For owner of the website there are a lot of tools to monitor developments on the site and adjust various parameters of monitoring to a greater or lesser extent. But this in itself is not enough to ensure an acceptable presence in the world of the Internet if they do not declare to the sites of various type like catalog (www.hr, T-com ...) directly on the viewfinder (Google, Yahoo, Bing ...) and offer a coupling to major institutions or better sites to exchange ads (banner). In this sense, can be defined by three sources to arrive at the site (Traffic Sources):

  • Direct traffic

  • Referring sites

  • Search engines

The direct approach is based on an approach that visitors are made from their browser using a personal directory (bookmark) in which the address of the set obtained in any way (search, mail, through forums and the like). These are most likely the viewers who have loved the site facilities and wants to quickly retrieve.

Address of the site at reference sites coming logging by the owners of the site, such as a sign of the already mentioned catalogs, or coupling are on other sites that their users are set up because like content. In both cases the impact on coupling is set outside to power the website owner. To set up the Internet other participants coupling according to your site, the site needs to contain them interesting content, which is directly related to the quality of content, design and organization of site.

When the website application to the viewfinder, and if it is taken into account the significance of the title of each website, the page description, the selection of keywords and the content of certain pages of site, the algorithm performs a search engine indexing individual pages of site to previously these features and compares them with the passage of time the number of visits from the previously mentioned sources and ranks. If visit come to you with the highly-rated reference site, rise the significance of your site, and therefore the position in the list that is provided when searching by search engines.

In the spirit of the content of the previous page's earnings can be seen how high the importance of registration to catalogs, especially in the catalogs in the site as written in several languages. Thus, the claim that until success comes slowly and patiently, as stated on the previous page is true. The speed is not important neither at making little kids :-).

Besides the statistical tools that your own or you rented server, since our free service is Google's 'Webmaster Tools' and 'Analytics', which allows the owner of website to monitor developments concerning the content of which was placed on the site. Regardless of the membership is necessary for setting up Web content on the server, or from any of its institutions or leased resources, register a domain and execute:

  • Registration of site on the search engines
  • Verification of site on the search engines
  • Creating identification file of site for use of search engines
    (googleX......X.html, BingSiteAuth.xml ... files)
  • Creating map of files and folders at site (sitemap.xml file)
  • Defining rights of access for robots search (robots.txt file)
  • Set an image of the logo-site (favicon.ico file)
  • Rules to redirect and access rights to content (.htaccess file)
 

Little tiny self-promoters does not hurt. In the root directory of seat should be installed file 'favicon.ico' which is nothing more than a small thumbnail size 32x32px which can find plenty on various Internet sites, or with the tools for this purpose to create at will. This icon appears in front of the title of any website in Internet browser of visitors.

Verification of seat can be done in several ways, usually incompatible between different search engines, but since Google is 'law' for the last time, follow the instructions that Google requires. One way to verify the site is setting verification file in the root directory of site that has a name an content that Google takeover bid verification procedure, and has a name like 'googleXX....XX.html'. It should not change anything. Google uses a simple file verification for that specific to its identification number of the verification is in the file name and in the file content, i.e. in the file is the record:

 google-site-verification: googleXX....XX.html

File 'robots.txt' you can view by clicking icon on the first page of this site. File 'sitemap.xml' is normalized by all search engines, describes where to find a particular file of site, type .html or other kind and its content is of the form:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <urlset xmlns="https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
   <url>
      <loc>https://www.buzdo.com/</loc>
          :
      <loc>https://www.buzdo.com/file_name.htm</loc>
          :
      <loc>https://www.buzdo.com/folder_name/</loc>
          :
      <loc>https://www.buzdo.com/folder_name/file_name.htm</loc>
          :
   </url>
     :
   <url>
     :
   </url>
 </urlset>

Name of .xml file is arbitrary (first.xml; second.xml ...). Folder in the example file describes seat and is sufficient if it is a seat that is independent and has no subdirectories or subdomains. According to the above example can be defined <url>...</url> enter address of a file located in a subdirectory. It is important to pay attention to the initial directory and subdirectories do not label files if the approach to form a file with the default web server (index.html, default.html ...), because search engines will determine fault in the form of double reading content. In the manner described is not readable sitemap.xml that would placed into that folder. If using multiple subdirectories not efficient for write sitemap.xml subdirectories who voted for the subdomain, and repeat the same file in the list to sitemap.xml in directory domain. For this purpose the 'Sitemap Index' which is shown in the example on.

