How does Google sort multiple websites in one GWT account?
-
Today I noticed one of our sub-domains listed in our Google Webmaster Tools Account moved from the 6th position to the 2nd position.
Is there a reason for this (perhaps urls/sites listed at the top require the most attention)?
-
All 14 sites listed in my Google Webmaster Tools accounts always appear sorted alphabetically even though it is set to "By Site Health" and the only time one drops to the bottom is when there are messages, access issues, etc.

You know, this is a good question and one that has been plaguing me.
While I am not under any false illusions of GWT being any sort of authority or source for anything other than sitemaps and notifications, I still wonder what's happening here. It says it is sorted "By Site Health." That makes me wonder what's up and grabs my attention. I have several domains listed in mine and (what I consider to be) my healthiest site by far is listed at the bottom.. Which means either the unhealthy sites go first or this is all mixed up. I lean towards the latter.
Still I would like to know what the heck...

Set up Google Analytics by product category
Does anyone know if it's possible to set up Google Analytics data by product category? We sell roughly twenty product categories on our ecommerce site. We can look at our analytics performance for the site overall and drill down to specific pages, but what we really want to see is our performance by product category. Our product categories can include up to 5000 products. Any pointers on how to do this?

What should I expect after completely redoing a website?
Hello Forum, My team and I have completely redone an eCommerce website, which offers new SEO-friendly URLs. We have also taken care to optimize our product and category pages for specific keywords, so as to keep our regular traffic and increase the long-tail. In the old un-optimized website, many of its Google search results simply took users to the homepage, thus the homepage has a lot of external link juice. Our new site is optimized so that users are taken to the page most relevant to their query. For example (we are a yoga site), with the old site a search for "yoga bolsters" would take visitors to the homepage. Now the search results take the users to the yoga bolster page. These new pages don't have the amount of external links as the new site and I've noticed a decrease in our site's average rank in Google Webmaster Tools 1.Given our new site with its new URLs, should this increase be expected? (we have implemented 301 redirects from the old site to the new) 2. What steps would you take to ensure you keep your rankings with the new site? Are they any special tools you recommend? 3. What the best way to increase the ones that have dropped? Page optimization? Link building? Both?

Why is Webmaster Tools not Linking Correctly Google Analytics?
I have a global site with .com as the US site and then /country for all other markets i.e. .com/uk .com/de etc. Each site has it's own WMT profile. Each site has it's own GA profile. Since Google added Search Engine Optimization to the GA interface, I can't track these sites separately under this new feature. It seems to me that it can only be associated with a single WMT profile at a time or rather that WMT can only be associated with a single GA profile at a time. The numbers for the UK and US site are identical, but when I try and link the UK WMT account with GA it removes it from the US profile and vice versa.

Moving GAnalytics access from Gmail account to GApps account
Hi team. My main Google Analytics account uses my personal gmail account that existed before Google Apps. I now only use that account for Analytics and Website Optimizer. I use Google Apps for email and everything else. Does anyone know if I can move the Analytics / Optimizer access from my gmail account to my apps account?
