Tracking Scroll Depth with jQuery and Google Analytics

Tracking scroll depth is interesting, but percentage isn't all that helpful. The number of comments on a blog post will mess with the data, for example (you won't be able to reliably compare Post A to Post B).<p>What might make more sense is tracking who scrolled down to the end of the .blog-post div, to the end of the .comments div, and to the end of the footer. Or whatever makes sense for the content on your page(s).

nice work. this has become a popular topic in GA circles with single page sites becoming popular and single page visitors increasingly entering directly on to a blog post and leaving and GA showing them as a bounced visitor.<p>Some other solutions I like <a href="http://www.savio.no/blogg/a/114/tracking-content-scrollers-scanners-og-readers-in-google-analytics" rel="nofollow">http://www.savio.no/blogg/a/114/tracking-content-scrollers-s...</a><p><a href="http://cutroni.com/blog/2012/02/21/advanced-content-tracking-with-google-analytics-part-1/" rel="nofollow">http://cutroni.com/blog/2012/02/21/advanced-content-tracking...</a>

The number of responses here talking about how cool this is disturbs me.<p>Yet another reason to use ScriptNo (Chrome).

Very cool. Makes me wonder, what other valuable visitor metrics am I missing out on?

What can be done about Noscript users in that regard? Image bugs?

How does this work with pages with infinite scroll?
