About Google Analytics
What I am talking about is Google Analytics code available freely from Google , but for that you need to have a Google Account (free right now).So I am going to write something about the analytics code today as I know many of you have read dozens of articles about them and still if one or two articles come along you can give your valuable time to that. ![]()
Starting off with Analytics , as it seems to me Analytics is made up of two words Analysis + Statistics which make it Analytics. So why did Google start Analytics when there were many out there present in the market giving out free service + paid service as well. Statscounter.com free service is used where websites have pageviews less than 250K per month and when it comes to tracking they have done a great job in tracking each detailed page views.
So as I was writing about the Analytics what is analytics and why do we need to track the Page Visits ? The answer is pretty simple when you do not know about your visitors then how can you update your site with content that can be viewed globally. You might think that your visitors come from your own country but when you have launched a website and it is coming in search terms then your website is bound to be visited from global IP’s and computers. By the usage of Google Analytics you can easily track the visits which your site got. The chapter of Urchin is very long just because it is not very easy to post in a single post about all of analytics code and its details. I would love to break it into many parts and then post it along.
The parts would be like this
- Some details about urchintracker
- Google Analytics Code Implementation
- Plugins that can be used to track Google Analytics
- Benefits of Google Analytics Code
I would be posting some more stuff very soon . Just stay in touch.

Pages Indexing
As soon as you buy a domain you try to update that particular domain with some sort of content and then try to search Google for your domain name. This is the case with me , I do not know whether you do it or not, but recently I got a domain and then pointed that domain to my hosting server and because of some work I had to leave my PC and go to market. I closed my PC without thinking of that particular domain and closed my Firefox as well. When I came back from Market I opened up my PC but then I forgot my domain and started working on other thing. Some days ago I saw one page on the desk where I noted my domains and then remembered that I have not even properly set up my domain.
It was pointing to the hosting server but still no page was uploaded and nothing was done . Suddenly I had an idea to search my domain on Google. The Google was showing a simple thing Error 403 which was Forbidden as No one is permitted to see the directories on the server.Screen Shot below

This was one day ago but when I thought to get my page indexed into Google I just did some of the below mentioned things
- Created some pages of content (Take some templates Available Freely on Internet.)
- Tag the domain to various bookmarking sites (This helps in getting pages indexed more faster as Google or Search Engines whenever pinged by Bookmarking sites index them so chances are great that link will be followed from the sites.)
- Submission to some forums , directories and even some top ranked Blogs with the same niche(Be cautious here as you will get immediate traffic from comments on High Page Rank blogs but if your page does not have anything you will never be visited again)
- One of the fastest means of getting pages indexed in Google is XML sitemap if you do not have Wordpress , you can not use plugins but if you do have static pages as well but are linked to each other in a specific manner then you can use this to get Sitemaps for your sites.
- Again one of the other method to get indexed in Google is Usage of Analytics , Adsense , Adwords , these are some of the services which you are well aware of so no need to tell about it.
This is how your domain can get indexed into Google very quickly, if you need more and more pages getting indexed into Google then follow this step,
Install Wordpress on your website, Add a RSS feed scraper, Take Feeds available on the internet (make Sure you do not use any Copyrighted Feed) , the free feeds are those of news websites but there is a problem in feeds of news websites and other websites that they do not offer complete feeds in RSS. Do not mind add feeds and let them run for one day or two and make sure your blog is pinging Major RPC servers otherwise your site might not be indexed, you will see the difference when you search with “site:yourdomain” the Giant will show you number of pages your sites has got indexed into the search. This will also give you some traffic from Search Engines.
How am I telling this ?
Straight forward I used a domain for the same thing , and within a week I got more than 300 pages indexed into Google. But you have to sure as excessive Pinging to RPC servers like Pingomatic will ban your website. So use with caution of getting Banned.
Do You need BlogRush
I signed up with Blogrush in September for one of my blog’s when Blogrush was a source of free Traffic and was being promoted on many Blog’s such as the Big’s like John Chow and many other’s as well. Three days ago when I added this Blog to Blogrush it seemed as if I was getting daily hits and my credits in Blogrush were increasing but none of my post got syndicated across the network of bloggers , meaning that my headlines were so Bad that they were not even able to make it to network and as I think they are a waste of time as of now.
Since 3 days I get lots of traffic from Entrecard( They come for dropping of cards only ) but still I am getting popular in Entrecard and so From tomorrow I will bid adieu to Blogrush and will start Blogging seriously as till today I was Blogging only for fun but as Joetech.com (Our First Sponsor) showed interest in advertising on our Blog we promise we will not disappoint him with the advertising he has done . Well as of today Blogrush would not be seen in our Blog Too (As in John Cow’s Blog it is not anymore). And yes those keen on advertising my Blog should contact me as soon as possible or Purchase the 125 X 125 banner to get noticed as this site has started getting traffic. So Blog Rush Bye Bye on this Blog and meet you on some other blog some other time.
And Yes you can see a New Banner which is 125 X125 running as of today because Matt From Contest beat won our first prize of 750 Entrecard credits and those credits have been sent to him. Check with him and of course the contest for next week is still Running.
And the Winner is
Guys in the previous post I did mention that the contest was over and yes it is over and the Winner is Matt From Contest Beat . I must congratulate you Matt you won 750 Entrecard Credits from Johny Cow in my First contest. Why did he get this much advantage in the win because he posted about the contest on his Blog which entitled him for 3 credits and then by Dropping the card entitled him with four Credits. I have not yet set up the email Subscription so I do not know exactly how many people signed up for Rss , as till yesterday I was using Feeds burned by Bidvertiser but then I thought when the blog is new how much feeds can give me money. So as of Now i have dumped them.
So Matt for claiming your Prize you need to send me some details like
- Your Entrecard.com Login email to which 750 Entre Card Credits have to be sent.
- A 125 X 125 Banner of your site which will be run on my site for a week.
