Just Search’s Neil Walker is SEO Mad

It often easy to just take certain things for Granted, such things as Google Analytics. I’ve been using Google Analytics for years since it first migrated from the Urchin platform however it often easy to take for granted how much you use and you knowledge around the subject.

Recently I thought I’d give myself a recap and it funny how a number of new features have been added to Google Analytics which you forget or don’t use.

So my task over the past week was going through the Google analytic conversion university information and then taking the test.

So about 10:30pm UK time I passed the test, always a good reassurance that you do actually know how to use the platform and not just talk about that you use it.

If you interested in doing the test your self, I suggest firstly reviewing the information at the Google analytic conversion university and then when your happy take the test.

Well it’s been a hectic few months and so a good 6 weeks since I’ve last posted on “SEO Mad“.

First of all - Happy New Year!

I’ve got a tonne of posts in my drafts so expect a flurry of articles over the next week or so but keeping on the festive note it’s time again for Manchester SEO.

Looking forward to 2010, cheers Neil

Further on from my post last month about duplicate content on Linkedin and came across it again today, what become frustrating is that they have decided to make some geographic refernces to the people on linkedin and so I came across my profile page as:

• http://uk.linkedin.com/in/internetmarketingoptimisation

However I link to the following from my blog:

• http://www.linkedin.com/in/internetmarketingoptimisation

And the final URL I discovered mentiomned in my last post was:

• http://www.linkedin.com/pub/neil-walker/4/41a/793

This now 301 redirects to my main profile page of: http://www.linkedin.com/in/internetmarketingoptimisation. So kudos for fixing that error linkedin, hopefull you can explain what is going on with the next change.
