The reason you can't see individual referring keywords from which a site is getting traffic anymore is because of Google's policy on not showing the vast majority of these in Analytics. Instead, you see "not provided" listed alongside a lot of organic traffic figures. More about "not provided" here.
Others' answers about using Webmaster Tools, etc. are our best way of analysing the keywords used in organic traffic nowadays.

Hi
I am assuming you mean organic traffic. Paid is a lot easier.
GA this week has re added a SEO report. This tells you the top 1000 keywords driving traffic, but these numbers to me seem to be aggregated.
if you have the cash or access try Hitwise. Very good data and very useful for giving competitor traffic too.
You can also use search metrics that is pretty good software for keywords and rankings.
as mentioned webmaster tools will give you this info so there are quite a few places to get this info. Just depends what you want it for and how detailed.

If they're all in a folder (like /blog/ or /articles/) then I'd just go with a site: query (ex - site:competitorsite.com/blog/ which will give youa list of all the pages in that folder Google knows about. If they have tags etc. you can also remove those qwiht a negative (i.e. site:examplesite.com/blog/ -site:examplesite.com/blog/tags/).
You can also look for common text just on the posts ("written by" for example) and query:
"written by" site:examplesite.com
Cheers !

Hi Morgret , No it's not my site it's my Friends . I do have access to analytics . But when i tried to export the complete keywords i had no option of checking all of the keywords marked ..Only 10-12 of them were marketable .
Thanks

If it's your site head over to Webmaster Tools. The query data will tell you where your clicks are coming from.
If it's a competitor I've found SpyFu to be the best tool for that one. Not perfect, but decent.
And what kind of posts are you talking about? Post on their site? Guest blogs?

Is this your site, or a competitor's site?
You can do a bit more if it's your own site and you have access to analytics, though Google is not allowing the vast majority of keywords through to any analytics reports anymore.

Hi all! We have a client who publishes scholarly research as a highly regarded non-profit. Their Publications aren't being indexed in Google Scholar 50% of the time and when they are, Google is pulling random stuff from a PDF vs. from the html page. Any advice on best practices is enormously appreciated

Houston Company Needs Help (Will Our SEO Work Be Destroyed While Site is Down?, Can Anything be Done?)
I'm a Moz member, mostly just lurk, and love the Moz community. I work at a non profit company that does benchmarking data and helps school districts improve process in education. Our building flooded and our site is currently offline, is there anything we can do to stop/lesson any SEO page rank drop between now and when we are back up? We have worked very hard to get these rankings. I know it is minor compared to all tragedy in Houston, but we have worked hard to get these SEO gains (YEAH MOZ!) and I'd hate to lose them because of Harvey. Any suggestions, assistance appreciated!

Site "Internal" Search Full-Text Indexing vs. Manual Tagging
I’m looking for recommendations on how to power site search in an efficient way. Ideally, I would like to get recommendations on platforms, tools, trends, technology and resources. This discussion does not really refer to SEO or site search optimization. It is more related to the technology used to power site search. I would like to get an idea on the differences between full-text indexing site search and site search that requires manual tagging.

How often do you submit to local search/citation sites?
I recently received a Network Solutions spam/offer email regarding their internet marketing packages. One of the "benefits" they cited was that they submit your information to local search/citation sites once a month, to keep it up-to-date. I don't know about you guys, but my clients' information isn't changing on a frequent basis. I remember when it used to be a tactic to submit regularly to the same citation sites, but that seems like overkill now. Does anyone still do this, or is NS just trying to make their product sound good? Do we need to update citation sites frequently, or is it enough to update when there are actual changes to make?

Why has our site had a huge spike in referral traffic?
Starting last week, our site had a HUGE spike in referral traffic from: search.dnsassist.verizon.net. We have never had a visit from there until last week, and had 12K visits last week so something is happening. The traffic does look normal though, all visits were in the US from 700 cities and pages/visit, avg visit duration and bounce rate are close to site average. There is a few other referral sites that showed up last week as well: wind.search-help.net, uslc.search-help.net, finder.cox.net. All of these sites are low, around 30 to 50 visits a day, but we had not any referrals until last week. I did notice most of these sites state "Explore with Yahoo Search." Just wondering if anyone has every seen this before and wondering what is happening. Thanks for reading. <colgroup><col width="207"></colgroup>

How to optimize a site for search engines in India
I am working on a website that is a manufacturing company selling items to companies in the United States, India and some other countries. I already know what keywords I would target in the US but what about India? In the US we optimize our keywords for the Google search engine but in India what search engine is the biggest. I know http://www.google.co.in/ exists but is that the most powerful (most users) for India? Is there a certain language I do research for keywords or should I stick to English keywords? Also if I rank for a national keyword (no location in the phrase) well in the US should it be similar for India?

Is hosting videos on our other, searchable sites competing with our site-hosted videos?
We use TubeMogul to diversify where we display our videos (in addition to YouTube), but are looking into using a video hosting site so that we can drive traffic back to our own website. Would uploading videos through TubeMogul be essentially like competing with a much more highly-ranked website with the same content? Worth it? Are there any disadvantages to using TubeMogul in general? Thanks!
