Google URL Builder Extension showing up as indexed pages.
-
Hello,
I was reviewing my PRO member campaign report. I see that I am getting warnings for too long of URLs. However, these URLs are my website URL with the Google URL builder tracking code that I set up for my marketing campaings. Why are these being indexed? For example: www.website.com/?utm_source=Oct+Newsletter&utm_medium=e....
Thank you,
Kristen

This could be due to the fact that there are some links pointing at that URL. I see that also sometimes when we use the URL builder. You can put that URL in the OSE en look for links and try to change those links.
What you should do is ad the rel=canonical to your pages. Then you do not have the dublicate content problem.
What i do not know is if it is possible to ad a disallow in the robots.txt. Hopefully can someone else comment on that one.
Regards,
Ruud

Google Analytics Options
A couple of months ago, I read about a new web stats application that is real time but more importantly let's you track user actions on a page (i.e. which buttons were clicked for example). This information would obviously be very helpful in continuing to improve site performance. Anyone have suggestions or know the name of this application? I do not mind paying but am not looking for an enterprise class application.
