How to track search queries with GA
-
Hi there,
I am trying to track my search queries on my site with GA. http://i.imgur.com/Pfkasco.png
Until now, I have to result? Any tips?

Looking at your setup, I would have thought it should work so I'm a little confused.
if you're still having trouble, you can use filters in GA to custom extract the search term from the URL and pass it through to GA.

Hola Amigo,
I think you misunderstood my question. I want to track the search queries within my site with my search bar.
Thanks for the answer!

Hi there!
This is actually a fairly simple process but you will want to use Google Search Console instead of Google Analytics:
The good news is that Google Search Console is **FREE! **
-
Sign into GSC and click search traffic
-
Then click search analytics
-
See the queries button? Select that!
You can use the different configurations on this page to filter your website traffic and find queries that landed users on your pages. Hope you found this helpful!

It's look exactly like this: recherche?controller=search&orderby=position&orderway=desc&search_query=botte&noproduct_text=Il+n%27a+aucun+produit
the keyword is botte

What is the website you need to set up tracking on? Can you give me an example of a URL when someone has searched?

Google keyword planner shows low search volumes
Hello, There are some terms that you'd expect to see a lot of results. In fact, in the old days of Keyword Tool, I recall seeing thousands of results for a keyword like "anderson cooper". Today, I see a small amount as a monthly average. Am I doing something wrong? All I really want to do is find search volumes on particular keywords either globally or local to a country. And it's proving soo hard! 😞 Screen_Shot_2013_11_26_at_11_13_20_PM.png

How to best figure out synonymous search phrases
I'm curious about synonymous key phrases and competitive key term analysis. I have a few methods for conducting research to find what phrases Google considers synonymous but they are very time consuming. What are some ways to figure this out? An example would be livestock and cattle. Are there any good ways to figure out user intent related key phrases? For example in our niche if someone is looking to purchase something Google often delivers pages with title tags that include the term supplies. Would it be advantageous to optimize for these types of key phrases if the competition is less or should I assume that Google groups exact match and synonym and intent match together when calculating relevancy. Eg I can choose to target livestock or cattle on page. Livestock gets a quarter the search volume cattle gets but has half the competition. Will I be competing against the cattle sites too? If so should I just bite the bullet and target cattle?

Google Instant Search? REALLY?! Why is this the result???
First, this is one I thought I would never ask, but: Could this be true? I had noticed my MacBook Pro was eating some power and wanted to see if I could optimize my settings so to take advantage what battery life was available. (I swear that is the truth). So, I am at a Starbucks on someone and typed into Google search bar the following query - Best way to conserve - and, received the following instant search results before I could type - power on a macbook pro I am not putting it here as I want you to ask yourself what came up. I have attached a screenshot. My colleague arrived and without prompting she retried and got the same. So I am curious: Do you get the same result and why do you think that result is so predominant? This is funny. efuts.png

How do you know if you have been penalized by search engines?
How do you know if you have been penalized by search engines? I logged into my Google and Bing webmaster accounts and all looks ok, but in the last 30 days, my organic traffic has decreased 33%. My traffic usually steadily increases and if there is ever a decrease, it's usually very small.

Can we rank as a related search query on a competitor's brand keyword?
One of my clients wanted to know whether it's possible for him to rank as one of the related pages on Google for a brand name of a competitor. I honestly don't know whether it's possible so any ideas whether it's possible and if so, ideas on what can be done is greatly welcome. Thank you in advance. 🙂
