Google+ Photos integration within Google Analytics.

Update: It seems that it tracks only the visitors who are coming through Google+ at http://picasaweb.google.com. So it doesn’t record all your visitors.

Now that Google Plus is using Picasa Web for the photo storage, I was wondering if it was possible to track your Google Plus visitors within Google Analytics.

It turns out, it is more or less possible. And frankly it’s quite simple.

The only requirement is basically that you link your Google Analytics account with your Google Picasaweb albums. Please see my tuturial on how to set this up.

Then after a while you can see the posts coming up. Including the album names.

The only thing is that it seems it doesn’t collect your post photographs. And the Source is direct, due to the HTTPS.

Do you have any experience with this ?
