How to link Analytics to Webmaster Tools at the profile level?
-
What do you do when you have a few profiles under one property in analytics (for subdomains etc) but you want to link each one of them to webmaster tools? Far as I know, you can only link them at the property level.
Thanks!

Thanks Mike! I was afraid so.

I wouldn't expect UA to be the catalyst for having this behavior changed in the future (based on what I know about how Google separates data amongst property/profile - those concepts aren't changing in UA).
This isn't possible, and I've heard no whispers of it being in the works.

I am really hoping I'm wrong. It stinks that we get to do all of this cross-domain tracking, different configurations and such so we can set up different profiles, but then we can't actually set the profile to the right domain.
Anyone know if this could be a Universal Analytics bonus feature?

I stand corrected i was looking at property not profile

Hi Dan,
From my experiences also, you can't set the association at the profile level. http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1120006
It would be a great feature to add, and if it does exist, I'm all in.

You can connect different properties to different webmaster tools accounts - Just go into each profile in analytics and under search engine optimization link them to different webmaster accounts
- i have one property for the blog and one for the main site

Google Webmaster Tools During GA Transition?
I'm working with a client that is launching a new website. Google Webmaster Tools can just be disconnected, then reconnected to the new Google Analytics property, correct? Without any data loss in Webmaster Tools? Thanks! Becky

Disparity between analytics click and WMT clicks.
There's no correlation between click in the 'search queries' report in WMT and analytics. Analytics organic google traffic is over double what is shown in webmaster tools. When I look at the graphs over the last 30 days in each they look similar its just that analytics is showing more traffic than WMT. I've checked I only have the analytics code once on the page. What could be causing this?

Mobile Site on Google Analytics
Hi mozzers, We just launched a mobile site and I was wondering what are the main steps to follow for gettting your mobile site tracked via GA (m.example.com)? We have a profile for www.example.com GATC: javascript or PHP to install? Should the profile be on a subdomain? What else to consider when implementing a mobile site on GA? Thanks

Google Webmaster Dropped Traffic
Hi Guys, I've recently implemented a new site design with a new url architecture etc.. I set up Google Webmaster tools in early March and went live with the new site on 2nd April. Since the 6th April (4 days after going live) I've notice a drop in impressions from 15,000 - 28,000 per day to 3,500 - 5,500 per day. Now I'm kind of new to this, so after I cleaned up after my initial panic, I checked impressions vs. clicks. Impression are down 44% and clicks 31%. Not bad I thought but then again what if I dropped so far off the radar I never made an impression. 1. So first question: Are the number of impressions of a keyword independant of ranking. So if I rank #3,445,234th will I still see impressions listed but avg. position reflect #3,445,234? So while I was thinking of asking these questions I checked Google Analytics for which I have just over 3 years of metrics. Compared to the past; overall traffic and organic traffic are the same if not 10-20% better. 2. So second: Am I missing something? Its a resort website so easter just ended and you would expect the traffic to match and drop, but such a sudden and dramitic drop in Webmaster Tools impressions does not match Google Analytics. Infact Organic traffic climbed slightly. Can anyone offer any insight? Thanks, Adam
