This is definitely an exciting new feature, as knowing what people search for can help you know what to write about.

Hmmm I will have to take a good look at this.

I have only just installed the analytics code and am looking forward to seeing how well it tracks my blog.

It’s ok but it only refreshes once a day. I just wish it had detailed info on feed subscribers. For real time tracking I use Reinvigorate.

Hm. I think the first step would be to add Google search TO my site. I’m not even gonna lie, I’ll probably never get around to doing that. But still, this is a cool feature and I’m glad to see Analytics constantly improving since it’s currently my #1 go to in analytical apps for my site.

If they could just offer real-time tracking, I’d be happier

This is good to know, and should be a useful feature, although if it is tracking users who are searching on my site, I should be able to get the same information from the FireStats plugin that I have installed. I can already see all of the referring URLs and their info, including the ones from my site’s search bar.

Meanwhile, I still need to look at this Google Analytics thing. I’ve been reading a lot about it lately in articles, newsletters, etc. but have not actually seen it in action yet.

@Karl:
I’ve considered using the FireStats plugin but I didn’t want to increase the blog’s load time since I’m already using Google Analytics and Reinvigorate. I’m still tempted though
