Some Google Webmaster Tool Traffic Analysis of Dragon Blogger for September
Posted by: dragonblogger // Category: Internet, bloggingOkay, so I was playing around with Google Web Master tools tonight some more, and have decided to look at the google searches that take place and what my site lists at when people do searches.
The first graph GWT (Google WebMaster Tools) shows you is “Impressions” these are the queries where your site gets listed. (Not user’s who arrive at your site, but what queries, and what place your site gets listed in the results). This is important, because you want to know what queries your site is showing up under.
So you will see in this image (you can click to make it larger) that”Heroes” related queries account for many my blog showing up in google search quite a bit. Some queries my blog is as low as the 4th or 3rd position which I think anything in the first 5 is pretty good for a start.
Ubuntu related posts and iPod related posts are my next ones. Ironically if someone searches for “Dragonfly Poems” my blog is the 9th site listed since I have a few posts that link to and talk about that site.
The next statistic is traffic, traffic is actual users who end up on your site based on the query they searched in google. This is extremely important as it will help you craft your site’s “tags” to be more google search friendly. Learn the pattern of queries so you can adjust your tags accordingly.
Here you will see thatagain ipod and ubuntu, and heroes related queries are very big for my blog. But someone who searched for “Detailed Hardware Information” arrived on my blog, and I was the #2 position on that query. This was probably my CPU-Z post, where I actually used the tag “Detailed Hardware Information”
So if you make your tags match what you think somebody would search in google to arrive at your site, you can bet better rankings and matches and therefore be in the top listings. Obviously the popularity of a site also affects your listing, so if 10,000 sites matched the same tag, the popular ones would get the top slots, but still. I am surprised that my blog only 30 days has any queries that match the top 3-9 queries on Google, so its a good start.
Just thought I would share this with the world, how many other blogger’s out there do this kind of Query Analysis of their blog on a regular basis?
