Very useful WordPress plugin to redirect with a “301 moved permanently” from one of your post to any url. I created a Wordpress page out of a post and I wanted to redirect everybody from the post to the the page. My first solution was to include a link to the page in the post but doing an automatic redirect is better as it allows to move the google pagerank from the post’s URL to the page URL

I’ve been using Google Analytics for a while in my site but haven’t look at the reports very closely. One thing is clear when took a look at the reports: most of the traffic come out of google searches.

Then I tried to find what exact search queries the users performs to find my site. The google analytics reports for this “search terms” is in my humble opinion a little bit difficult to find. But I found via this post that the report is located at All Reports -> Marketing Optimization -> Search Engine marketing -> Overall keyword Conversion.

Note that 80% of the searches are marked as “Other”. Only the top ten searches is shown.

If you don’t want to rely on Google Analytics to obtain this kind of stats. I recommend you either Counterize II or BDP Referral Tracker.
