Getting better at understanding customers from analytics data

Data analysis, in particular drawing conclusions from Google Analytics data, is a weakness for me that I would like to fill in.

These are the sort of things I have in mind:

  • Determining the paths users takes through my website
  • Getting insights into why a user is converting or not converting
  • Using data from Analytics to help build buyer profiles

I have a decent understanding of Analytics but using it to answer questions about customers is something I just haven't got to grips with yet.

Are there any tutorials or resources you can recommend to help me get started? Or any tips/thoughts on this topic? How do you all use Analytics to understand your users?

Sorry if my question is a bit vague, it is something I'm still trying to get clear on in my own head. All comments appreciated.

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Clients site has a weird issue with 302 redirects that I haven't seen before.

Site is in Drupal, hosted on Amazon CDN & Cloudflare. So here's a quick breakdown: The site itself works normally. It's a bit dated, but you can click on links and navigate around as you'd expect. Seeing no obvious issues, I run a Screaming Frog crawl to begin my audit. Only 5 pages were picked up by the crawl which was super weird, since all internal links are regular html and there shouldn't be any issues. So I go through the site and manually collect a bunch of URLs, which I submit to SF again as a list. Every single link bar the 5 originally crawled return a 302, with the 'redirect' pointing back to the home page. Except as I said, those pages don't browser redirect. Browser side, they work fine. I guess they redirect the crawl bot though, since the rest of the site is functionally invisible. Other tools I've looked at say that the pages return simultaneous 302 and 200s, which doesn't make too much sense. These 302s are also old enough ...
