Google Analytics Is Broken

Posted by Paul B | March 12, 2008 .

I’ve been hunting high and low for any information on this and can find nothing. It looks like Google Analytics is broken at the moment and has been for the last few days. A couple of the problems I’m experiencing:-

1. Visitor graph on the dashboard is not including the last/current day
2. Goal reporting is all over the place, selecting today’s date seems to bring up yesterdays goals
3. Visitor numbers vary wildly between what the graphs show and what the site usage stats report

I’ve taken a screen grab of the first problem, if you look closely you can see that I’ve selected a date range from March the 9th to March the 12th. When I hover my cursor over the last day on the graph it only shows data up until the 11th. The strange thing is if you only select a date range from the 11th to the 11th it highlights and shows data from the 10th, something is seriously screwed.

I was wondering if maybe some sort of daylight saving has been implemented stateside that has caused some problems, computers hate dates! I rely so heavily on the stats for all my websites that even little things like this can end up costing me money/ me missing an opportunity.
