Week 15 - MKGT 3349 - Weebly

For this weeks blog post I decided to take advantage of what we learned in class and use it towards a presentation for another class. In professor Houlihans class we have a presentation on our made up business. For our prototype I decided to make a website off weebly and also use google adwords for our project. I did not connect google with the website on weebly, but I decided to use the website I made for this class, and tailored it towards our company and service we theoretically provide. I do not know why, but for some reason if i am not in the edit section of weebly, it will not show my entire website through a preview, or through that link. Thus, bellow I have attached photos that display the website. I also used the contact form on the website. Thanks again for this wonderful semester. I truly am grateful for this class because I had no prior knowledge on search engine marketing. Hope you have a great winter break. Happy Holidays!

Sincerely,
Rayhaan

MKTG 3345 - Week 11 - Referral Spam!

Image
In Google Analytics this week we went over the concept of referral spam. This is a concept that is directly associated with website traffic. What referral spam consists of is fake traffic to a website by a bot. It is a hit generated by a program or bot instead of a real human who interacted with your site.  These fake referring key words, domains, and events pollute site analytics with wrong data. This includes fake page views, organic traffic, and virtual page views. Referral  spam puts data security at risk.  How one can avoid Referral spam is through blocking URL's, custom filters etc. Blocking the referrer used by spam bot, block the IP address used by bot, block the IP address range being used, block the user agents that were used, and block the spam referrer through custom advanced filter. What I thought was cool is that Google analytics has a bot filtering feature .

MKTG 3345 - Week 8 - Search Traffic

Image
For the 8th week of class, we were assigned to look into how much traffic comes to the website through organic searches. As I stated in an earlier blog post, an organic search is when users search up specific words on google and shows up as an unpaid organic result (not advertised to come up on top searches). TO get a better understanding of search traffic, I went into the acquisition overview. After that I set the date range from January 1st to March 7th and I came to this conclusion.  Based off of this one can see that organic search users were made up of 38.3% of the traffic for the website. Direct searches on the other hand was higher at 56.6 percent. Direct searches are when someone uses a link and it directly takes them to the landing page of the website. Thus, Social and referral traffic make up the rest of the data. Organic search had a total of 88 users and direct searches had a total of 125 users. As seen above, Google gives us results that also show the lo...

MKTG 3345 - Week 6 - Organic Searches

Image
There are many different ways one can navigate their way into making it to your website. If one is familiar with your company and website and knows the URL they can submit it manually. It can also be copied and pasted to the URL page. The link and URL can also be sent via message and clicked on, which will take the individual directly to your landing page. Another way the website can be found is via Google Search. This is best for client generation. Usually when someone searches something up the first two links are usually advertisements and the rest are organic. To see where the traffic from a website is coming from using Google Analytics, all you got to do is click the search box and type in acquisition overview. After that, the report will show all the traffic and where it came from is also seen there. Based on the image above, it is visible that most of the people who came to the website were from direct search. This means that the people clicked on a link that directly t...
