Referring Domains Validity

Avatar

Level 3

Hi,

I notice that sometimes, the debugger tells me the wrong referring domains.

I went to www.google.com and searched for my company keyword, then, clicked on the right link on the search result to land on our website. The DigitalPulse debugger did not tell me that the referring domain is www.google.com but instead, is the index page of our website. Why so?

Besides that, I went to our company youtube channel and clicked on our website link on our youtube channel to come to our website. Again, DigitalPulse debugger did not tell me that I came from youtube. 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

It might be due to the fact that there is a redirected between google and you site of youtube and your site. If case of a redirect, if you do not set up the right redirect the original referrer, in your case google or youtube is lost.

 

Best regards.

Right, it could be that case.

Btw, what is the latest version of DigitalPulse Debugger? Where to obtain it?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

 

DigitalPulse debugger is good tool to start to debug. However you might want to switvch to a packet monitor like HttpFox or Charles.

If you filter by /b/ss you will only obtain image request generated by SiteCatalyst implementation. The link that Akhil should provide the list of all the parameters and what they correspond too.

 

Best regards.
