Http://www.springmetrics.com/ vs SEOMOZ.org

We are a pro member of SEOMOZ. I know that we have not used it to its full potential. Now our marketing department is considering using
I need to have a comparison and contrast of SEOMOZ vs springMetrics. Also, can you include how google real time fits into this.

I have to agree with both Pashmina and Opt. Springmetrics.com and SEOmoz are totally different tools. For optimizing your site (or your client's site) for SEO, SEOmoz is the way to go - no question. When you want to measure the revenue and conversions for the keywords for which you have optimized (along side of your other PPC, email, and social media campaigns), then you use SpringMetrics.
-
Comparing SEOmoz to SpringMetrics is comparing apples to oranges.
At the same time SpingMetrics business metrics dashboards are nice. And while you can pull the same raw data & some of the stats from Analytics, the way they present the data is nice, and does save time for business & marketing decision making.

Google Analytics can do most of what springmetrics does and none of what the SEOmoz tools do. They're quite different pieces of kit... for SEO, I mean not just measuring but doing, there's no way I'd trade SEOmoz for anything, let alone something that can't do any of the stuff I need it to.
The Q&A alone on here is worth the spend, then you've got the crawl errors, OSE, a whole host of other tools... and that's not to mention the stuff they're working on at the moment to come out soon. You'd be mad to swap out, especially as the two options are miles from "like for like" in terms of what they do.
Spring Metrics = Analytics tools
SEOmoz = SEO tools

I have never used Spring Metrics but as it has a free 14 day trial would it not be best to trial it? Would be even better if you could let us know your thoughts on it too once trailed!

Attributing Lead Source/Medium on Squarespace forms
Hi Mozzers Happy new year! We've recently picked up a client for some PPC and SEO work and their website is built using Squarespace. It's a B2B business, so enquiries don't always get sent straight from a landing page. Often a user hits our desired landing pages then checks out a few other pages before sending an enquiry. The problem we have is with attaching the source/medium of a lead to the enquiry that we receive. For example if Joe Bloggs completes a form, what we'd like to receive is:
Paid Search Marketing | | ZestUK
Name: Joe Bloggs
Email: joe.bloggs@email.com
Phone: 123456
Source: Google
Medium: CPC With the latter as hidden fields. We've tried the hidden field feature built into the form builder, but this only works if the user completes the form on the landing page they arrived on without leaving the page. We've tried to used event tracking but this only gives us accuracy on the number of enquiries from that channel, not who the user was that enquired, so we can't consolidate with our order and revenue report to work out ROI from each activity. Has anybody in the community ever solved this issue on Squarespace? Thanks

Impressions - AdWords vs Analytics
Given AdWords is a paid service, you'd hope the figures are accurate. For an example (exact match) keyword last month, AdWords says there were 14,253 impressions on Google search (i.e. not search partners or display network). However, going over to Analytics, for the same month it suggests 4,500 impressions for the same keyword. Google AdWords says the following about impressions: "An impression is counted each time your ad is served on Google's ad networks, such as on Google.com or other publisher websites and apps." "...How often your ad is shown. An impression is counted each time your ad is shown on a search result page or other site on the Google Network." Google Analytics explains impressions as: "The number of times any URL from your site appeared in search results viewed by a user, not including paid AdWords search impressions." Can anyone help clarify what is an accurate way of attaining monthly search figures, i.e. what is my overall potential Google customer base? I've also tried the Keyword Planner - which averages monthly searches - and it gives me 18,100 impressions for the same keyword (almost the two above figures added). Thanks! Rob

Google URL Builder / Campaign Tracking on two Different Domain using the Same Analytics Code
Hey Everyone, I think I know the answer to this but I'd like to get some confirmation. I currently have a landing page at "www.xyz.com", it's a separate domain in which only the landing page exists and not a vanity URL which redirects. However, the navigation and all the links on "www.xyz.com" actually link out to "www.abc.com". The domain / landing page "xyz" has the same analytics tracking code as domain "www.abc.com". My question is this, if I use Google URL builder to create custom URL's to track for each ad that I'm running in Adwords, will this data show up in the analytics of "abc" even though it's a separate domain because it has the same analytics code? In other words, does campaign data show only if the domain and the google analytics code line up, or does the domain not matter and as long as you have the same analytics code (despite two separate domains) that campaign data (built through Google URL builder) will show? My hunch and best guess it that as long as the analytics code is the same (regardless of a separate domain) that the data in campaign will show with the custom URL's I build. I'm aware that I can test this and I will but I'd like to get an idea from the community first to make things easier. Anybody have experience with this? Answers greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Has anyone seen a recent study on % of clicks on Adwords vs Organic results?
HI, I am trying to find out what percentage of people click on organic search results on Google versus the percentage of people who click on advertisements. I have found many references online to studies that supposedly say 70-80% of clicks go to organic results and the rest go to ads, but I have never seen an actual study claiming this, let alone a recent one. Can anyone help? many thanks in advance, Annemieke
