Google Analtyics Changes?
-
Did anyone else's google analtyics numbers jump up this month?
Our unique visitors increased some, but our pageviews tripled and our bounces dropped significantly.
We have been working to optimize the sites and did have a huge drop in errors in our campaign reports.

Hi Keri,
Thank you for asking, I missed this. We asked someone to take a look, and there were two instances of the G/A code installed.
Thanks again for checking back.

Hi Steve,
How are your GA numbers doing now? Did you figure out what was causing the jump? Have they stayed high, or come back down? If you give us an update, we can try to help troubleshoot this for you a bit more.
-
what's the reasons about it? Our pageviews dropped but i don't catch the key!
-
Yeah, I also didnt saw any huge diferences in Google Analytics data.
Seems that you work on the site is working on!
-
We got bounce rates down to 0% on a client's site. (Pages/Visit increased dramatically too)
Super Excited!!!!
Until we discovered that we had two copies of Analytics code in there.

I had a big jump in page views and a big decrease in bounce rate a few months back. Happened right at the same time that I accidentally installed two copies of Google Analytics on my site. It's one thing to check for, just in case.

Hi Steve,
I haven't seen anything that dramatic in our GA accounts.
Sounds like your just doing well!
This is probably unrelated but we did notice a higher level of direct traffic than expected at the beginning of the year for many of our accounts.

Vanity URLs are being indexed in Google
We are currently using vanity URLs to track offline marketing, the vanity URL is structured as www.clientdomain.com/publication, this URL then is 302 redirected to the actual URL on the website not a custom landing page. The resulting redirected URL looks like: www.clientdomain.com/xyzpage?utm_source=print&utm_medium=print&utm_campaign=printcampaign. We have started to notice that some of the vanity URLs are being indexed in Google search. To prevent this from happening should we be using a 301 redirect instead of a 302 and will the Google index ignore the utm parameters in the URL that is being 301 redirect to? If not, any suggestions on how to handle? Thanks,

Google + and Google Knoladge Graph
I am trying to get things to match up for the company brand websearch and the Google + page and we have had it for years now The knowledge graph on Google is showing the map, address and name (shown in attached image), but is not linked to a G+ page, as when i click the "Are you the business owner?" its is trying to make me create a new G+ business page. Anyone have any ideas on this? Also does the wiki name have to be exact for it to show? As for phone number would that be coming from the DNS record as that is nowhere in the markup rich snippet or normal markup Thanks in advance LC9cWdG

When will all of Google Maps be the same again?
As many of you are aware that the pigeon update was only applied to the new Google maps resulting in very different search results for Google local business. When you search for a business on old Google maps then you get totally different results vs the new Google maps. Some businesses totally disappeared completely from the search results. I have done my research and found out that it's because the new Algo was only applied to the new maps. Also new algo does not apply to other countries. Well the reason I posted this topic is because I have noticed that all the new Google Business listings I am verifying for my clients are all being put under the old Google maps and not the new ones. They come up fine when searching from old maps but not the new ones. I understand Google has not rolled out the pigeon on all data centers but why? Will Google eventually roll out the update to old maps? Since Google is adding businesses to old google maps then what's the point of even adding new listings?

Changes to title and description not appearing in Google search...
www.heatwavemedia.com Search terms: san francisco video production, san francisco video production services In Google search site appears as "Heartwave Media: San Francisco Video Production Services" but I'm sure I've never used a colon in all my iterations of the title... Instead it reads "San Francisco Video Production Services | Heartwave Media" with the description "A San Francisco video production company specializing in creative corporate and commercial video services." But that's not coming up either... I'm on Wordpress and am using All in One SEO if that helps... Thoughts?

Quality analytics without Google?
I'm trying to find a program or a site that will give me quality traffic data. If I'm going into a presentation or simply a round one meeting I like to prepare a 1 pager with info I've found. Without authentication access to their Google Analytics I feel like I'm a step behind. Any Help would be greatly appreciated. -JoeGrrrcia
