I am using Google Analytics to trace and analyze my website, but i found more than 90% of 'Avg. Time on Page' is zero(see the screen shot below). I searched a lot and found most of the answers are the user closed that page directly and didn't go to next page so the 'Avg. Time on Page' is zero, but i am sure this is not my case.
Could any body know the reason or any clue? Thanks a lot in advance!

I'm asking if anyone is having the same problem as I currently am and if they can help. Currently, for the past 5 days or so, The Google Analytics E-commerce section has not been recoding any payments or revenue when in the back end we know it is happening.
This started when the client added Facebook pixel to the website but was reassured that their IT team did not touch any of the tracking codes for the rest of the website.
Below is the graph of when E-commerce stopped tracking.
I have double-checked the entire flow and double-check the tracking codes to the entire website. But this still hasn't shown what the problem could be.
Any help would be appreciated and has this ever happened to any of you guys as well? This has only happened once about 2 years ago (same client) when E-Commcerce tracking just stopped without a reason and came back about a month after.
Is the tracking hardcoded on the site or are you using Tag Manager?
My guess is the pixel broke some code, I don't know if the GA hardcoded or the dataLayer.
Do a test transaction, on the confirmation page do the following: Right Click on the site > Inspect > Console
Check if you get error, could you paste them here?
Also if you're using GTM, can you type 'dataLayer' on the confirmation page. It should return something.
This is just to understand the problem. I need more info to give you a solution.
We are having an issue with our tracking on www.x3tradesmen.com where a Google Tag Manager tag is firing way too many times and we cannot determine why...
We only have one website event tag linked to Google Analytics called Form Submit and typically we would receive between 2-10 Form Submit events per day at the most, however, recently we have noticed that the tag is firing 1000's of times sporadically and we cannot pinpoint the issue. We have also noticed that our users have drastically increased for short time periods (minutes/hours). We typically only get 40-80 users per day on our website but we saw a massive spike of around 400 users in less than one hour once.
We recently added the facebook pixel via GTM and that is really the only change that we have made and now we are seeing these issues. Does anyone know of any common reasons to why this would be behaving this way or can anyone see any major issues with our implementation of GA or GTM on our website that would cause this?
I know this information is vague, so please let me know if there is specific information that would help identify the issue.
Thanks in advance!

I presume it is the FB pixel - Facebook automatically collects information in addition to what you have configured yourself and uses post/submit events to send them. You can disable that behaviour as per documentation and see if it makes a difference:
Automatic Configuration
The Facebook pixel will send button click and
page metadata (such as data structured according to Opengraph or
Schema.org formats) from your website to improve your ads delivery and
measurement and automate your pixel setup. To configure the Facebook
Pixel to not send this additional information, in the Facebook Pixel
Base code, add fbq('set', 'autoConfig', 'false', '')
above the init call.
I had a similar issue where suddenly additional submit events turned up in the GTM preview pane that I finally tracked down to FB, so there is a good chance that yours is the same problem.
can any help?
Currently I have page with an image loading. Every time the image loads I write to a database:
Count = Count +1
I have tested my code by refreshing my page and the image count works correctly (going up by one each time).
Currently the count for this month is over 60,000, however in Google Analytics on that page it shows the pageview as 1800 and the unique pageview even less.
Has anyone any idea why the numbers are so far apart from my count and Google pageview.
How does Google calculate it's pageviews? Are spiders the issue?
Thanks
Google Analytics records data using an image request sent via Javascript -- meaning most bots/spiders won't show up.
I'd suggest taking at look at your server logs. Each image request you're tracking should have a corresponding page request. Maybe your image is being hotlinked?

I would like to ask a question, my website is Luxos.com, We dont have this page www.luxos.com/interface/iframe/iframe1.html in our root directory,
In google analytics we are getting visits to this page everyday about 200-1000, And bounce rate is 100%, average time is 0, We really dont understand why we are getting traffic from this page, almost 90% visitors are from china,
This is because of facebook ?? But for sharing we are using Sharethis Api widget, i checked very carefully from my whole website we dont have a single iframe code,
Please help me regarding this, Thanks
Visitors look for iframe1.html but not found. Therefore, the bounce rate is 100%.
