Google Webmaster. Backlinks
-
GWMT only shows that there are 3 domains pointing to a site of mine. I'm looking under "Links to site".
But this can't be true because the site is pretty old and I know there are hundreds of domains that point to this one.
What would explain this discrepancy? And is there some other free tool that will show all the backlinks?
I've used Opensite explorer but that tool isn't close to comprehensive as GWMT usually is (based on other sites I've analyzed)
-
Will GWMT still disavow a list of links even if those links are not listed under GWMT's "links to site" section? I had to use OSE and Bing Webmaster to find the bad backlinks to my site.
Also, didn't Bing had its own disavow tool as well? I don't see it now

webmaster tools did a clean up on links they show
they used to show a lot more but now they lowered the number of links so that's one reason
Another reason is that the links is probably very old. Ive seen very old links on inactive sites disappear from GWT.
If you use majestic seo, you can see those links in historic mode. In fresh mode, you wont. It's almost the same logic.

Oooh, yes
This is a good question. I am having the exact same issue with my website. In OSE it only shows that we have like 3 linking root domains but we have more under followed back links.
I Just found this out in OSE
"Although we do not currently display a count of total links for this filter set, you can still view all the links by paginating or downloading a CSV (up to 25 links per domain)."
I am curious about what someone more knowledge than myself has to say. What is GWMT & what are your issues with OSE. It takes a little time to get use to but I understand it pretty well.

Localhost:4444 Showing Up in Google Analytics
Hello All, Lately in my Google Analytics account I have noticed a referral source labelled: localhost:4444 The number of visits is really high from this source, but I have no idea (no clue!) what it actually means. Can anyone shed some light on what this is about? Should I be creating some sort of filter to screen out this as a referral source (assuming it is not legitimate)? Many thanks in advance. Cheers!

301 redirect visible on Google.
Hello, This is a strange one for me. We have 301 redirected our .com domain to the .co.uk domain. The strange thing is that if you gogole the .com domain (theloanengine.com) there is a result with the website description. If you click on the result you are redirected tot he website homepage. One other thing: I've discovered this 301 issue because Google Analytics started to show me a few days ago referrals from the .com domain. I don't know if these things are connected. Cornel

Editing Google Analytics eCommerce Javascript for Volusion
Does anyone know how to edit the ecommerce javascript with Volusion dynamic variables? I thought I did it correctly but none of the information got recorded in GA. It recorded that there was a transaction made but not info on the purchase price, order #, etc. This is the current code I am using: NOTE: In Volusions customer support center they provided this information: Where Order-Specific Information is Generated Order-specific information can be generated by JavaScript on the OrderFinished.asp page within Volusion. On this page, two JavaScript arrays will be initialized that advanced users may need to be aware of. The arrays and their contents are as follow:
Reporting & Analytics | | jhooley
Order Array Contents Order[0] = Order ID
Order[1] = Unused
Order[2] = Payment Amount
Order[3] = Affiliate Commisionable Value
Order[4] = Sales Tax
Order[5] = Total Shipping Cost
Order[6] = Billing City
Order[7] = Billing State
Order[8] = Billing Country OrderDetails Array Contents OrderDetails[X][0] = Order ID
OrderDetails[X][1] = Order Detail ID
OrderDetails[X][2] = Product Code
OrderDetails[X][3] = Product Name
OrderDetails[X][4] = (unused)
OrderDetails[X][5] = Product Price
OrderDetails[X][6] = Quantity Note that in the above example, X refers to a line item number (beginning from zero). Note that there can be multiple Order Details arrays - one for each item contained within an order. I'm a newbie at Analytics installation and could really use any help. Thanks!1 -
Yahoo Webmaster Tools still work?
Now that Yahoo is using Bing's search results, do we still need to monitor and use Yahoo's Webmaster's Tools - or do we stick to using the Bing Webmaster Tools?
