We have been tracking the content pages which are getting the traffic from different sources through Google Analytics for our website. Google Analytics append the domain URL after every content page strangely.

On our website example.com, content pages in Google Analytics are being tracked as:


/example.com (instead of /)
/men-shoes/example.com (instead of /mens-shoes/)
/men-shoes/casuals/example.com (instead of /mens-shoes/casuals/)
/men-shoes/sandals/example.com (instead of /mens-shoes/sandals/)
/men-shoes/formals/example.com (instead of /mens-shoes/formals/)




What could be causing this problem?

It looks like misconfigured custom filter for the profile. In standard setup, the home page is normally just /. It is a common practice to create a filter that adds the domain to the beginning to create example.com/.

Have a look at the filters (Admin > Select the view > Filters) and see if there is anything like this setup:



support.google.com/analytics/answer/1012243?hl=en

If the variables in constructor are in wrong order ($B1$A1), it would add the domain to the end of URL.
