How can I capture search terms and forward it along with my contact form?
-
I would like to be able to capture the keywords when someone comes to my site with a PPC click or a keyword search. I can't imagine that this is an uncommon request, but I can't find the tools that would let me do that, or heck something that will help me build it myself.
What is everyone using to capture search information from people who contact you?
-
Here's some PHP code to accomplish this:
-
I've always had the luxury of assigning implementation of keyword capture to programmers, and they've always been able to implement the functionality by pulling that referrer string, parsing it out, and placing it into a hidden form field. If anyone knows of a plug-in I'd like to test it, but a developer should be able to do this for you pretty quickly.

I will definitely take a look.
We got an email the other day from http://infusionextreme.com/infusion-tracker/
It looked like it did everything we wanted, but to use it requires a subscription to infusionsoft which is $200 a month...needless to say we moved on.

I can't give you anything definite, but I do the fuzzy seo wordpress plugin on one of our sites, and that pulls the keywords out of the referrer for use on the site. You can find it here:
I'm not a coder by any means but it looks like the guts of the program is in the .inc file once you've installed the plugin.
Wish I could help more but it's all I've got.
EDIT: If anyone is using wordpress it's quite a nice plugin definitely worth taking a look at.

I am not aware of a tool that will email or send you the keyword or phrase that was used to find your site when they send a message to you via the contact form but Google Analytics (or any decent analytics package) should provide you with the terms used to locate your site and specific pages.

Strange - Search Console page indexing "../Detected" as 404
Anyone seen this lately? All of a sudden Google Search Console is insisting in Page indexing that there is a 404 for a page that has never existed on our client's site: https://........com.au/Detected We've noticed this across a number of sites, precisely in this way with a capitalised "/Detected" To me it looks like something spammy is being submitted to the SERPs (somehow) and Google is trying to index that and then getting a 404. Naturally MOZ isn't picking it up, cause the page simply never existed - it's just happening in Search Console 2afc7e35-71e4-4e25-80a3-690bf10776a7.png It comes and it goes in the 404 alerts in Console and is really annoying. I reckon it started happening late 2022.

Linked my adwords account to GA and vice versa and still paid search is getting recorded into organic traffic??
Hi Mozzers, I have linked properly my adwords account to GA and vice versa and somehow I can see 3/4 of this paid traffic recorded to organic search. The most confusing part is that I can see 1/4 of the paid traffic under the "paid" metric. At this point I don't know really what should I do? Thank you guys in advance!

My Domain Authority Dropped Dramatically..Can Someone Tell Me Why??
Over the last month or so my Domain Authority, my MozRank and MozTrust have all dropped off considerably. I haven't been doing anything different. So I don't know where to turn or what to do to get it back to where it was. The effects are horrible on my SEO. Can anyone out there tell me what it is I can do to why they dropped? Or more importantly, how can I improve it?
