| New Content Navigation & Site Search Features |
 | Site Search report available with
Goals, eCommerce and AdSense
You can now connect searches on your sites with your KPIs through goals, eCommerce and AdSense revenue. As an example, a brand selling multiple products can now see how conversions are affected by site searches for specific items, e.g. 'mens shoes' or 'handbags'. | |
Breadcrumbs improvements improve usability
To make navigation more intuitive and easier we've added the ability to change a dimension along the breadcrumb path. In addition to navigating back in one direction, you can now navigate sideways on all reports. |  | |
 | In-Page Analytics tab added to the Pages report
You can now directly launch In-Page on the selected page in focus. This saves the need to navigate to the In-Page reports. You can move back and forth between the Pages, Navigation Summary, and In-Page tabs on the selected drill-down and gather insights much easier than before. | |
