I've created a completely custom website with a custom CMS. I would like to be able to use Google Analytics to get information such as visitor count, popular pages, visitor location(?), etc. I'm not into the analytics part of websites yet, so I've been looking for some easy ways to implement GA into the CMS. I'd love for the analytics dashboar to look similar to Blogger's analytics dashboard.
Does anyone have experience with a script that will get information from GA, and display it in a nice format?
Thanks!
By the way, I am very new to GA, so sorry if some of this doesn't make sense.
Piwik is a good option. It is open source and exposes a web API, so you can probably customize it to your needs.

I currently have Google OAuth 2.0 for authentication. Next I want to be able to use google hangouts in my website so users can chat with each other, along with showing their contact list. So basically I want it to look like how it is on gmail but on my website for hangouts. Main reason for doing this, I want my users to be able use hangouts as a mode of communication. Please let me know if this is possible and provide the necessary resources, an example/demo of this working would really be helpful.
Im afraid there's no API at the moment available (nor plans for that) to access the text chat feature of Hangouts.
yes, you can. More information about google hangouts API here https://developers.google.com/+/hangouts/getting-started
I was just wondering...Other than using User Agent OR Google Analytics, is there any good way to detect proxies? IE people using proxy bots to visit your site? Is there a way to do this in JS?
I've already tried pulling data from Google Analytics using gAPI but it isn't useful since i'd have to make more then 50,000 requests a day and is simply not feasible.
Purpose is because i'm running an ad-management website and wish to stop bots...
How does Adsense manage to block all those China bots from Adsense profit generating?
Would appreciate if there's any thoughts regarding this!
Thanks!
You can use a service like Maxmind to do this.

I want to use the Google analytics API for managing some information.
Let's say I want to know who bought something in my webshop via adwords or not. So I can express my profit against my adwords visitors.
I can't find a good place to start. Maybe someone knows where I can find the proper information?
I want to interact with Google Analytics via PHP.
I managed this by using strings attached to the address (POST or GET method, I can't remember as I was just editing a pre-written cart), so I know when someone adds a product to the cart simply because in my analytics it shows up a page like
../cart.php?action=add&id=39

Google Page Rank
Google Indexed Pages

Inbound Links
DMOZ Directory
Yahoo! Directory
get a summary (my way) much more like http://websitegrader.com
do you know a php class to do that ?
I guarantee you're not going to find one "class" that does all that for you.
Manually checking your site's rank on Alexa is probably going to be your best source of information on top of what Google Analytics is already giving you.
Google Analytics does NOT require any sort of API.
The site you linked to asks for your Google username/password. I'm flagging this question. I encourage others to do the same.
you can get all from alexa api (Alexa Web Services)
