Weird drop in ranks... google.fr
-
Hello folks,
Before our domain: <cite>www.convertisseurvideo.net</cite>
Keyword: convertisseur video ( convert your video ) is at the first(page) google.fr for this keyword search. Right now, its at second page, really dropped.
And our CTR = 1% . How can we improve the CTR? Any toughts ?
Thanks.

It certainly could be Panda. Your click-through-rate is likely a result of being on page 2. Getting back on page 1 will dramatically help that.
If your CTR was poor before, you probably should adjust your Meta Description and make sure you are targeting the right keywords.

How long ago did it drop? Remembering that Panda was rolled out to the rest of world last week, not sure when France got it exactly

Google Analytics - Adding a sub-domain
Hi I have a google analytics query.
Reporting & Analytics | | Niki_1
I have a main site with a google analytics tag and I have 2 forms that sit on a subdomain with a different GA code. As I would like to measure end to end tracking, I would like the same GA code on the subdomain. What is the best way for me to implement this? Would I need to make some changes to the GA code that sits on the main site or can I add the the GA code from the main site onto the subdomain? Thanks0 -
Are RSS fees tracked by Google Analytics?

What's the problem with this code for Google Analytics
Hello, I'm using this code in my thank you page to track ecommerce sales in GA. The problem that I'm having is that in the google event the _trackPageview doesn't register the proper page but puts the url of the ecommerce website. The transaction is properly tracked. Any ideas of what could be the issue looking at this code? Maybe there could be other code could be causing the problem? Thanks a lot.

Have we been penalised by Google?
Hello guys, Looking for some help here hope someone will be able to point us to the right direction, we have been scratching our heads for months! Basically our Google rankings and organic traffic from Google have dropped signficantly in the last 12 months. At one point we ranked as high as page 3 with the term "holiday lettings". Now we are on page 16, and sometimes not found at all... This has been the case for months now. Curiously, Bing and Yahoo have been much more generous to us, we have been and still consistently rank at No. 2 with the same term. We are in the vacation rental industry - our website is www.alphaholidaylettings.com and most of the sites that rank above us are of much less relevancy, quality and authority. We just could not understand why we would rank so poorly on Google (both US and UK). Organic traffic has also dropped by more than 50% steadily in the last 12 months. One thing we thought might have affected our site is the quality of content. Most content/listings on our site are user generated, and it is not uncommon for users to copy and paste details from an existing listing that they have on another site. Having said that, the same would apply to our competitors too. In this case, might Panda or Penguin have had any negative effects on our seo? We have been adding unique content to the site in the form of a blog and "Holiday Feature" articles. Could the actual design/structure/coding of our pages contribute to our poor rankings too? Any opinions or feedback is much appreciated! Thanks guys, Tom

Google Custom Report Filters are a pain in the arse
Greetings from high weed pollen count Wetherby UK 🙂 Ok ive been having extreme custom reporting filter frustration with Google analytics. My objective was to set up a "custom" google analytics report that detailed: 1. Referral traffic from external sights in one reporting tab
Reporting & Analytics | | Nightwing
2. Visitor generic traffic report including direct, search & referral traffic e.g: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/reporting-tabscopy.jpg But Ive hit the provebial buffers 😞 Initailly i added an advanced filter as shown here: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/custom-reporting-with-filtercopy.jpg but the advanced filters do not stick / save. As soon as you exit the custom report the advanced filter is cleared as shown here: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/custom-reporting-filter-removedcopy.jpg I then added a filter under a specific custom tab but the filter cascades into all the reporting tabs see below: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/custom-reporting-cascading-filterscopy.jpg So my question is please... "How do can you set up filters that effect the data in one reporting tab and does not cascade into the others" Any insights welcome 🙂0 -
Google WM Tools: Canonical URL
Hello, We have a Google Webmaster Tools account under nlpca(dot)com but our preferred URL is www.nlpca(dot)com Do I need to delete the account and start over with the correct domain version, or is there a setting I can set somewhere? The code is in Joomla so I can't set a rel="canonical" in just the home page. Currently we have all home page version redirected to www.nlpca(dot)com Thanks!

Google Analytics Options
A couple of months ago, I read about a new web stats application that is real time but more importantly let's you track user actions on a page (i.e. which buttons were clicked for example). This information would obviously be very helpful in continuing to improve site performance. Anyone have suggestions or know the name of this application? I do not mind paying but am not looking for an enterprise class application.

How to measure number of visits from Google News coming from Google Universal Search (NOT referral coming directly coming from news.google.com) with google analyitcs
I'm running a news site, and I have a problem of accuratly measuring which traffic is REALLY coming from google news. I analyzed a lot of individual articles and I come to the conclusion, that the visits, that come from the google news section in the universal search results are counted as "normal" search engine traffic in google analytics. So if you do a Google search for a topic that includes links from Google news, you don't get an accurate referral count. As an example, if you do a search for "eBay", incorporated into the page 1 search results you may also see Google news results as well.

If someone clicks on that Google news link that appears in Google search, it shows up in Google analytics as a referral from Google search, when it was actually from a Google news referral. I was already checking google analytics and google news help forums and searched SEO blogs for this. But I wasn't able to find a working solution. Can anybody help me out with this problem? Thanks so much, Matthias0
