Dimension items

Dimension items include domains that visitors click through to your site. If a hit does not have any referrer data (either set or persisted), it groups under the dimension item "Typed/Bookmarked". This dimension item means that there was no referrer value, such as if the visitor manually typed the browser address into the address bar, or clicked a bookmark. The "Typed/Bookmarked" dimension item also appears for redirects that don’t accommodate Analytics. See Redirects and aliases in the Technotes user guide.

Dimension items containing googleusercontent.com

Users can see dimension items with the domain googleusercontent.com.

  • Cached pages: Google’s spiders constantly crawl the web and store copies of pages in case they are taken offline. These cached pages are available next to most search results by clicking the “Cached” link. When a user clicks this link and views the content that Google cached, googleusercontent.com is the dimension item.
  • Translated pages: Google offers a robust and convenient translation service. When viewing a site using this service, it originates from googleusercontent.com. This dimension item appears if the user clicks a link to return to the original content.
