Google anomaly
-
Hi,
As per Google's Keyword Tool , the exact search volume for a particular keyword is 22000.
As per Google's Webmaster Tool , my SER for the same keyword is 5.8
BUT , I see only 500 impressions for this keyword in webmaster !
Can someone help decipher this behavior ?
-
Thanks Mate

It is because in AdWords KT Google estimates potential on global and local market.
In webmaster tools, when localization is not specified google collect data in a specific way, can say it's a measure of a propagation of particular site (written in e.g. english) in many local markets which are use that language.
Result is neither global nor local. Result is specific for particular site, language and many other factors responsible for spreading a content in many places. Please that it is correct for assumption that localization of a site is not set.
In other cases local results from GKT and local from GWT are comparable.
Hope my explanation clarified your doubts
-
Sry about the confusion ... I mean certain keywords in GKT have search volume around 22000 and GWT impressions around 15000. Why does not these keywords show "local" impression only in GWT
-
Sorry I don't understand, could you please ask clearly, what is search volume? in GWT?
-
But what about other keywords which GWT search volume around 22000 and GWT impressions around 15000
How do these keywords fit in entire scheme of things ?
-
If you didn't choose a geographic location google use different signals:
"If no information is entered in Webmaster Tools, we'll rely largely on the site's country domain (.ca, .de, etc.). If an international domain (.com, .org, .eu, etc) has been used, we'll rely on several signals, including IP address, location information on the page, links to the page, and any relevant information from Google Places."
more: GWT help
so your traffic can be for example from many english speaking countries
-
It depends - probably for google.com did you localize a site?
-
Correct ..
22000 is for Global in Google KWT
In google WT i have not set Geographic target
So which country say USA , Canada is the search impression for ?
-
Hello,
did you check what kind of searches is result from GKT? Global or local. In Google WT only the local searches are presented - just check it first

Moz reports way fewer backlinks than google search?
My site is only 11 months old but has steadily (if not slowly) been gaining backlinks. My question, is why Moz shows me at 303 backlinks and Google search console is showing at 1,237? I am more than a little suspicious that this could highlight the reason Moz shows such an unfavorable DA ranking for our site at a DA12. Other competitors that rank for similar keywords to mine are DA 42, DA 65, DA 73, etc. If the largest ranking factor is links, and they have mine reported incorrectly - is this the issue with DA as it relates to sites like mine? Any answer from someone who has experienced similar, or has a definitive answer is more than welcome to chime in! Thanks, Kevin

Drop in Bounce Rate in Google Analytics
Hi guys, I have recently seen a large drop in bounce rate (from GA) which seems unnatural for one of our clients website. Since the start of 2018, the bounce rate was consistently between 40-60%, and then saw a random spike, and now for the past two weeks, the bounce rate is below 10%. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas if this is a problem with GA, or the site itself. Site: https://www.zoomocarcredit.com/ Any comments/feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Jack.

How accurate is Google analytics at measuring traffic? (Free version)
Hi Guys. When we compare our actual sales to Google analytics conversions it can be way out. Sometimes as much as 50%. Is this the same for the data on traffic? And if so, does the data tend to be out by a similar amount over time? i.e) If we compare this year and last year it give us a good indicator of differences in traffic volume? (albeit not 100% accurate?) Thanks. Isaac.

How do you adjust the Google Analytics date range?
Hello! Every time I log into Google Analytics (via desktop), the date range is set to October 1, 2013 to October 28, 2013. I've looked throughout the GA settings to find a place where I change this default setting to anything else ("Last week?") but have not be able to find where that setting is. Can you help? Losing my mind,

Google as referring domain
Hi all, a colleague asked a question, which I could not answer (never even noticed this "problem") 😞 When we are logged into our GA account and go the referring domains section, we find Google. I always thought that these visitors came via Google Image Search, but not all of them do. Most of them come via "/imgres", but some come via "/" (always thought that "/" was the homepage?), "/url" and "//" Maybe I am just stupid, but honestly I could not explain what these strings mean... or how these visitors landed on our site... Can you help me???

What is click2.scour, and why is it showing up as Referral Traffic in Google Analytics?
I've noticed that a couple of my clients in the insurance industry have been receiving a pretty large boost in Referral Traffic from a source called click2.scour.com and click2.efacts.com. What surprises me most is that the traffic has a low Bounce Rate, a high Avg. Visit Duration, and is made up of 100% New Visits. What is this? Why would they be getting so much traffic from these two sources all of a sudden? Thanks in advance for your help!
