We are fairly restrictive about giving access to that data. You'd have
to check that with -core.
We've always said no in the past, though we have shared specific
pre-generated reports from time to time.
Through a quick discussion with Jonathan yesterday it seems the data
in there isn't actually that correct anyway - it looks like we're
hitting the limit of what the free tier of google analytics will give
us, and have been hitting that for quite some time, so we don't really
know what the numbers are...
Hmm, that would explain a thing or two...
Unfortunately, the next level up plan for Google Analytics that would get us all the data starts at $150K / year. But I wonder if they have some options for nonprofits?
Wow. That's insane.
Heh, I didn't think this would be a simple process.
If the site is maxing out the "free" version of Google Analytics, that means 10M+ impressions/hits (not page views) a month which is already saying something.
There is certainly some filtering that can be done in the free version that would arrive at some useful metrics for everyone.
Jonathan, what makes you think the data isn't "correct" (or being collected correctly)?
Magnus did some rough calculations off the cuff based on some of the major-viewed pages within the GA token that the site uses and figured we are above those limits.
