Weighted Sort – Effective Sorting In Google Analytics

Google has been adding more options to their Analytics tool as of now. This time they introduced ‘Weighted Sort’ option to the bounce rate and also available in the other section like goal conversion rate, % new visits etc.. So far the bounce rate of 100% with only one visit has been sorted at the top when it has been sorted by clicking on the ‘Bounce Rate’ column. There is no use of tracking this data for any of your campaign and also you supposed to view the useful data by manually which are in the next set of pages. Now ‘Weighted Sort’ option shows the bounce rate by the number of visits and it seems bringing out of the real data in the first set of rows.

Here some screenshots that explain you how the option works.

This screenshot shows that all these rows have 1 visit each for a bounce rate of 100% without the ‘Weighted Sort’ option.

This screenshots shows the real number of visits for each row in front of the page by checking the ‘Weighted Sort’ option and also we can sort the data by ascending and descending order by clicking the bounce rate column.
