Show filtered graphs in Google Analytics
September 12th, 2007I have always been annoyed by GA not updating the graph at the top of the screen, when you filter a result. For example I filter for “widget” in the keyword section to see all the keywords having “widget” in it. Now the graph doesn’t change, it still shows the graph for ALL keywords.
Fortunately there is a way to show filtered graphs. Just change the date range you display slightly by1 day or so. And there it is… You have a graph showing only the traffic the “widget”-keywords generated.
Here’s a small step-by-step how-to. Sorry for not having changed the language from German to English 
The graphs don’t differ so much, because I filtered for a keyword, that generates most the traffic for this small site.
The unfiltered keyword stats.
Now I have filtered the keywords down to all “widget” keywords. The graph still shows all the keywords like in the first picture.
Now change the date range.
Here you go… Filtered graph. Doesn’t look too different from the unfiltered graph, because “widget” seems o be the main keyword for my page
