Google Analytics to Include Bing in Default Search Engine List

Google Analytics is tracking Bing, but it plans further integration of the new search engine soon. While you can currently see Bing as a source of traffic referrals, an upcoming update will include Bing in the default list of search engines.

If you want to have the update sooner, you can manually add the following line to your Google Analytics tracking code:


pageTracker._addOrganic("bing", "q");

The code is considered a temporary solution and is advised for use by advanced analytics users only.
