Creating Meta Tags for a Web Hosting company
-
My client has recently had his site rewritten by a company which supplies a website/hosting/seo service. The client still wants to use me for establishing his site locally and for SEM. My problem is that the code is not accessible to me. They have set up GA tracking which feeds into the reports dashboard. There is no way of actually access the raw data.
When I asked for access to the GA account I got this message from bOline solutions:
"Your SEO consultant will need to create a new GA account and then add the meta tag to the reports tab of your site"
Because I am still very much learning GA I do not know what meta tag they are referring too. I'm therefore stuck as to how to create it. I've started learning about "Google Tag Manager" and am working through "Digital Analytics Fundementals", I've a feeling this is just a question of terminology - can anyone more experience in the subject help me?

Hello Andera
You are quite right. I don't know why I fly into flap when someone says something I don't understand. That is what I'd requested (via the client). But got the aforementioned response back.
Thanks for the cool clear accurate advice. Will try again:)

Hi Catherine!
I would have thought that giving your Google login access to the GA web property/view would be a better solution. If a GA account/property/view already exists, there really should be no reason to create a new account just for the purpose of viewing.
Also, it could be wise to connect the GA account to Google Webmaster Tools if this has not already been done.
Best regards,
Anders

URL Keyword & Meta Title Problem
I was just reviewing my Moz report and came across something I could use advice on. The Keyword is "irish cardigans" I just moved to down a place to #5. I was going to add content to the page and back link a little to get back up on rankings but I noticed it is not all matching up. My Keyword is "irish cardigans" My Url is structured: products/traditional-irish-clothing-arans My metatitle is: Irish Sweaters - Traditional Irish Clothing - Arans & Cardigans The content title on the page heading is: Irish Sweaters and Cardigans. How will I change this to get my ranking better for "Irish Cardigans" The Page is also ranking for "Traditional Irish Clothing and Irish Sweaters" How do I know if I structure it to "Irish Cardigans" I will not loose traffic etc from the other keywords. Thanks

Currently, description is only available if the element is not being optimized (i.e. character count is off/keyword isn't included in the description)

Can you use Google tag manager to manage rich snippets/schema mark up?
Hi,Does anyone know if you can use the new Google tag manager to manage rich snippets? I've seen that there is an HTML section where you can edit HTML that isn't shown on the site - do you think this field could be used to add schema data?Thanks,Karen

OSE shows URLs redirecting to our custom created error page, is this a problem?.
When I check the link metrics for my product pages in OSE, it shows a message saying that the page redirects to our custom error page. This page was recently created to display when there is an error with the website. Do I need to be concerned that OSE is seeing all product pages as redirecting to this error page? Will it affect page authority etc,? I have attached a screen shot of the message that OSE displays for reference. YWbpM.jpg
