How to track seo campaign success fully?
-
Hi All,
What are the best ways to track a seo campaign successfully, other or including Google Analytic?
-
Search metrics is very good - both for your own site / sites and also to have a clear view on the competition.
Search metrics in combination with the seomoz tool set and google analytics is a "deadly" ombination

Thanks eyepaq for the tools. However we are already using Raven, Moz and obviously WMT but its nice to know about the search metrics.
-
Main Key points success indicator in my opinion are:
-
goals and conversions (you can track those with google analytics)
-
rankings for keywords that you track and monitor (Web master tools, seomoz, raven, search metrics)
-
visibility in search (search metrics, xovi, sistrix.com)
Hope it helps.

It depends on how you define success? There are a variety of tools out there that use the Google AP. One that we are particular fond of is RavenTools, but for some companies Google Analytics can simply do it all.
Google Analytics has a variety of tools that can help you out, including:
- Setting Goals
- Setting Ecommerce Funnels,
- Adwords Support
- Tracking User Navigation.
- Custom Link Creator
You name it and Analytics will probably do it. So again, it depends on what your goal is with your SEO campaign. If it's to increase site traffic, maybe Analytics can help you or if you're simply monitoring the growth of keywords we would suggest something like Raventools.

What To Focus On SEO / Link Building for this campaign to rank again..
Hi All; I recently joined Moz and I am really starting to learn a lot here. I am still finding it difficult to figure out what to focus on the most to improve my rankings (although I do have some page 1 ranks) I have one strong competitor who has a SOLID spot in the top 5 of google for the past few years for the keyword I would like to be ranked for again. (as they have always been a competitor of mine either 1 spot above or 1 spot below). then i fell off google in January and finally made it back to page 1. But their links are thousands higher than mine. What parts of my SEO Link Building should I focus on the MOST to improve my ranking to move up a few spots? Followed links vs No Followed Links Followed Linking Root Domains vs NoFollowed Linking Root Domain Any help would so greatly be appreciated; also please explain why you would focus on that part of my campaign so I can better understand as well. Thanks again

SEO's done, 301s in place, old site STILL outranks new site. What to do?
Since Sep 2010 I have had a site up with minimal SEO optimization (www.chrisbrushmusic.com). Oct 29, 2012, I launched a new site on a new domain (www.chrisbrushdrums.com) with more content and tons of SEO work behind it. The content of the new site is significantly different from the old site, and I wish to keep the old site around. I have 301's in place for specific URLs on the old site that point to the new site. I have submitted xml sitemaps for the new site. As of now, the old site still outranks the new site (i.e. Google search for "nashville session drummer" and my old site is #9 - my new site is nowhere). What should I do? Thanks.

I must be tripping. How is this site ranking for the term "SEO Company"??????
When I go to Google non-custom search results and search the term: seo company The website "greencowseo.com" is ranked 3rd. OpenSiteSearch shows nothing. And get this... the domain was registered 14 days ago by somebody in Egypt. Do I need to quit my SEO Moz membership and hire this guy? 🙂

Free SEO tools appearing in SERPS for a site
Hi there, I've just taken over a site and it doesn't have a huge amount of shelfspace on the SERPs for it's brand name. Looking at the results that are there are a lot of free SEO tools that are coming up. They haven't had an SEO before so it's not coming from their side. There's such a lot of them I was wondering if anyone had come across this before - is it simply a competitor looking at the seo, could it be one of the seo analytics packages using free sites or is there anything else to be aware of. I can start knocking the sites down the SERPs but just wondering if anyone has a good solution for this. thanks Shiv
