Hi Carla_Dawson,

I'm not sure I follow your info exactly, but why would you need 25 unique thank you pages to track Adwords conversions?

1 Thank you page is enough with proper tracking installed and you'll be able to see the stats for each landing page right in Adwords / Analytics.

If you need to redirect to unique Thank You pages, then CF7 makes it very easy to change the redirect. You would need the 25 different contact forms, but you should be able to copy/paste the forms in WordPress, to make that process easier.

Hi Hatfish,

If both categories are relevant and deserve their own areas, then put the products in both the hierarchies. Then, decide which heirarchy is the most important (from a SERPs perspective) and Canonical the product URL to a single URL.

Using your example:

The sports car category would be my main category. When you navigate to the Convertibles category you would be able to find that sports car. However, when visiting the product the URL would resolve to a single URL. So, if I was in the convertible category it would send me to the Sports Car hierarchy page (through a 301 redirect).

Make sure to identify 1 URL for canonical purposes

Make sure to 301 the subordinate URL to the main URL

This way the user can use both areas to navigate through your site and find the product they are looking for. But, as far as SEO is concerned there is only 1 main URL for each product.

I'd agree, it's hard work! But, that's why we get paid a nice salary, to figure out those difficult problems. If you have an idea of the Customer Lifetime Value, for that country, you can get some decent estimates from the expected increase in traffic when targeting that country specifically.

My thoughts are as follows:

• Do the country specific search engines add / have the potential to add a lot of value to your business?

• If no, then do not worry about the country specific domains

• If yes, identify the specific countries that can add more value

• Are you having trouble ranking in those country specific search engines?

• If no, then continue with the single domain and adjust your 1 website to be more friendly to all countries

• If yes, do a cost-benefit analysis about the work it would entail to get country specific websites and the value you can derive from the expected increase in rankings

Hi RobertFisher,

I've recently integrated Cloudflare Business into a large ecommerce site (top 50k Alexa). The site had several issues that impacted page load speed, our new visitors were experiencing very long load times in the 4-7 second range.

Cloudflare is amazing for the price. at $200/month it greatly reduced the amount of HTTP requests, minification reduced our page size, and it even saved a lot of bandwidth (which translates to server cost savings and/or more for your money).

Their support service has been consistent, however, I know their Business and Enterprise customers are priority.

Most other CDNs are going to cost far more than $200. It reduced our page load speed around 50%, before optimizing the other performance configurations they have available.

You do need to do some quality and assurance testing. With any CDN, when you deliver certain things differently, like javascript files, a new conflict could arise. For example, our sliders were having trouble rendering after integrating CF, so we had to adjust the settings to get them loading properly again.

Is there something more specific I could tell you about it?

Hi Andy,

It looks like you need to do some Web Analytics due diligence to identify what caused that spike in conversions. Here is a list of things you can do to help identify the root cause:

- Setup Google Analytics Custom Alerts

GA's custom alerts do a great job of alerting us of unusual spikes / valleys from our traffic. I would suggest setting up custom alerts around your KPIs and business objectives. If you Google about GAs custom alerts, many of the recommended initial alerts are a great place to begin finding some to setup for your website.

- Use GA to find the differences in traffic and conversions

Although your conversions and traffic are relatively low (we may want to gather more data before concluding that there was a statistical difference in the conversion data), we could begin to analyze the traffic through understanding the sources it came from, specific campaigns that converted (make sure to be tagging your links accordingly!), qty of products ordered, maybe a new referral source contributed to the new conversions, ect.

- Do some keyword analysis

Did your new customers come from a specific source on a related topic? Did specific terms send new traffic to your sales page that converted well that day?

In order to find insights into changes, we need to make sure that we're properly tracking and measuring our traffic and acquisition strategies. Many times when there doesn't seem to be a definitive answer, it's because we haven't set ourselves up for success when measuring our campaigns and goals.
