How long does google take to pick up your new page headings and on page optimisation and when will results show fpr keywords due to this
-
can someone help thanks x
-
Yeah, agreed - it can really vary, and it depends on how often Google re-crawls your site, how deep the page is, etc. Keep in mind that "web design" keywords are very competitive generally, so just adding them to new pages isn't going to automatically get you ranking.

For my websites ranking on pages 1-3 of Google, I usually see changes in 2-3 days. However, the actual rank often jumps around a bit.

Matthew's correct, it may or may not help you in G ranking and it seems like if you do major changes like sitewide for instance you may even get a kick down for sometime until G knows you are finished making the changes.
Usually changes can be seen in Serp within a week for most sites, but it can be longer for some.
We've also found that if you rank well on yahoo for some reason it's not the same on G, and vice versa. Could just be us, but it makes sense that S.E's wouldn't want to show the same results as each other.
All the best!

Hello Laura,
Page headings and onpage optimization isn't going to be the key on specifically ranking up keywords. Your keywords may not move at all due to this.
I highly suggest you read many more threads here on some tactics on how to rank up keywords. There are many different ways to rank keywords, and many theories on how to rank them. I highly suggest that you read Rands posts and I personally like this thread here http://www.seomoz.org/blog/top-1-seo-tips-for-2013 by Dr. Pete. He's also very smart and knows what hes talking about.
As for the time it takes for Google to analyze your site is not known really. It can be right away, or it can be in two weeks. It all depends on how popular your website is and what reason Google has to keep going to your website. Is your website new? Is it already indexed by Google? If not you could submit your site to search engines, or ping it using a ping services. It's also a good idea to submit your site to social sites so it gets indexed quicker.
Have a great night and a happy holidays.

Transactions from some sources not showing up?
Hi all, For one of my clients it seems that we're not seeing conversions for one particular source (an online banner). I've been recommending that they do away with that paid advertising since it hasn't been converting. However, my client recently made a purchase from the ad to test it, and it's not showing up in conversion data. All other conversion data seems right on, so I have no idea what could be going on with this one referral source. It's showing accurate page views, accurate time on site, but no e-commerce data. Any ideas what would cause this source to not show up in conversions? The campaign info is also showing accurately in Analytics. I've attached what the redirect looks like, from the banner to the actual URL. Thank you! N6eUjT1GJv

Why are plus signs (+) suddenly showing up in Google Analytics organic search keywords reports?
Since June 13, 2013, the number of organic search queries containing a plus sign (+) has gone up over 1,000% compared to the previous period on my site in Google Analytics. These plus signs appear to be taking the place of spaces in these search queries (i.e. "word1+word2+word3"). This appears to be almost (or completely) Google organic traffic, not other search engines. Since I highly doubt searcher behavior would change so suddenly, I'm trying to figure out why Google is replacing spaces with plus signs. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

Advanced Segment on Google Analytics
Hello there, hope everyone is allright and rockin' the SEO world 🙂 Was wondering if anyone could give a tip on how to configure an 'Advanced Segment' on Google Analytics. Basically I need to isolate traffic for 4 specific subfolders. E.g. www.mywebsite.com/solutions/A www.mywebsite.com/solutions/B www.mywebsite.com/solutions/C www.mywebsite.com/solutions/D/part1 Please note that the website has more pages under the specific section. E.g www.mywebsite.com/solutions/Z www.mywebsite.com/solutions/D/part2 but I only need to isolate the 4 directories (and their own sub-folders) mentioned above. Any idea how I could do this? Thanks a lot Joe

Should you get a new Google Analytics account if your site has a new domain after a site redesign/new development?
We recently developed a new site for a client and they have opted to move forward with a domain change. Should we create a new Google Analytics account for the new site?
