Home Page Visitors – A Missing Report in Google Analytics
Tags: Google Analytics, visitors

I don’t know if it’s only me, but in the last couple of months I’ve stumbled upon lots of strange/missing reports in Google Analytics. For example, I was trying to explain to one client where the visitors clicked next from his home page and I was then in a strange situation, because I could not answer.
When the clients asked a very simple question “How many VISITORS do I get to the home page?“, i was put in some kind of a bad light, without having a straight,on screen answer. A simple question that is missing a simple answer. On the content detail report there is no information about this. Strange isn’t it?
While I was trying to explain that “unique views” can be counted as visitors, he couldn’t understand why this piece of vital information is missing from the Content Detail report. It will be much simpler if Google Analytics will provide a straight number to this question.
If you want to see the number of visit to you home page here’s a trick, done with advanced segmentation:
