Today, I found that the server of Google Analytics cannot be accessed from China. Ping its domain name does not work, and the resolved IP address is wrong. Some of the resolved IPs are Twitter, some are Facebook, but there is no Google. It is suspected to be DNS. Pollution.

Using the DNS pollution detection tool to detect the domain name https://ift.tt/S1HyRsu, it shows that “this domain name has been polluted”, and the polluted proportion is 58%. Since DNS synchronization takes up to 48 hours, it is believed that after a period of time, the polluted proportion will reach 100 %.

Google Analytics

Impact: Since this domain name is the domain name of the Google Analytics statistical code, it will prevent domestic webmasters from using Google Analytics to count domestic website traffic, and the code will also slow down website access.

If domestic webmasters want to continue to use Google Analytics, I found that the old version of Google Analytics domain name (https://ift.tt/tUvbT90) can still be accessed, so domestic webmasters can use the old version of ga.js Google Analytics statistics The code can also continue to use Google Analytics, but the old version of Google Analytics will be discontinued on July 1, 2023, so this method can only be used for a few months.

Google Analytics is a website traffic statistics service provided by Google. It can conduct statistics and analysis of visiting data on the target website, and provide various parameters for website owners to use. Google Analytics is now the most widely used web analytics service on the Internet.

Google Analytics was originally a paid website traffic statistics service operated by Urchin. In April 2005, Google announced the acquisition of Urchin and opened some services that originally required payment for free use. By adding Google Analytics tracking code to the website, webmasters can obtain information on website traffic, including sources, users, devices, access paths, etc. Through Google Analytics, they can have a more comprehensive understanding of the brand’s audience and provide potential customers It is a very recommended tool for website administrators to optimize the purchase and access process and improve the willingness to transfer orders.
