Coding Boldly Go Blue for Google Analytics

Well, I got the script posted. And I found it on view source. I’m indexed in Google so most everything is working. I fervently await for the flat line in Analytics to show some blips — then I will be most happy.

I don’t know how a child gets its functionality from the parent. The concept to a man my age is miraculous. My parents died years ago, but I suppose I have some of their “functionality” in me. Perhaps one day I will understand.

I am indeed most happy. The graph line in Analytics shows five blips this morning and 19 visits. So, thanks again to Crouching Bruin, mardesco and esmi. I admit that I nearly quit, even to considering finding an alternative to Google Analytics, and all of it was due to frustration.

And so, to all members out there, especially my fellow novices, do not despair. Believe me, if I can do these things, so can you. Not, however, without the help of all these volunteers. You are super people. I like Boldly Go Blue very much. I also like a discontinued theme called Motion which I hope will be updated and kept in the repository. I’ve been with it for over two years.

Perhaps one day I’ll be able to help others as the WP Team has helped me.

Go boldly, everyone, and seek out new adventures.

Me Again. Can you tell me where I insert keywords in Boldly Go Blue. I find no way under Genera, Writing or Reading. Thanks.

Are you trying to create a “keywords” meta tag? It probably has little or no SEO value these days, but you can create one using the Headers and Footers plugin that CrouchingBruin recommended.

My suggestion would be to install a plugin such as “WordPress SEO by Yoast” which has a handy keyword density analysis feature and many other useful tools as well.

In my first blog I recall typing in keywords. I think it was under General, Wriing or Reading. I have not done that for this new site. I just thought it was necessary to enter the list. I have an SEO Plug In waiting for me to set it. This will take some study as I know little about SEO.

This is a new subject. We have another website(Dreamweaver). What would we have to do to integrate IncLinkPros( this WP site) into that site to maximize SEO if possible? I thought about adding my new blog to a link bar on the old site, but don’t think that will work.

Hello PHX242,
The short answer is yes, you could install WordPress in a subdirectory of your other site, post all your content there, add a “blog” link to your existing site’s navigation, and even point your new domain’s DNS to the blog directory on the old site. Integrating a link from your blog subdirectory back to the main site would simply require you to hard-code the links in your WordPress nav menus. Of course, the main site and the blog directory would not have the same visual design. Whether you would get a significant SEO benefit from a setup like this depends on your implementation and many other factors.

Generally, we encourage folks to stick to one topic per support thread, as much as possible. I’m marking this thread resolved. If you have any other questions, please feel welcome to open a new support topic. Thank you!
