When we are using Google
Analytics to track clickstream data, we should segment the internal traffic and
ouside traffic for our analysis. We all mainly use IP addresses to exclude the
internal traffic. But it sometimes become difficult when we have the offices in
different geo’s.
Here I am using “Service
provider” report data to exclude all the traffic from internal networks.
Goto Audience -> Technology
->Network
Filter out all the internal
networks by your company name. You can
see all your internal networks there.
You can either create an advanced segment or create a new
profile excluding the internal network traffic.
Advanced Segment
- Goto Advanced Segments.
- Select “Exclude” from first drop down
- Select “Service Provider” from second drop
down
- Then select “containing” from third drop
down as shown in below pic.
- Write your company name in the text box
Create a new profile
- Click “+New Profile”.
- Give name to your new profile.
- Create New Filer.
- Give name to your new filter.
- Select “Customer Filter” and then select “Exclude”
option.
- From “Filter Field” drop down select “Visitor
ISP Organization”.
- Write your company name in “Filter Pattern”
and save it.
Do you know any other way to exclude visitors from internal networks in Google Analytics reports?
