No data available for example.com in WMT. What to do?
-
Hi,
Our problem is simple: we have statistics data for www.example.com but some data is missing for example.com (eg."links to your site", "structured data, "html improvements") .
However, "search queries", "index status" and some other data is available for example.com.
The problem is that we have over 5000 subdomains and we see no information about them.(especially links pointing to them).
We followed every advice given by Google but doesn't seem to work:
-Adding www.example.com and example.com in WMT
-Setting www.example.com as the preffered domain
-Using DNS verification to verify our site
What do we have to do?
Thank you,
Axello

Hi Everett,
The Google Search Quality Team's response was:
"Hi,
Thank you for your email.To see link data from subdomains, you will have to verify each subdomain to your Webmaster Tools account.Sincerely,
The Google Search Quality Team
"
We have changed our content structure to a directory based structure.
Thank you for your support.

Hello Axello,
Are you still having this problem? If so, someone may need to look at your GWT setup to diagnose the issue. You can try some of the SEO companies and consultants listed here in order to hire an analyst to help fix the issue.
If you feel comfortable sharing the domain I can have a look for you to see if there are any answers to be had without logging into GWT.

Everett,
Thank you for your support.
The DNS verification was done from mydomain.com.
We are more willing to pay for this service, if your team gets the right solution.
Thank you,
Axello

Sorry for the misunderstanding Axello, but I was asking from which site account did you set up the DNS record for verification. If you did this from the www.mydomain.com account when setting it up to be verified it is possible that the code given would not work for other subdomains, since technically "www" is a subdomain. This is all relatively new for everyone, including myself, but I would try using the DNS verification method from the http://mydomain.com GWT account if you haven't done that already.
Does this make sense? I am very curious to know what the issue is too. Please keep us posted. In the meantime, maybe someone else from Moz can provide some input as well. I will ask our team if any have dealt with this.
Regards,
Everett

Hi Everett,
I think i sent the question from www.mydomain.com.
I did it again from mydomain.com. Today.

Axello,
In regard to my other question: Did you set it up on http://yourdomain.com or from the http://www.yourdomain.com GWT account?

Hi Everett,
We have sent a message using their feedback form one month ago. But no response.

Hello Axello,
Thank you for your patience as we narrow down the possibilities.
Have you sent any kind of email or help request to the GWT team?
Did you do this on http://yourdomain.com or from the http://www.yourdomain.com GWT account? If you want it to cover all subdomains you may have to do it from http://yourdomain.com.

Hi Everett,
The DNS verification was made almost a month ago.
Nothing seems to work.

Hello Axello,
How long has it been? Sometimes it takes several days, even up to a week, for the DNS changes to take effect.

Google Analytics - Events impacting session data
Hi Mozzers, Has anybody ever experienced event tracking significantly impacting session data? Here's a summary of what I'm finding: When I measure sessions to a particular hostname (a subdomain) in my Google Analytics report, sessions dropped by over 100% when I removed some event tracking on that subdomain (an event was triggered when a user clicked on a particular button). When I reinstate that event tracking, sessions go back up to around where they used to be. Can anybody understand why this might be happening? Thanks!

Two of Four Google Analytics Views Not Showing Data
Question for you MOZ friends: We added two new views about a week ago, the same views that we have added for more than 50 Accounts, and they are not showing any data. The views are for 'Filtered Traffic' (no IPs or spam) and 'Organic Only' including only the organic medium. Any ideas why this may not be working? First time we've come across this and couldn't find much help researching it... Thanks as always! street%20ga_zpsorfdnemi.png

WMT data vs. Analytics
Hi Each month I export my data from WMT and go through analytics. I also export our non brand queries from analytics and not WMT - I haven't had an issue before, but this month the impression data is quite different. In the hundreds of thousands different for keywords, everything seems to have taken a big jump and it seems strange. However, not everything is different, I've spot checked some and its; consistent in both, I'm not sure what's going on? One example would be: <colgroup><col width="281"> <col width="72"></colgroup>

| industrial shelving | 1016 |
| industrial racking | 999 | These appear as impressions from Query data in analytics, but they appear nowhere in my WMT query data. Analytics query data shows: | industrial equipment | 670 | WMT Data: | industrial equipment | 143 | Anyone have any idea? Perhaps some kind of tracking issue? Also I've triple checked dates etc...0 -
Different transaction data social channel on Google Analytics
Hi there, On my ecommerce, in order to find out the number of transactions that came directly from my social channels I go to Acquisition->Channels and then I look at the column Transactions for the Social channel. Surprisingly this number differ from the one that I find under Acquisition->Social->Overview and then I select Transaction under Conversions. Then I look at Last interaction Social Conversions to find the number of transactions. The two quantities are totally different for a month window and they should be the same. Can any of you explain to me the reason why? Thanks and regards

How can we stop Google analytics pulling in data from another site?
We have a few accounts under one Google login. They all have separate Google analytics codes but one of the sites is somehow pulling in some data from another site but the other site has not got the same analytics code on it. Not sure how this is happening and what we can do about this, is it a bug in the Google Analytics system? Any help would be appreciated.

For an optimized site, any available stats / guesstimates on what is avg % of traffic to homepage vs. second-level pages?
I'm interested in passing this info on to a client who experienced a period of time when an incorrect GA code was installed on their homepage. They were able to get Google stats on second level pages only. This is a site that gets 80 + % of visits from organic search engine referrals. They do minimal advertising. Thanks in advance.
