Google Analytics is a popular web analytics tool, and it’s great at what it does.
It also provides info that no other analytics tool shows, like Google search queries.
However, Google Analytics doesn’t show a full picture of your website’s traffic.
Google Analytics’ weakness is its JavaScript tracking code. You won’t see Users in your GA reports when:
- The tracking code or tracking request is blocked
- A file is accessed directly and doesn’t load the tracking code (e.g. PDF files)
The number of Users who block Google Analytics tracking increases each year.
Investigate this problem on your own websites: the results will be surprising.
This isn’t just a GA problem – it affects all web analytics tools that rely on JS-based tracking.
Angelfish Software is a self-hosted web analytics solution that doesn’t rely on JavaScript tracking.
Use Angelfish WITH Google Analytics to see what you’re missing!
