| that's a screen capture from google analytics. it shows a search query that i typed into google's ssl search. the page i clicked through to is on our secure (https / ssl) subdomain.
yep. there you have it - keywords. from ssl search ... but how is this even possible? didn't the marketerati tell me ssl search was the death of analytics? (yes, they did.) you see,mbt footwear sale, although browsers don't send referrer data when you click from an encrypted / secure (https / ssl) page to an unencrypted / insecure (http) page ... they do send that data when you go from one secure page to another . so if google ever goes ssl by default, so will the rest of us ... and the web will be a safer place. with keywords. (yes, browser developers could change the way browsers behave. they could also stop sending referrer data in all contexts, by default, which would really be the death of analytics *.) * except, of course, that many of your visitors already send no referral data, thanks to privacy settings / software and firewalls and whatnot ... and i'd wager there are more people using norton or symantec or mcafee's referral-stripping software right now, than there are using ssl search. the world is still here, and you still rely on your analytics data to make decisions. |
