b. Use a Search and Replace custom filter on the Request URI field where Search string is "/index" and Replace string is "/home"

Answer 1

To have the homepage listed as "/home" in an analytics pages report, create a Search and Replace custom filter on the Request URI field, where the default homepage suffix or "/index" is replaced with "/home".

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the homepage of your site appear as "/home" in your pages report, you would need to use a Search and Replace custom filter on the Request URI field in your analytics tool. Assuming the homepage URL by default ends with "/" or "/index", the filter settings should be as follows:

• Search String: "/$" or "/index"
• Replace String: "/home"

This will replace the default homepage extension or "/index" with "/home" in your pages report, effectively renaming the URI in analytics to match your preference.
