Is there such tool?
-
Morning Moz!
Is there such tool, to view if your site has Google Analytics script by page? (I mean page by page, so to crawl an entire site)
It's a 500+ page website, so i'm trying to avoid viewing source of each individual page.
Thank you!

Thanks Dirk, I stand corrected.
I have used the custom filters to search for other things (videos on page, tracking pixels, etc. ) I second your approach.

Hi
What you see is the data Screaming Frog is pulling in using the API from Analytics - it's not to check if Analytics code is present on all the pages.

It's not installed by default - however it's quite easy to check if analytics is present. Just use a custom filter Configuration > Custom > Search
If you use "plain" Analytics (not via the Tag manager) just put in two filters:
Filter 1 - contains UA-xxxxxxx
Filter 2 - Does not contain UA-xxxxxxOnce crawled - you can see the results in the "Custom Tab".
(a step by step can be found here: http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/screaming-frog-to-verify-google-analytics/ The tool you mentioned will probably do a good job - but personally I prefer to limit the tools I use to a minimum.

Weird, I am looking at it right now during a call and can see it fine.
In SF pro in the right-hand bar under overview close to the bottom is a folder called Analytics.

I use SF pro, but saw nothing regarding whether or not analytics is installed. (Can't log in to main analytics, as don't have access)
The GAchecker link I mentioned worked a treat.

Screaming frog (http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/) is a great crawler and will check for Analytics installed by default, as well as a bunch of additional info. I believe the free version will search up to 500 pages.

Found this just after I posted.
I'll leave link, in case anybody searches the same question.

Increase in 404 errors in Webmaster Tools
We have recently updated our website www.cooke.co.uk and twice webmaster tools have reported an increase in 404 errors. However, these errors are not for normal pages, they are things like http://www.cooke.co.uk/?post_type=crown_enquiry&p=1045 I have used the redirection tool in WordPress to redirect all these links to the homepage but does anyone know why this is happening since it is the second time I had to do it. Thanks.

What are some good SERP visibility tools?
With keyword data from Google on its way out, we're losing our ability to discover what keywords a website is ranking for (you can do ranking checks, but only if you already know what keywords the site is ranking for). What are some good SERP visibility tools? (i.e. you enter the domain name, and the tool lists which keywords the site ranks for organically, etc.) I know SpyFu offers this, but they seem to be PPC focused and perhaps not very accurate. I know other companies offer it, but I'm blanking on which ones.

Pairing webmaster tools with analytics - user access
If you pair webmaster tools with an analytics account does this auto allow access for any of the authorised analytics users or do they have to be granted access individually from within GWT ? cheers dan

Can you link several sites together in Google Webmaster Tools?
I have a client saying that there is a way to link 3 separate websites (A website for each department of a company) in Google Webmaster tools to tell Google it's basically one site but really its 3. Or to tell Google it's the same company and all the sites are one. I have never heard of this & I don't see the point in making 3 separate small sites & "linking" them as one in Webmaster tools. Is there in fact a way? Am I out to lunch on what they might be referring to? I am recommending they create one larger authority site with a page on each department & earn links for each department page & provide informative unique content for each page. Thoughts? Thanks for the help!

Interpreting Keyword Difficulty Tool results
I have been running various reports using the Keyword Difficulty tool. The columns are color coded - are there one set of signals that are more important than others? I am trying to analylze why we are ranking where we are and where our competitors are weak enough to overcome in a short term. I cannot seem to find a formula for the top indicatators for moving up in ranking. One of my sites in ranking number 5 but is neck and neck with the number one site for results. The other site is number 6 for the same term but has virtually no strength in the data like links, mozrank, trust, Social, etc...The sites 7-10 are much stronger on data. Maybe since they are from the same C block that helps? Any advice or experience would be helpful.

Google Keyword Tool versus Google Analytics
Hi I'm trying to establish a methodology to best show the gap between potential and realised organic keyword traffic. To obtain potential keyword traffic I'm using the Google Adwords keyword tool to derive local monthly search volumes for exact keyword matches. To get the realised data I'm using Google Analytics. However, to get the I'm confused as to which is the best way of getting a comparable metric from Google Analytics (GA). I was using custom reports and the 'organic searches' metric. However, this provides different values to a standard report selecting non-paid search in the default advanced segments. What is the best report/metric in GA to use for both organic and paid search volumes that would be comparable to the Google Adwords keyword tool. Thanks Neil
