Is there such tool?
-
Morning Moz!
Is there such tool, to view if your site has Google Analytics script by page? (I mean page by page, so to crawl an entire site)
It's a 500+ page website, so i'm trying to avoid viewing source of each individual page.
Thank you!

Thanks Dirk, I stand corrected.
I have used the custom filters to search for other things (videos on page, tracking pixels, etc. ) I second your approach.

Hi
What you see is the data Screaming Frog is pulling in using the API from Analytics - it's not to check if Analytics code is present on all the pages.

It's not installed by default - however it's quite easy to check if analytics is present. Just use a custom filter Configuration > Custom > Search
If you use "plain" Analytics (not via the Tag manager) just put in two filters:
Filter 1 - contains UA-xxxxxxx
Filter 2 - Does not contain UA-xxxxxxOnce crawled - you can see the results in the "Custom Tab".
(a step by step can be found here: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/screaming-frog-to-verify-google-analytics/ The tool you mentioned will probably do a good job - but personally I prefer to limit the tools I use to a minimum.

Weird, I am looking at it right now during a call and can see it fine.
In SF pro in the right-hand bar under overview close to the bottom is a folder called Analytics.

I use SF pro, but saw nothing regarding whether or not analytics is installed. (Can't log in to main analytics, as don't have access)
The GAchecker link I mentioned worked a treat.

Screaming frog (http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/) is a great crawler and will check for Analytics installed by default, as well as a bunch of additional info. I believe the free version will search up to 500 pages.

Found this just after I posted.
I'll leave link, in case anybody searches the same question.

How can I remove parameters from the GSC URL blocking tool?
Hello Mozzers My client's previous SEO company went ahead and blindly blocked a number of parameters using the GSC URL blocking tool. This has now caused Google to stop crawling many pages on my client's website and I am not sure how to remove these blocked parameters so that they can be crawled and reindexed by Google. The crawl setting is set to "Let Google bot decide" but still there has been a drop in the number of pages being crawled. Can someone please share their experience and help me delete these blocked parameters from GSC's URL blocking tool. Thank you Mozzers!

Have You Ever Gotten False or Odd Notifications from Google Webmaster Tools?
I just got an email for one of my client websites from Google Webmaster Tools letting me know that the Google Bot could not access the website? The notification indicated that there may be a robots.txt issue that prevented crawling, but that they would try something to crawl it again. In this situation, we had just created a new Webmaster Tools account for the client, and there were (are) two GWT accounts now for the website, one that is incorrectly set to http://clientwebsite.com and the other that is set to www.clientwebsite.com. One of them reports zero errors, and the other reports an odd crawl error. Anyone encountered this type of thing before?

Why Webmasters Tools verification meta tags change??
Why do these keep changing for sites that I have verfied over and over and over and over? About a month goes by and the meta code has changed and the site is unverified again. Seems like a trick to force you into logging into Webmaster Tools all the time. What gives???

Fb, twitter, etc stats tool?
I once saw a tool (from Distilled, I think?) where you would input your blog post or page URL, and it would give you a table showing how many Facebook likes, Tweets, etc that page has gotten. Does anyone have the URL for this or a similar tool?

Google WM Tools: Canonical URL
Hello, We have a Google Webmaster Tools account under nlpca(dot)com but our preferred URL is www.nlpca(dot)com Do I need to delete the account and start over with the correct domain version, or is there a setting I can set somewhere? The code is in Joomla so I can't set a rel="canonical" in just the home page. Currently we have all home page version redirected to www.nlpca(dot)com Thanks!

WMT tools - setting parameter for redirected URLs
Hi everybody. One of our clients has recently moved from one ecommerce platform to another. During the move, a huge number of URLs have been tidied up to remove dynamic parameters. The old URLs have been redirected to the new, tidy ones. My question is whether it's worth telling Google in the WMT URL parameters section not to index the parameters of the old URLs. Will this affect the redirects in any way? Thanks!
