtime, or not ?

Discussion in 'Google Analytics' started by Poupoutane, Feb 18, 2010.

    Hi

    I recently opened a google analytics account to monitor one of my sites, but I find strange, I cannot have access to realtime data analytics.

    Isn't G analytics supposed to perform realtime analytics on your site's visits .

    Cheers
    :confused:

    First of all make sure that Analytics started gathering your data. It needs some time to gather information after adding the code and adding the site into Analytics panel.

    And about being real time, no it is not real time. You can check this thread for details.

    No, Google Analytics is not a realtime tracker. There are other products like "Omniture Site Catalyst" that aim to provide near realtime tracking, but unless you're a e. g. very news heavy site that needs up to the minute reports on which stories "work" and drive traffic, most sites can leave with the up to 24 hour time lag.

    In most cases Google Analytics will fill in data earlier. We have an approximate lag of 3 hours.

    The delay is around 2-24 hours.
    It's absolutely not real time.

    they are delayed to 4 or 5 hours
    if you receive the traffic today at 11 pm
    you will get the stats after 3 hours i.e 2am

    Some time if you have done changes in code of Google analytic or replaced it then analytic stop gathering the data.so you first verify the status of analytic and if it indicates of gathering data then you should contact Google analytic support team.

    there's a couple of hours delay on Google Analytics report. So I usually check and compare the statistics one day after (just to make sure I won't miss a thing) ;)
