Outbound Links - Analytics Help - 0 views

  • Because links that lead away from your site are not automatically tracked by Google Analytics, you will need to manually tag all outbound links you want to track. To do this, you will add some custom JavaScript that uses the _trackEvent method to record these links and then modify the links you want to track.  These instructions assume you already have either the traditional (ga.js) or the asynchronous tracking code in your pages, that you have some familiarity with JavaScript, and that you can edit your website pages to include this JavaScript.

  • Cornerstone content should always be content pages. It could be a blog post, but you could also make a page out of it. The content should be updated very regularly. Cornerstone articles should be explainers, so these should definitely be informative articles. In your cornerstone article, you should aim to rank for the most competing keywords.
  • Cornerstone articles are usually rather long. Everything that’s important about a certain topic should be covered in your cornerstone article. That’ll ask quite a bit of your writing skills. Lengthy articles are usually hard to read, especially from a screen. Make sure to use sufficient headings. An index at the beginning of a long cornerstone article is also a great idea.

How to Point Multiple Domain Names to One Website: And How to Avoid Search Engine Probl... - 0 views

  • The 3 sites, "example.com", "example.net" and "example.org", all point to the exact same page on the site's web host. It is done by hosting all three sites on the same web host, and arranging it so that they all resolve to the same account.
  • That is, there's a simple way to tell the search engines that all 3 domains point to the same site, and to add up all the links together and associate them with that site.
  • Next, you will also need to arrange with your web host to host all your domains so that they point to the same website.

  • After pointing all your domains to your website, you'll have to decide which of those domains is going to be your primary or main domain.
  • The kind of redirection employed above is recognised by search engines as an indication that all your different domains have moved permanently to your primary domain.
  • After setting the above, wait a couple of days for your changes to spread (or in the technical jargon for such things, "propagate") throughout the world, then test your secondary domains in your web browser.
  •  
    "A visitor recently asked me whether it was possible to point multiple domain names to one website, more or less the conceptual reverse of what I wrote about in "Can I Create Multiple Websites with One Domain Name?". This article discusses why a person might want to do this, how it can be accomplished, and provides a practical guide on the additional steps you need to take in order to avoid losing potential search engine ranking as a result of doing things this way."
