I thought I'd start a thread for those people using Google Analytics so we can share tips

How to see what people are searching on in your store

  • On your Analytics Dashboard click on edit for the profile you need to work with

  • Under Site search, check the field "Do Track Site Search "

  • Query Parameter (required): stext

  • Yes, strip query parameters out of URL

  • Category Parameter: scat

  • Yes, strip query parameters out of URL

  • Save changes

Regarding Andy's handy Google Analytics User "Site Search" activity tip, the menu location where you set that up have changed a bit. Now you will find it under ADMIN => VIEW => View Settings ... then scroll down to page bottom.

Here is the relevant Google Analytics Help page >>

Gary, I had this set some years ago, then about 8 months ago, I had not been in my analytics account for ages, I began deleting some old non-active sites and accidentally deleted ALL of my sites, including my main ecommerce site.
Years of data gone. I basically deleted my analytics account somehow...

I created a new one and I an now active with it and I had forgotten to set this back up. Thanks for the reminder.
You post some A+ Quality posts my friend.
