Hello,
About the "Single Page Visits" calculation, the doc says:
This metric counts the number of visits where the 'Page' dimension item contained (1)only a single unique value for the entire visit. (2)If a visitor reloads the page or fires link tracking calls, it still counts as a single page visit. As soon as the Page dimension changes to a second unique value, the visit no longer qualifies as a single page visit.
In fact, the above description seems very clear, however, I still have a few questions:
1. How to define "a single unique value" in (1)?
My assumption is something like "Select DISTINCT(PageName) From XX". Is it correct?
2. Based on (2), "If a visitor reloads the page or fires link tracking calls, it still counts as a single page visit. As soon as the Page dimension changes to a second unique value, the visit no longer qualifies as a single page visit.", I define 4 test cases and execute them today, the following are my expected and actual results:
[TC1] Visit1: PV(Luma Home) + Link Tracking Call(When viewing Featured Product Section, the call will be fired)
Expected: SPV + 1
Actual: SPV + 1(Pass)
[TC2] Visit2: PV(Luma Women) + Refresh PV two times(Luma Women)
Expected: SPV + 1. Although the visit has 3 PVs, the visit only has a single unique value for Page(that is "Women").
Actual: No SPV occurred
[TC3] Visit3: PV(Luma Equipment) + Refresh PV only one time(Luma Equipment)
Expected: SPV + 1. Although the visit has 2 PVs, the visit only has a single unique value for Page(that is "Equipment").
Actual: No SPV occurred
[TC4] Visit4: PV(Luma Home) + Link Track(Featured Product) + Refresh PV(Luma Home)
Expected: SPV + 1. Although the visit has a link tracking call and 2 PVs, the visit only has a single unique value for Page(that is "Home").
Actual: No SPV occurred
Could someone answer me why the above TC2/3/4 have no SPV occurred? or if my understanding of SPV calculation is wrong, what is the correct? Thanks
Steven