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <sitemapindex xmlns="https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
   <sitemap>
      <loc>sitemap.xml</loc>
   </sitemap>
       :        Definition of the folder if the content
       :        is sub-folder of domain.
   <sitemap>
      <loc>https://www.buzdo.com/blog/sitemap.xml</loc>
   </sitemap>
       :        Definition of the folder if the content
       :        is sub-domain of domain.
   <sitemap>
      <loc>https://blog.buzdo.com/sitemap.xml</loc>
   </sitemap>
       :
       :
   <sitemap>
       :
   </sitemap>
 </sitemapindex>

This index file indicates where to find sitemap.xml files; files of site or subdirectories or subdomains. No matter which way the use of search engines will read everything listed sitemap.xml file and display the result as a sum of their contents. Full coverage all of which may contain a 'sitemap.xml' file, can be found at https://www.sitemaps.org/, which is listed in the header of examples. The following figure shows that search engines are reported to two seats and that no indication is made where the file verification or file that describes the contents of seat, and that said verification required for any further action.

 Google Webmaster Tools - User sites

Figure 7.7.3b shows that it is possible to make a quick insight into five segments, which are exactly the site. When a user logs in this manner and to satisfy the verification procedure headquarters and registration content, followed by processing by Google, then you can get insights into individual menu items. However, to complement their views takes time because sometimes requires treatment over a month. The serious business of the rush was not a factor. 'Analytics' is not an integral part of the 'Google Webmaster Tools' and they should be interconnected. Available to the user web seats of statistical tools of website, of which the most important is the monitoring of access to the search engine bots of Google headquarters. Administrator of site may mistakenly deny access to the search engine bots of headquarters and the result may be that in the Internet world headquarters there. Google constantly improve their services, and the latest look slightly different page is displayed, but the actions that need to be done are the same, and further expanded the possibilities. If all of the above lapse correctly, after a few days it's possible to get reports showing how the next set of pictures related to one seat (the site) to the liking of the selected period.

 Google Analytics - All user accounts and sites

As Google constantly improves its products, options may differ from the currently displayed, but the essence of the display does not change. Each notified site describe a graph in the example shown in Figure 7.7.4b part of the events on the seat you are seeing is the beginning of 2007. year until early 2013. year. Help that Google offers for the understanding of the content is very high quality and on this page, no need to 'rewrite' made by them. But briefly, the menu on the left side of the picture 7.7.4b provides insight into what most visitors see, what kind of program support are used, from which countries and networks come and more, as to the editor is allowed to decide how to arrange the site, which pages to modify or add, in which resolution to design pages and the like. In Figure 7.7.4c shows the overview of the state from which site is visited, and Figure 7.7.4d shows the current state of site viewing in real time. For selected examples shown in Figures 7.7.4b, 7.7.4c and 7.7.4d shows that available a wealth of analysis. Many facilities are available for analyzing and understanding the instructions for their very thorough.

Improved sitemap.xml file except HTML content, and allows the insertion of images and video in the list as shown in the following example.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

New interface of 'Google Analytics' requires a new generation of Web browsers. How older versions of IE do not support all the new features should be used newer generation of browser, or IE extensions search engine site with 'Google Chrome Frame', a free plug-in for Internet Explorer versions 6, 7, 8 and 9 on Windows 7/Vista/XP SP2 or later versions. Some advanced web applications use 'Google Chrome Frame' for the user with additional features and better performance. Unfortunately, now Google does not develop this plugin, but still worth it it is useful if it is somewhere on the Internet can find.

The most interesting indicator of whether the other is the 'Bounce Rate'. It shows the extent to which the viewer is kept on studying the site / page before moving on to the next page of site. Experience says about the following:

  • BR > 75% - Site / page is very poor, should promptly
    make changes concerning the content and design.

  • 50% < BR < 75% - Site / page is not bad, but should
    put more innovation and effort to make it better.

  • 35% < BR < 50% - Site / page is very good,
    try to maintain this level of regular content updates.

  • BR < 35% - Genius at work.
 

Therefore, measures the percentage of clients visit Web sites and / or some of its pages. BR may be larger than life if the seat is intended for the small languages are spoken, as users from other language areas immediately leave the site. From the above it is clear that it is good to offer the same content in multiple languages, especially in English, if the primary interest is seat earnings. Such headquarters must have separate source folders (subdirectories) used are for each language, which, if necessary, can turn into subdomains with the corresponding name. On the first page of multilingual seat must be audible and visible language choice. For each baseline language folder or subdomain is made sitemap.xml. A good example is the site 'www.periodni.com'.

Similar offers described offers 'Etarget' team, members are mainly from Europe, but with the opportunities and tools for statistics can not be compared with Google. A slightly different way of ads offering 'Xclaim', in contrast to the above, works on the principle of marking key words within the text (contextual ads) and related messages comes in the form of a small pop-up ads. In the event that the selected advertising in many ways, should carefully read the license conditions for that do not come in 'conflict of interest' and lose some of the service providers, gained the confidence and the right to advertise is difficult to restore.
