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

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

Spammy traffic
Hi guys! There has been an unusual amount of traffic to one particular page on our blog. Now that the business is slow, I had the time to look into it. Half of that traffic is coming from India and we are a Chicago based limo service. We 'll skip why that happens part for now.

I let Hotjar record 100 session and upon reviewing them I have noticed a lot of sessions with no interaction, no mouse movement, no clicks; just scroll and exit. My question is related to implementing a type of verification (captcha) for that blog page to see if the bots / behavior changes.
Are there any downside in terms of in page SEO for this type of implementation?

Increase in Direct traffic, drop in Google traffic, after updating Google Analytics settings.
I made some changes to our Google Analytics property settings (see notes in screenshot). As a result, there was an equal drop in Google traffic and increase in Direct traffic. Has anyone else seen something like this before? I'm wondering if I should revert. jE7buO6

Organic Traffic Spike
I've been chipping away at the SEO for a client's site for about 6 weeks and a few days ago noticed a huge spike in organic traffic for about a dozen keywords. See attached. Previously traffic was around 20-30 unique new visitors a day. On the 17 it went up to 500+ for 1 day, now it's come back down again. This spike was not for 1 keyword but for about a dozen. I've never seen this before and wondered if anyone had experienced similar. The site is about 3 months old. ebix3rl

Why Pre roll Youtube video ads are being recorded into Organic Traffic?
Hi Mozzers, Last month, one of our clients(appliance and kitchen design) has started a video ad campaign on Youtube for a specific Appliance brand, since then I have noticed Organic traffic has been inflated. I was able to figure it out thanks to some keywords that we never ranked for. How is this possible? Google Analytics should at least be able to segment that into a Youtube Referral traffic.

Number of clicks / organic traffic - different data in Google Analytics and Webmaster Tools
Hi. I have a little problem. When I open Google Webmaster Tools I see 3000 clicks (in Traffic - Search queries - Clicks). But when I open Google Analytics I see much more visits from search engine (Google) - it´s 4-5 times more! It´s a huge difference, don´t you think? Do you know, where is the problem? What causes this diffence? thanks a lot

Should I delete a page that gets search traffic, that I don't care about?
I have a page on my site that consistently gets traffic, every month. Googlers seems to love it. But I don't like it at all. Webmaster tools shows that google allows us a certain number of search impressions each day. - it flatlines, they are limiting the impressions we get. We also getthe same number of clickthroughs each day. So my question is for anyone who has this same experience, who may have experimented by deleting a page you don't care about. Did you just lose that number of clicks each day or did other pages on your site get displayed and clicked through instead?

For an optimized site, any available stats / guesstimates on what is avg % of traffic to homepage vs. second-level pages?
I'm interested in passing this info on to a client who experienced a period of time when an incorrect GA code was installed on their homepage. They were able to get Google stats on second level pages only. This is a site that gets 80 + % of visits from organic search engine referrals. They do minimal advertising. Thanks in advance.
