Analytics Design Features Settings - Missing Pages issues

3 votes

This feature currently shows False / Positive results, mainly FALSE results due to search engines ability to update external links in a timely many. Google is showing customers links to old products and products/categories that are now hidden.

Great feature for detecting missing pages - however to fix the current issue with the false missing links we would need to spend extra time on google analytics just to update the search results.

Not sure how this feature can be improved upon if it shows false results to to the failings of google and other search engines, for us its a pointless feature and either needs clearer instructions for it's use or a little tweak to ween out those 100's of false results we keep seeing daily, due to hidden products and moved categories.

Hi Darren, I've marked this as 'Not Planned' as this issue can be resolved by making hidden Products visible and hiding the Add To Cart button, or by using the 301 Redirects feature to redirect customers from hidden pages to similar visible ones.
