Novel Advanced Search Page of Google

Google advanced search is really advanced and I am sure it will entice you if you are a regular Google user.

It is more user friendly than the older advanced search page. The whole page is divided into 11 boxes with distinguished titles. There is a new box at the top of the page that shows the keywords, as you input information on the lower search box.

All the search boxes are divided under three headings. The first heading is “Find web pages that have.” There are 5 boxes under this heading in which you can stuff your specific keywords. You can put words or exact phrase.

The second heading is “But don’t show pages that have”. Here you can put the unwanted words.

Moreover, third heading is “Need more tools”. Here you can choose various options like results per pages, language and file type. The last box provides you an opportunity to do your search within a specific website or domain.

I don’t want to compare the new page with the older one but I want to say that the new one is crafted a bit differently and the wordings are more user-friendly.

Google Analytics: Sometimes it skip updating statistics of your website?

One service of Google which has proved itself one of the premier services is undoubtedly Google Analytics. This service has been redesigned so that the website owners learn even more about the activities of their website visitors. Since Google Analytics is free to all advertisers, publishers and website so they can learn easily how the visitors interact with their website.

The new Google Analytics makes it easy to improve the results of different websites online. Various website owners are utilizing it for this service only.

Now, Google analytics hardly fail to update the daily reports. But, sometimes it may happen that the statistics are present but they are just not being displayed for a particular date (say March 26, 2008) in the graph. If you highlight the previous day’s date you can see the numbers below the graph.

It is true, while the visitors graph seems a day behind but if you change the date in the date drop down to today, it will actually show the correct statistics in the detailed reports.

It happens sometimes. So don’t worry your Google analytics is working efficiently for you.

Google Benchmarking and how it can generate more traffic

So far, Google has launched various services under its three categories of products, i.e., desktop products, mobile products and online products. Now, under its online products it has a service by the name of benchmarking service. This is an optional Google Analytics service which shows how your website's statistics compare against other industry verticals.

In the beta version of this service you can compare your website's visits, webpage views, pages per visit, bounce rate, average time on site and new visits data against benchmark data from categories of other participating websites.

If you have such a data then you can easily understand where your website lacks in terms of content or services. You can use this data to gain broader context for your site so you can identify additional opportunities to improve your site's metrics.

You might be thinking that how can you enable the benchmarking. The process is simple and easy to understand. To enable the benchmarking service for your account, the Google must first opt in to share the account data in an anonymous and aggregated format. In order to do that select the option to share your Analytics data "Anonymously with Google and the benchmarking service" from the Edit Account and Data Sharing Settings page.

The Google takes up to two weeks for the benchmarking data to appear in your account. If you do not choose to share your Google Analytics data anonymously then benchmarking will not be enabled for your account.

So, if you are an advertiser, website or any company offering some services through the Internet the benchmarking can be of great help to you.
