Google Search Analytics How to Get Search Keywords for a Page?
-
How do I get the keywords coming into a page on the new Google Webmaster Tools Search Analytics?
Used to be there in the old version. You would just view your most popular urls and when you expanded the urls you would see the terms driving the traffic. How do I see the most popular keyword queries for a given page in the new tool? Alternatively can I still use the old tool somehow?

Perfect thank you all. Bryan you were 90% there, just have to click back to Queries after you go to pages. Thanks all!

Hope you already got this solved. If not, maybe this post will help you out: http://searchengineland.com/find-queries-per-url-using-search-analytics-report-google-search-console-gsc-231198

Hi Keith:
1. Go to Search Console -> Search Traffic -> Search Analytics
By default it should have a check mark on Clicks and QUERIES selected, you'll see total clicks, graph and then all your keywords listed below.2. CLICK Pages radio button
By default you will see Total Clicks, Graph, then list of pages3. Click the _No Filter_arrow underneath pages
You'll get a pop up where you can input a url
Select URL is then Input the URL of your popular page then click Filter ButtonAt this point you will see a Total clicks and graph, but no queries
4. Click on the QUERIES radio button now and there you go!
You will then see total clicks, Graph, and your queries
You can then check mark Clicks, Impressions, CTR, and Position to show you all those metrics for that page and those queries.To do a different page switch out the pages filter and repeat.
With all of Google's want for web masters to focus on UX.... They need a couple of UI guys to help them with work flows for these tools. So annoying. But hope that helps.

Normally at the bottom of the graph you see a message stating "Table omitted as it contains no additional information. Select Queries to see the top queries for the current results"
Once you have set the filter on the page you'll have to click on "Queries" again to see the queries that correspond with the page you have put in the filter.
Google does everything to make our live easier...

Hmmm. I'm not sure what the issue may be, but when I do this, I'm getting the information you're asking for by doing this on my property. Hopefully someone else can cue you in.

Hi!
I did this:
Choose the page you want to see the keywords for by clicking the arrow by "Pages" and filtering by that page. Then, viola!
However all I see when I click on the page is a "total clicks" number and a graph, no data on the actual keyword queries that people searched for and landed on our page. Old version used to show this. Please advise on how to see for the page on the new version?

While in GSC, select the property you want to check out. Then, select Search Analytics. Within there, at the top of the graph, you'll see "Queries", "Pages", etc. Choose the page you want to see the keywords for by clicking the arrow by "Pages" and filtering by that page. Then, viola!
As for your second question, I doubt it. GSC replaces GWT. You'll have to get used to the new.

Getting Google to index our sitemap
Hi, We have a sitemap on AWS that is retrievable via a url that looks like ours http://sitemap.shipindex.org/sitemap.xml. We have notified Google it exists and it found our 700k urls (we are a database of ship citations with unique urls). However, it will not index them. It has been weeks and nothing. The weird part is that it did do some of them before, it said so, about 26k. Then it said 0. Now that I have redone the sitemap, I can't get google to look at it and I have no idea why. This is really important to us, as we want not just general keywords to find our front page, but we also want specific ship names to show links to us in results. Does anyone have any clues as to how to get Google's attention and index our sitemap? Or even just crawl more of our site? It has done 35k pages crawling, but stopped.

Trying to get Google to stop indexing an old site!
Howdy, I have a small dilemma. We built a new site for a client, but the old site is still ranking/indexed and we can't seem to get rid of it. We setup a 301 from the old site to the new one, as we have done many times before, but even though the old site is no longer live and the hosting package has been cancelled, the old site is still indexed. (The new site is at a completely different host.) We never had access to the old site, so we weren't able to request URL removal through GSC. Any guidance on how to get rid of the old site would be very appreciated. BTW, it's been about 60 days since we took these steps. Thanks, Kirk

Google Search Console Site Property Questions
I have a few questions regarding Google Search Console. Google Search Console tells you to add all versions of your website https, http, www, and non-www. 1.) Do I than add ALL the information for ALL versions? Sitemaps, preferred site, etc.? 2.) If yes, when I add sitemaps to each version, do I add the sitemap url of the site version I'm on or my preferred version? - For instance when adding a sitemap to a non-www version of the site, do I use the non-www version of the sitemap? Or since I prefer a https://www.domain.com/sitemap.xml do I use it there? 3.) When adding my preferred site (www or non-www) do I use my preferred site on all site versions? (https, http, www, and non-www) Thanks in advance. Answers vary throughout Google!

How do we preserve images in google search after CMS migration?
Hi Folks we are about to migrate to a new CMS (bigcommerce/volusion type of thing) are are advised that we will preserve our google love for our old URLS with 301 re-directs. OK but what about images that show in search (we have a lot of our images show up high in relevant google image search) will this method work the same or should we do something else to keep the image benefits? many thanks Tom

"No index" page still shows in search results and paginated pages shows page 2 in results
I have "no index, follow" on some pages, which I set 2 weeks ago. Today I see one of these pages showing in Google Search Results. I am using rel=next prev on pages, yet Page 2 of a string of pages showed up in results before Page 1. What could be the issue?

What are the different tactics for getting ranked/ included in Google finance searches such as http://www.google.com/finance/company_news?q=NASDAQ:ADBE
I don't know what ranking factors they are using for this feed. The results vary greatly from a search done at google.com or google.com/news and google.com/finance I'm working with a website that regularly publishes finance-related news and currently gets traffic from google finance. I'm wondering what we can do to optimize our news articles to possibly show more prominently or more often. Thanks

Google replacing subpages in index with home page?
Hi! I run a backlink building company. Recently, we had a customer who had us build targeted backlinks to certain subpages on his site. Then something really bizarre happened...all of a sudden, their subpages that were indexed in Google (the ones we were building links to) disappeared from the index, to be replaced with their home page. They haven't lost their rank, per se--it's just now their home page instead of their subpages. At this point, we are tracking literally thousands of keywords for our link building customers, and we've never run into this issue before. Have you ever run into it? If so, what's the best way to handle it from an SEO company perspective? They have a sitemap.xml and their GWT account reports no crawl errors, so it doesn't seem to be a site issue.
