Inbound search engine traffic: why bloggers need it?how?
You got to be joking if you say no. Since the entire search engines, SEO analyst and top class bloggers always saying inbound links makes your page rank high, your blog get index higher in search engine. Without inbound traffic there is no chance your blog will be get viewed by readers. As I recall one of the bloggers post here Blogger Prompt: Know Your Audience. So if you don’t analyze your inbound traffic how will you going to know them? That’s where inbound search engine traffic analysis come in. There are lots of tools available in the market both open source and premium that shows back links, but there is lack of options and features that are related to traffic analysis. As a blogger I always feel the needs of tools that will let me know the total analysis of traffic-from keyword analysis to traffic trends. But I prefer open source or free tools. After long search this one popped up-
103bees is a free tool for analyzing inbound search engine traffic. As with most tools of this nature you use it by adding a small piece of JavaScript code to your template and it then goes to work analyzing what SE the traffic is from, what keywords they come to your blog after searching, what landing pages they hit on your blog etc. You get 7 days of analysis for free and can upgrade to get 30 days (still for free).
• Comparative analysis of how much traffic is coming to your site from SE’s vs referral/bookmarks/type ins
• Latest Search Terms - the most recent phrases that people came searching for
• Top Landing Pages - the most popular landing pages on your blog and how many visitors they’ve had in the last 7 days
• Top Search Terms - a list of terms that people used to come to your blog searching for with how many visitors used them
• Top Key Words - a list of single words and how many people used them (you can also get this presented as a tag view)
• Search Engines - a list of which search engines sent the traffic and how many people used them (also what percentage of all SE traffic they made up)
This tools work much more like Google’s analytics, difference is I can see all the search engines traffic analysis, not only Google. Alternatively if you have access to your web server you can see the details in webalizer, but you won’t see the keyword analysis in that case.
