How to track search queries with GA
-
Hi there,
I am trying to track my search queries on my site with GA. http://i.imgur.com/Pfkasco.png
Until now, I have to result? Any tips?

Looking at your setup, I would have thought it should work so I'm a little confused.
if you're still having trouble, you can use filters in GA to custom extract the search term from the URL and pass it through to GA.

Hola Amigo,
I think you misunderstood my question. I want to track the search queries within my site with my search bar.
Thanks for the answer!

Hi there!
This is actually a fairly simple process but you will want to use Google Search Console instead of Google Analytics:
The good news is that Google Search Console is **FREE! **
-
Sign into GSC and click search traffic
-
Then click search analytics
-
See the queries button? Select that!
You can use the different configurations on this page to filter your website traffic and find queries that landed users on your pages. Hope you found this helpful!

It's look exactly like this: recherche?controller=search&orderby=position&orderway=desc&search_query=botte&noproduct_text=Il+n%27a+aucun+produit
the keyword is botte

What is the website you need to set up tracking on? Can you give me an example of a URL when someone has searched?

GA traffic locations must be wrong? Most hits from a state we don't do business in!
I launched a website earlier this year. Very limited traffic, 200-300 a month. It is an info site for a specialized business. However, when I review my GA traffic reports, 20% of our traffic comes from one city in Virginia. (although the company does business in many states, it does not in Virginia) or anything close. The bounce rate is 97%! Could it be a web scraper or some kind of redirect?

Store locator searches online and offline store visits
Hi All, What is the accepted % for visitors that conduct a store locator search online actually visiting that particular store for the nutrition industry? (For example if 50 people used the store locator search on the website , we can confidently say that 25 of them actually went to that store) Any input or reference to studies/white papers on this topic would be appreciated. Cheers, SEO5..

How to best figure out synonymous search phrases
I'm curious about synonymous key phrases and competitive key term analysis. I have a few methods for conducting research to find what phrases Google considers synonymous but they are very time consuming. What are some ways to figure this out? An example would be livestock and cattle. Are there any good ways to figure out user intent related key phrases? For example in our niche if someone is looking to purchase something Google often delivers pages with title tags that include the term supplies. Would it be advantageous to optimize for these types of key phrases if the competition is less or should I assume that Google groups exact match and synonym and intent match together when calculating relevancy. Eg I can choose to target livestock or cattle on page. Livestock gets a quarter the search volume cattle gets but has half the competition. Will I be competing against the cattle sites too? If so should I just bite the bullet and target cattle?

Internal Site Search Analysis
Hi Folks, I have about 6,000 internal site search phrases that I want to analyze. There are many variations and duplicates that have similar intent within the data, e.g. Employment, Employment Opportunities, Employment Application. Does anyone have any thoughts on how I can aggregate the data to get an idea of user intent. There's a lot of long-tail in there. The data does not come from Google's site search tool. I just have a spreadsheet of the terms and the number of times they were searched. Cheers!

Can we rank as a related search query on a competitor's brand keyword?
One of my clients wanted to know whether it's possible for him to rank as one of the related pages on Google for a brand name of a competitor. I honestly don't know whether it's possible so any ideas whether it's possible and if so, ideas on what can be done is greatly welcome. Thank you in advance. 🙂
