How to find what visitors searched for?

[cjbay]

I get visitors on 2 names and no clicks and ive messed around with the keywords for awhile now. 1 is on sedo and the other is on bodis. For either of these 2, how can I find out what the people originally searched for that led to my pages??

I'm not sure you can.

It's one of my big bugbears about parked domains that I can't get the referrer information (including incoming searches), so I end up moving domains off parking & take a revenue hit just to get that information.

Here's one way to get search strings. Please note that there are others, but this one excludes bots and hot-linked pictures from the report.

• Sign up for Google Analytics
• Move the domains off parking & onto something where you can add in the analytics code. Make sure you add it to index.html (or whatever) & to your 404 error page. This is best if it's your own (paid) hosting. You can use something like 1 Plus, but it only generates pages for .html. Other extensions like .htm, .asp, .cfm, etc just give a blank page.
• Wait a couple of days
• Log into analytics & navigate to the keywords part of the traffic sources report.
• Move the domain back to paid parking with new keywords.
• Profit!!!

At least one parking company allows this to happen, although it's not published. If you are interested PM me.

Sign up for a trafficz account. They have pretty good traffic data. What keyword was searched, what country it came from ect.

They have pages you can add content on too.
