: How to stop analytics tracking GET variables? Google tracks every GET variable as a single page. 1 visit - example.com/register.php?ref=6 1 visit - example.com/register.php?ref=12 1 visit - example.com/register.php?ref=2

The Google Help Page has an answer (copied from there):


Sign in to your account at www.google.com/analytics (or click the
Reporting tab in your AdWords account and click 'Google Analytics').
The Analytics Settings page appears.
Find the applicable profile in
the Website Profiles table and click Edit. The Profile Settings page
appears.
Click Edit from the Main Website Profile Information table.
In the Exclude URL Query Parameters field, enter the parameters to
remove from your reports (ex: sid, sessionid, vid). Separate each
parameter with a comma.


If you only need to exclude certain
parameters under particular conditions, or would like to replace a
parameter with a placeholder, you'll need to create an advanced
filter to re-write the URL.
