How to follow up Google search in a Joomla website
-
Hello !
I'm facing a stupid issue but cannot solve it.
Google Analytics can track the seach into a website.
When I try to activate it I need to add some more parameters that I do not know.

Hello
So I made the following setup http://awesomescreenshot.com/0561bnia48
But I do not exactly understand what do you mean by "start big and then cut"
The ideal for me will just be to know what people are looking into my website.
Tks a lot for your help !

Hi,
In this case it would be q = searchword ?
** Yes, this should be your query parameter.
As far as options - it's a case by case on what you want to track - I would start "big" and then cut and edit things based on the feedback you will receive. It's hard to set the search tracking from the start and get it right (by right I mean exactly what you want to know) - you need some time for "trial and error" to spot the perfect setup - this is only to save time and to make sure you don't miss what's important.
Cheers.

Hi,
You just need to perform a search with your joomla search box and look at the url and find the parameter. eg: q=...
Then add the parameter (eg: "q") in the google search track setup.
That should be all.
Hope it helps.

My website is not configured in AMP pages, but it is mobile-friendly.
Hi
Algorithm Updates | | rayabahadur
My website is not configured in AMP pages, but it is mobile-friendly.
Last month, my website was ranked to 10 positions for this keyword (Magento Development Company).
Sometimes it's showing on 25 positions but not in the top 5 positions. Here is my URL (for analysis):
https://www.nevinainfotech.com/magento-development-service/
Would you please explain why my keyword rankings are often not showing in the search listings?
Would you mind letting me know is there anything I need to change?

When Google is going to penalise webpages with autoplaying videos?
Hi, One of the most disgusting experiences while browsing web pages is the auto playing anonymous and highly non relevant ad videos at some corner of the page which buffer mostly and automatically plays. There are familiar websites which been following this activity. I don't think Google has ever rolled out an update to penalise these. Any idea why? Thanks

How often do people use Google Product Search
I was was reading Tom Critchlow's excellent blog on how to rank well for Google Product Search. I'm trying to find out if there are stats on how often people use this feature in Google (since it is not listed on Google's main navigation). I'm working with a customer who has b-2-b products and am trying to determine the value of adjusting his ecommerce pages to appear on Google Product Search.

Retail Searching Patterns
Does anyone have empirical data regarding the pattern in which a consumer shops for an item? I would like to find some information regarding whether consumers search for a product first then find a place that sells it or the opposite. I tend to see the organic SEO net focusing more upon company name visibility and not, say for example, the top ten products they sell. It is not always the case but I see with bigger and bigger companies that they seem to rely more heavily upon company name recognition. Any thoughts?
