How can i track performance metrics for a group of subdirectories.
I.e
domain.com/de/en_uk
domain.com/de/de_de
domain.com/at/en_uk
domain.com/at/de_de -
@Miradoro what would you like to track?
If you have Google Search Console set up for that domain it should be fairly easy to export data on clicks, impressions, CTR and average position.
You could then filter this data by subfolder and create visualisations like graphs if you needed.
You could see a quick overview of what's happening on each subfolder by adding a filter in GSC. Navigate to Performance > Search results > new > page... then filter by 'URLs containing' /de/en_uk
On a related note, I assume from these subfolders that you're targeting English and German speakers in Germany and Austria?
Have you got hreflang tags set up correctly? If not, this would be highly recommended to help avoid content duplication issues.
Cheers,

How can i track performance metrics for a group of subdirectories
There are a few ways to track SEO performance metrics for a group of subdirectories:
Use a website analytics tool: Google Analytics is a popular choice and it can be configured to track specific subdirectories. By creating a custom segment or filter, you can monitor the traffic and behavior of users on the subdirectories.
Use a rank tracking tool: There are many tools available that allow you to track the search engine rankings of specific pages or subdirectories. This can help you see how your subdirectories are performing in the search results over time.
Use a backlink analysis tool: This tools can be used to track the number of backlinks pointing to specific subdirectories. This can give you an idea of the authority and popularity of the subdirectories.
Track the performance of specific landing pages: By monitoring the performance of specific landing pages within the subdirectories, you can gain insight into how well the subdirectories are performing in terms of conversion rate, bounce rate, and other metrics.
Use Google Search Console: GSC allow you to track your website's performance in Google Search, you can see which pages are getting impressions and clicks, track your website's average position, and monitor your website's click-through rate.
All of these tools will give you different insights, so it's a good idea to use a combination of them to get a comprehensive view of your subdirectories' performance.

What are the SEO ramifications of domain redirection?
Hi Moz Community! I was just trying to set up our global site and got this message: "Redirect detected
SEO Tactics | | Padmagandhini
We have detected that the domain bhaktimarga.org redirects to prodfront-coli.bhaktimarga.mediactive-network.net. We do not recommend tracking a redirect URL. Would you like to track prodfront-coli.bhaktimarga.mediactive-network.net for this campaign instead?"
6358703c-d8ef-4c0a-83a9-c948d370d743-image.png What's interesting is when you go to the site, Bhaktimarga.org, it shows our domain in the URL bar. Is this done for performance and masks the hosting provider domain? I haven't talked to website developers about this yet, but my main question is...Does this have any SEO ramification? Thanks so much,

Unsolved New Clients with Horrible Rankings
Bringing on a handful of established clients that have never focused on SEO. Needless to say, they will be starting past page 5 on many items. What is the best tactic to figure out their ranking, determine progress internally and also provide movement reports when they are past the five page limit?

Do You Risk A Penalty From Local Paid Directories in 2022?
Hi there, I have a client who wants to advertise in a local directory along the lines of "find your nearest plumber". The directory only has paid listings and they are follow links and they also mention your site or generated landing page may get a nice bump on google. Is there a risk that they may get a penalty for using this directory? The client wants to use it regardless of if it gives them an SEO boost but obviously wants to avoid any penalties at all costs. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance
