I'd love to see it. Sounds like they built a good system for not only explaining but testing you to make sure you understood it. Good stuff.

I use GA more than ever now. To tell you the truth, I felt that I know a lot about internet marketing. Tips n Tricks no longer helped. Strategy was way more important. So I needed to come "full circle" in my internet marketing efforts. So now I can see most of my work's performance, whether good or poor, through advanced web analytics. The last thing left before I get my Market Motive Certification is passing the interview. I have to defend my Web Analytics Measurement Model in front of a panel (Avinash and John).
I had to make a custom dashboard for my website. I can email it to you so you can see my end result.
-
Good list. And yes, Schema.org is on my list as well, a little further down.
How was the Analytics Ninja Course?
-
Hey Thomas! How you been? Here are my 3:
- Highly relevant content creation.
- Continue growing my Advanced Web Analytics strategy I learned from Avinash. Oh I forgot to tell you, I took his Analytics Ninja course.
- International SEO to reduce PPC costs.
If I could write a 4th, it would be schema.org.

Guilty of keyword cannibalization. What's the best way to fix it without losing link juice?
Hi guys, I'm new here but I already spent hours reading the forums. I didn't post before because I didn't feel the need to, but today it's different. I don't want to take fixing steps that are not optimal for my website situation. So here's the problem : I am working on an affiliate website that is growing day after day and is already profitable. It is not by any mean a thin affiliate site. It's a french language website with product reviews on it. Right now there is 1 main page (hero page) per review in which I describe the products, put affiliate links, present useful information, etc. These pages have a good word count and I am targeting 1-2 main keywords on them which I consider a good practice. Couple of months ago I decided to add a product page for each one (normally it's 5 products per review) so I added 5 more page per review, targeting product names as new keywords. Problem is that : Product names are very similar to the main keywords (keyword cannibalization problem) There is very little added information on the product page when you compare it to the hero page (too thin) A lot of information is repeated on each of the product pages. I think this is bad. So I decided to keep only the hero pages to keep more link juice, avoid keyword cannibalization, improve page authority and get more content on one single page (only information that was not repeated have been added to hero page). I removed ALL THE LINKS to product pages (from the hero page). So now for my questions : Is it better to keep the product pages in my sitemap or to delete them right away? Is it better to let the product pages die by themselves over time or to 301 redirect all the product pages to hero page to keep link juice? The next question is a bit more complicated. Hope you guys understand what I mean. Considering that product pages are now gone, this will for sure weaken my bounce rate % because only hero page with good/deep information will be accessible to visitors (there is not a lot of internal links in each review, except to other, RELATED reviews). Is setting up goals in google analytics + telling google that it should consider a click on an affiliate link as a NEW PAGE VIEW (like it would act for a click on a link of a product on my own domain) will help for SERPs and SEO?? Or it will just help ME to see a lower bounce rate and setting goals? In other words, is tracking these links and let google see them as new pages clicks will help for the page rankings or not? Because from what I am understanding, a good bounce rate helps for rankings. If the changes made to avoid keyword cannibalization work, when could I potentially see the effects/benefits in the SERPs and trafic?

How to setup affiliate marketing for my website?
I work for an ecommerce company and would like to setup some sort of affiliate marketing similar to Amazon. 1. If someone was referred to our site and they made a purchase we would pay out. 2. If we referred a user to someone else's page and they made a purchase we would get paid. I looked into http://www.commissionfactory.com/ but wasn't sure if that would meet my needs. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Affilliate Marketing for local business? UK
Hi Just a quick question for expert UK affiliates. Would it be worthwhile in setting up a affiliate marketing campaign to get leads for windows, doors and conservatories for my small regional home improvement business? If so what is the best way to approach this, contact the likes of affiliate window? and would they deal with a small regional firm such as mine, or would they only be interested in national firms such as anglian home or everest home improvements? Many Thanks

Launching new static template
My site, ShuttleFinder.net, has been online since 2002. Over the past ten years I have ranked pretty well for "Airport Shuttle" related keywords. Last October (2011), my traffic took a major nose dive (down 60 - 70%). I have been working hard to build up my traffic. First thing I did was hire a graphic designer to build a modern looking template. I decided to stick with a static site (as opposed to a CMS). I've been busy adding content, creating a blog, building social network links, and using tools like SEOmoz to fix title and meta descriptions. I also created a YouTube channel and added two professional commercials promoting ShuttleFinder.net. I haven't migrated my content to the new template yet (that's the next step). See attached screenshot of my newly designed site (this is a screenshot of my new home page). I know I still need to add a lot of fresh content, but will the new templates boost my rankings? watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo shuttlefinder-screenshot.png watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo shuttlefinder-screenshot.png watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo

In search of the perfect SEO affiliate ID'd URL
Hi, I'm building our own affilaite system. I want to make sure I get as much SEO benifit from affiliate links as possible so I am in search of the perfect solution. My thoughts after doing a bit of research are to do the following - using the # as my identifier: 1/. Use an ID like www.mysite.com/#A123 2/. Redirect via 301 these urls to www.mysite.com Any thoughts on this, or other things I should be thinking of with regard so building an affilaite system that has strong SEO benifits? Thanks

Tips for a tough market: Gambling
Yes, that's what I'm working on now. As you might already know / have guessed, gambling is not a really well regarded source of enterntainment amongst... well, amongst 90% of the world popppulitaion, yet there is a huge market for both online casinos and affiliate sites. I believe it to be the second biggest internet market after porn, so, yes, we live in a weird world. Honest linkbuilding is almost impossible, there's really few people that would dare to post an entry on their reputated blog of the "check this out, my friend's new casino site" kind, neither placing on their site a nicely anchored back-link. We also do CMS web-development, but, of course, not a single client has accepted to keep a link to our casino site in their footer. We have tried some link-baiting technics with interesting content by sending it to news aggregators, but most of the feedback we get (after the users read our url) is of the: "gonna downvote the h*** out of you lousy spammer!" kind. Our site doesn't look dodgy at all, we intended to get rid of the sordid look that most affiliate sites sport, and I think that we succeded. (Here it is, if you guys wanna take a look http://www.ilovecasino.es/ ). So here we are, out in the cold, developing our own "satellite sites", working hard in the seo for all of our other sites, giving away free drupal templates that carry an uncloacked link to us in the footer... all the classics. So, any nice feedback on how to get sweet white-hat links in such a complicated market will be strongly appreciated. Hope you can pardon both my rather long question and pretty poor english 🙂
