I'd love to see it. Sounds like they built a good system for not only explaining but testing you to make sure you understood it. Good stuff.

I use GA more than ever now. To tell you the truth, I felt that I know a lot about internet marketing. Tips n Tricks no longer helped. Strategy was way more important. So I needed to come "full circle" in my internet marketing efforts. So now I can see most of my work's performance, whether good or poor, through advanced web analytics. The last thing left before I get my Market Motive Certification is passing the interview. I have to defend my Web Analytics Measurement Model in front of a panel (Avinash and John).
I had to make a custom dashboard for my website. I can email it to you so you can see my end result.

Good list. And yes, Schema.org is on my list as well, a little further down.
How was the Analytics Ninja Course?
-
Hey Thomas! How you been? Here are my 3:
- Highly relevant content creation.
- Continue growing my Advanced Web Analytics strategy I learned from Avinash. Oh I forgot to tell you, I took his Analytics Ninja course.
- International SEO to reduce PPC costs.
If I could write a 4th, it would be schema.org.

Guilty of keyword cannibalization. What's the best way to fix it without losing link juice?
Hi guys, I'm new here but I already spent hours reading the forums. I didn't post before because I didn't feel the need to, but today it's different. I don't want to take fixing steps that are not optimal for my website situation. So here's the problem : I am working on an affiliate website that is growing day after day and is already profitable. It is not by any mean a thin affiliate site. It's a french language website with product reviews on it. Right now there is 1 main page (hero page) per review in which I describe the products, put affiliate links, present useful information, etc. These pages have a good word count and I am targeting 1-2 main keywords on them which I consider a good practice. Couple of months ago I decided to add a product page for each one (normally it's 5 products per review) so I added 5 more page per review, targeting product names as new keywords. Problem is that : Product names are very similar to the main keywords (keyword cannibalization problem) There is very little added information on the product page when you compare it to the hero page (too thin) A lot of information is repeated on each of the product pages. I think this is bad. So I decided to keep only the hero pages to keep more link juice, avoid keyword cannibalization, improve page authority and get more content on one single page (only information that was not repeated have been added to hero page). I removed ALL THE LINKS to product pages (from the hero page). So now for my questions : Is it better to keep the product pages in my sitemap or to delete them right away? Is it better to let the product pages die by themselves over time or to 301 redirect all the product pages to hero page to keep link juice? The next question is a bit more complicated. Hope you guys understand what I mean. Considering that product pages are now gone, this will for sure weaken my bounce rate % because only hero page with good/deep information will be accessible to visitors (there is not a lot of internal links in each review, except to other, RELATED reviews). Is setting up goals in google analytics + telling google that it should consider a click on an affiliate link as a NEW PAGE VIEW (like it would act for a click on a link of a product on my own domain) will help for SERPs and SEO?? Or it will just help ME to see a lower bounce rate and setting goals? In other words, is tracking these links and let google see them as new pages clicks will help for the page rankings or not? Because from what I am understanding, a good bounce rate helps for rankings. If the changes made to avoid keyword cannibalization work, when could I potentially see the effects/benefits in the SERPs and trafic?

Setting up external link goals in GA
I have recently switched all my travel affiliate links to TripAdvisor using their javascript code that converts the natural links (direct links to TA URLs) to affiliate links. I have set up goal tracking in GA to try to put a monetary value on clicks through to these links (based on the known conversion rate to commissionable bookings) but GA is over-reporting the goals by a very large margin. I'm wondering what I've done wrong. The first screen shot below is of the goal settings I used in GA. The second screenshot shows that GA is reporting 7125 goal completions since I set up the goal on 7 August. The third screenshot shows the actual number of GA events recorded on outbound clicks to TA URLs in the same period, which is just 97. So the goal completions being recorded far exceed the actual goal completions, but I'm not sure why. I know I've done something wrong but as this is the first time I've used goals, I'd appreciate some help to see what I've done wrong. Thank you. 3f7dc3de6f9f1373d47994144a5cb016 56aa39130a7d54b07d8f2ce9cf1d7fb0 35ee827275928ca8c4d4c941f0672ef8

Before I request hundreds of links for "nofollow" I want to verify I'm doing the right thing
Happy Thanksgiving Mozers, In my efforts to get rid of a Google penalty, I've come to the conclusion that all the travel agents who link to our site with a unique code, are technically affiliates because they get commission. Therefore we need to get all of them to switch their links to "rel=nofollow". I'm worried this shift will cost us in search rankings, especially since none of our competitors require nofollow tags. So before I actually begin requiring the switch, I wanted to just double check that I'm not misinterpreting Google. Our travel agents are paid commission on every sale (whether their customers click the link from their website to ours, or calls in and gives us that agent's code. So even though our travel agents aren't technically part of an "affiliate program" run through CJ or anything, they are in Google's eyes affiliates of my company. Therefore their links with their personal codes all need to be nofollow. Am I correct on this? I can't find anywhere where Google goes into great depth explaining various types of affiliates.

Launching new static template
My site, ShuttleFinder.net, has been online since 2002. Over the past ten years I have ranked pretty well for "Airport Shuttle" related keywords. Last October (2011), my traffic took a major nose dive (down 60 - 70%). I have been working hard to build up my traffic. First thing I did was hire a graphic designer to build a modern looking template. I decided to stick with a static site (as opposed to a CMS). I've been busy adding content, creating a blog, building social network links, and using tools like SEOmoz to fix title and meta descriptions. I also created a YouTube channel and added two professional commercials promoting ShuttleFinder.net. I haven't migrated my content to the new template yet (that's the next step). See attached screenshot of my newly designed site (this is a screenshot of my new home page). I know I still need to add a lot of fresh content, but will the new templates boost my rankings? watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo shuttlefinder-screenshot.png watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo shuttlefinder-screenshot.png watch?v=pW76Heqs5qo

How much SEO benefit am I getting from 'affiliate' links?
Hi all, We run lots of different campaigns with affiliates and as such they have links on their websites pointing back to ours. I was keen to know how much 'link-juice' these kinds of links are passing back to our websites or how much SEO benefit we are getting from them. The links have "?=affiliate" in them. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!! Many thanks! Rob
