Google SEO - Where have I disappeared to?
-
Okay, so first off Google, I hate you.
Before I signed up for SEOMoz, my website was hitting page 9 and page 10 for some ultra difficult keywords. After spending a month using Hubspot and SEOMoz, I finally made it on to page 2 of google, for said 'impossible to rank high' keywords, which I was super happy with.
But last week, I login to find that I have disappeared off the top 100 pages of Google for about 100 of my top keywords!!!!
What the hell did I do wrong? I tried to please Google, but my website is still indexed, but just not ranked at all for any of my top keywords.
The last thing I did before I disappeared overnight was add "follow me" buttons to all my pages and "share this" buttons to all my blogs. Could this be the problem?
My website and main keyword is Process Server
Is there anyone who could help push me in the right direction? I have no idea what I did wrong.

There you go, completely re-uploaded again now. Any advice at all would be a great help.

Sorry, still uploading all my CSS files.
As for the Google issue, I thought the same thing when it happened last week, but a week on, and my website can't be found on even the loosest of keywords.
i.e.: last week, type in Private Investigator (which is a tremendously difficult keyword to rank for (23,000 views per month)), and I would have been in the top two or three pages, now you search, and I am nowhere to be found.
So then, last week, do a search for Private Investigator Essex, and I was number 1, as there is only about 600 views a month for this keyword. But now, I'm not in the top 50 pages!! And that's a ridiculously easy keyword to rank number 1 on. In fact, I've been rank number 1 on that for about 5 years!!!

still a problem with css & image - check the blog

it is only showing HTML for me mate!
no images, no css
I do feel for you.
I have had Google do similar to me before, but it usually changes back within a day.Hope you sort it

The website is back online now.

Ah, no, that's because I decided to delete my entire website and reupload all the content. Probably a stupid time to do that considering I had just asked out a question, but I just had a sudden urge to do a 'clean install'!!
It's re-uploading as I type.
If you fancy a look, it'll be up again in about 10 minutes, hopefully....
I am completely stuck with ideas, and clean install was the best idea I could come up with incase there were any stray pieces of code laying around on my server annoying the google bots.

Google Analytics Campaign Tracking overriding each other
Howdy, fellow mozzers. So, here is the situation: Let's say someone comes to the website through Organic Google Search, and first thing they see is the banner on the website, on a click of which it takes you to a promotional landing page. I have this banner being tracked with GA campaigns. Now, here are my questions: If that user makes a purchase, which source / medium it will be assigned to? Organic/google or website/banner? (as far as i understand it assigns it to website/banner) If that's the case, is there way to find out afterwords where the website/banner sessions came initially from? If there is no such way, how shall i setup the tracking to be able to see wherre the initial visit to the website came from, yet also track how many people clicked on the banner and made a purchase? Thanks 🙂

Google Analytics subdomain ecommerce tracking flatlines :-(
Buongiorno from 19 degrees C wetherby UK 🙂 This website http://www.philpotts.co.uk/ contains a shop sub domian @ http://shop.philpotts.co.uk/. I configured the site Ga analytics code to include the subdomain (see below code). I had to do this as i was getting refferal data from the actuall subdomain. But after following the instructions on p117 of cutroni's ga book things have gone wrong, mainly now eCommerce data has dissapeared 😞 So my question is please: "Why has installing the GA code above caused eCommerce tracking to suddenly go dead?" Grazie tanto,
