Is there a way to see what keywords users of my site are using to find it online?
-
Since Google Analytics no longer shows the keywords used by people to find a site online, does the SEOMoz toolset provide somethng to show this data?
-
This was written in 2012, is this still the case, if so where does one find this in the sea of analytic data?
-
GA does still provide keywords, so you must be talking about the (not provided) list of keywords, correct?
If this is the case, then No, there isn't an easy way to track this information. But if you want to spend some time you can get a rough idea of keywords based on the landing page they are hitting.
For any page on your site, you can see a complete list of keywords that landed on the page (with percentages). So now you can take these percentages and use them with the Not provided numbers from Google.
For example:
page1.html - 100 landed visits from the keyword "example", which accounted for 10% for that page.
page1.html - 1000 visits from the keyword "(not provided)", so with a little math you can estimate that 10% of the 1000 visits came from the term "example"
**I should note the term used from GA is "Entrances". This is the number you need to use.

In addition to Google Analytics we use a site called luckyorange.com

Joel is correct. Analytics does still allow you to download a report that shows the actual keywords used that led them to your website

Last I checked Analytics still gave insight on keywords.
If you use google analytics it will give you every keyword that a person uses to get to your site. You need to follow the reports. I have the app for my iPhone and iPad. I monitor my site daily. One of the best features is seeing how people get to my site.
Analytics shows me their operating system used
Keywords Used
Unique visitors
location of the search
and a crazy amount of data
Best part it is free.

Hope this helps.

No, from what I know there is no way to find out as this is given and done by Google.
SEOmoz gathers information from Analytics as well, so that will not help. But Analytics will give you an idea of what is going on.

Is there a way to get the domain authority of a subdomain?

Colors in keyword Difficulty Report
Hi Everyone Two quick questions today 1. How can I find out hat the different colors within the keyword Difficulty Report represent and how can I see examples of how this information can help us with our data analysis? 2. The second question I have is regarding the Term Extractor. Seems when I ran a domain it provided the wrong data. For example, it stated that a certain keyword exists certain number of times within the description and title of the page but when I looked at the source this was not the case so it made studying the competition harder.
