When someone presses the 'Cached' in Google search for one of my pages, the stats are appearing in my Google Analytics. Why is this? So for example, someone does a search, presses 'Cached' and then 'Back'. My bounce rate then becomes 100% for the URL. /search?q=cache:IFvceag13YkJ:www.MY DOMAIN HERE.aspx+BROWNING+UNDERCOAT&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk Surely this should not be in my stats because it is on the Google server.
Google Analytics is showing this details because whenver any click on that cached version of that website, the user landed to text version of last cached website. so if ga code is placed on that website. then ga shows the cache details of that website because google is considering that you have been visitor of that website. now you get ?
..if you still have this problem i'd recommend setting up a filter to exclude these urls from your reports
Thanks guys. I will try and use a filter. Does anyone else have this issue? My bounce rate is high at the moment, and i have about 250 of these pages, all with a bounce rate '100%'.
@ leopoise - Yea two heads are better then one. I need to find a way to remove them. Cannot seem to filter them out either.
