Slow growth in organic traffic
-
Hi,
Recently our website after 5 months of launch started seeing more organic traffic, thanks to the seo effort being put. However, off late the growth is quite slow and we don't see much increase in organic traffic any more. Any idea on what could have happened to cause this or is it normal.
Here is the link to the website to check and if you can recommend anything - https://www.keyhub.com
Thanks,

Of course, I meant in addition to the Keyword some variable which helps it differentiate and unique.

Far better to write a proper title & description. The title is vital in telling Google what the page is all about. Simply adding a number will separate them but they will still struggle to rank. You need to tell Google what is on the page:
Primary Keyword | Secondary Keyword | Company Name

Ok, I get it. These are category pages and as there are multiple pages for categories too they have duplicate titles. We will try to add some varialble like page number or something in the title to make sure there are no duplicates.
-
Yes I think you are right. There are over 700 pages with duplicate titles though. This from my scan:
These are just an example: All share the same title.

For each of the products like - https://www.keyhub.com/en/buy-fortnite-deluxe-founders-pack-xbox-one-compare-cd-keys-prices/ it is already customized according to the game name.
It is only for the catalog page - https://www.keyhub.com/en/cd-keys-prices-compare/ that it is not customized.
-
You could try and automate and have a meta title & description inserted from the name of the game. I have seen that done quite successfully.
Title Format: " <game name="">Compare Prices <review, code&="" cheats="">| Keyhub.com"
Description Format: "Compare prices on <game name="">and read all about the game at Keyhub including walkthroughs, hints, codes & cheats"
Something like that.
Ask a developer - I'm sure it wouldn't cost much.
Cheers

Hi Nigel,
Thanks a lot for your comprehensive response and the time you took out. To give you a bit of background, we are a price comparison platform. With 100s of new games added everyday. This makes it a bit more difficult for us to have unique titles or descriptions for each page.
So the point 2, 4 & 5 you mentioned our unfortunately the number of pages which host all those games. As there are more than 900 games and they all span over around 100 pages so they have the same page title.
Rest we will work on it to the best of our capacity to fix it
Thanks again

Yes - it's only a small piece of the jigsaw as I'm sure you know but it's a great kickstart for them!
Cheers Nigel

Wow! Nigel... This is quite an informative and helpful post. Looks like they need guidance but much of the work can be done in-house, but only if they know how to do it.

Hi kh
I think I can help
1. our blog is in a blog directory so automatically your posts are in e directory within a directory. This goes back to teh way your site was set up with an extra lower directory housing the blog posts!
2. 100s of posts share the same page title: They all need to be unique

4. 100s of duplicate descriptions
Keyhub compare for you prices of 32 top online sellers. Search, Compare, Buy.

7. The site is slow:
These are just a few observations. The site is a bit of a mess I'm sorry to say and you need a very good SEO to produce a Site Audit to help you fix eveything. It's not just the odd thing - a bit of sticking plaster/bandaid won't do.
Kind Regards Nigel

Increase in Direct Traffic plus Bounce Rate rise for all traffic sources
Hello, I work for an agency and we have seen a big rise in bounce rate for 4 of our clients which happened on the exact same day. This rise on bounce rate is across all traffic sources. We are also seeing a big increase in direct traffic, starting on the same day. Is it possible for bot traffic to affect the bounce rate of all other traffic sources? We have ruled out double reporting in GA but can explain how the bounce rate has increased for all traffic sources. How is this linked to the rise in direct traffic (in some cases as high as 500%)? Thanks

Direct Traffic from Ashburn, VA
We've seen a huge spike in traffic form Ashburn, VA every Monday. It's wrecking our analytics. I don't want to create a filter based on location because we should receive legitimate traffic from that location. I see there are a few other identifiers that make me think I could add a filter for just those items (iOS 5, Safari). Does anyone have a current best-practice for this type of problem? Tx!

Traffic Drop Observations: Google UI, Mobilegeddon
Our traffic has dropped 25% in the last 3 weeks while maintaining our keyword rankings. At first, we thought it was due to the simultaneous change in Google UI where they removed the separators between ads and organic results. However, now, we have also noticed that our user devices have gone from ~ 50% desktop/50% mobile to 20% desktop/80% mobile. Just food for thought ...

Tracking Google places (7 pack listing) traffic in google analytics
Is there a way to see Google Places traffic (traffic from users clicking through the 7 pack listings) segmented in Google analytics ? Normally is it just lumped together with the organic traffic ? Can you see the search phrases used to find your site, or do they also show up under 'not provided' when from Google Places. Im aware i can see some limited data in the Google Places analytics, but these seem to be 2 days behind when ever i view them.

Where to find "Keywords that Sent Organic Search Visits" in Google Analytics?
Hi everyone, Tried searching for this answer but couldn't find it. In the new analytics, I can see that there is a graph that shows the number of unique keywords that brought traffic to our site sorted by weeks. I can't seem to find this data in Google Analytics. I can only find the number of visits but not sorted by how many keywords, instead it is just # of visits from all of the keywords. Thanks in advance. SZ

Differences in organic search visits and non-paid keyword visits
Hi folks, I was just wondering at the disparity between the "Organic Search Visits" total in the Traffic Data tab and the total visits from "Non Paid Keywords Sending Search Visits". Once you add up all the traffic generated from the individual keywords (including the not provided numbers) shouldn't the total match the number of organic search results? Or is there something I'm missing? At the moment the total visits from non-paid keywords is about 2,000 short of the total organic search visits.
