“If you don’t rank high for your Brand terms, you are incompetent.” LOL.
Types of terms – Branding, Category, Generic, Virgin searches….if you convince me, I will go with you because I don’t know better. LOL.

1. Two problems, 2 solutions
- Pay attention to your head terms vs long tail keywords. Hire 1 intern per kw for your head terms. When it comes to your head terms, obsess efficiently they warn.
- He mentions the Keyword Position Report – This is the report that gives you kws and visits and it also shows you exactly the kw in which your ad appeared and how much that term contributed to sending users to your site. We are utilizing this same reports in place of standard WPG rankings for Google.
2. Apply Math
- Mine data. Go ahead. Select any kw and see kws with higher traffic or lesser traffic to keep your head focus.
- This report can also help you find trends.
3. Use multiple goals when measuring success
- Measuring outcome gives you a much broader value.
- Visitor Loyalty Report – See the number of times users return to your site
How do you Extend Google Analytics:

- Not just site numbers and %s anymore, but we can see raw numbers as well.
