Does prevent links from being included in Google Webmaster linking sites report?
-
My client has clean links in edit from nytimes.com. The links do not have nofollow tags.
Google Webmaster stopped including links from nytimes.com in the external linking domains report and we don't know why since the URL is still live.
The nytimes.com URL includes this tag in the source code:
Are links on pages with NOARCHIVE still counted in Google Webmaster linking domains reports?

Dear Eben,
When you use "noarchive" you don't permite that google safes you websites cache, but there is nothing to do with links.
More info: http://noarchive.net/meta/

Hi,
The tag you reference only means there will be no cached copy of the site within SERPS
http://www.google.com/intl/en/help/features_list.html#cached
I can only assume their reason for this, is with a site that is about current events, a cached copy might muddle and confuse, and they do not want anyone to see an older version of the site, even if it is only a few days (as I am sure NYtimes.com is crawled quite often)

Search Console Linking
Hey everyone! Quick question; there have been problems in the past with some of our accounts' Search Console integration becoming unlinked from Google Analytics without us knowing about it. I did some digging into Google Analytics to see if there was a way to create an alert for search queries dropping off, but there doesn't seem to be any options for Search Console alerts like there are for other integrations like Google Ads. Has anyone discovered a way to have an alert or some type of notification set up for when a Search Console integration is unlinked in Google Analytics or if search queries drop off significantly? I'd appreciate the help!

How to track in Google Analytics
Hello, I am helping a client track traffic using Google Analytics. We recently just signed an agreement with a publisher and they have given original credit using a canonical link. How can I track this? I believe it is showing up under direct/ none and I don't know to measure the success of our new partnership.

Google Analytics and DNS change
Our new alumni application is going be tested at domain uva.imodules.com . We are going to collect traffic data with a Google analytics account number UA-884652-XX. So going to uva.imodules.com/myPage.html would send its data to Google Analytics with that account number. Then when it is ready for production we are going to just change the domain name of the application and switch the DNS over to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu . So going to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu /myPage.html would send its data to Google Analtics with that SAME account number. Aside from having the testing domain data in the same profile are there any other issues/problems we may run into?

How to find out which URLs are NOT indexed on a site
Is there a way to easily find out which URLs on a store-type site are NOT being indexed in Google? For example, if my sitemap information in Google Webmaster tools shows I have 7342 URLs in my sitemap and 5699 of those indexed, how do I find out what the 1643 non-indexed URLS are? Thanks for any help!
