Thanks, trying this out now. Will be interesting to see how many terms coincide with those provided by the WP-GotLucky plugin (google only). btw, your notify me of replies text within the comments area is cut off – all I can see is
notify

and then nothing.

hi chris, thanks for the info. i have to keep reminding my self to check how the blog design was displayed without login in to see this kind of flaw hihihi…

Chris Merriman

np. I know what you mean re. checking the layout of a blog when you’re not logged in etc. – I just checked mine yesterday, from FireFox in Linux, and a graphic appeared that I’ve not seen in Windows browsers for months. Most strange :)
btw, I wasn’t able to find your plugin from within the dashboard install new plugin search (had to install manually) – is it uploaded to the wordpress plugin repository OK, or is it just the normal problem of their search not working brilliantly?

Is there any way to show how many referring pageview traffic each keyword brought? So like can you add a hit counter for a keyword in the links title tag?
Does that make sense?

Hi Ken, yes, I got the point, maybe I’ll dwelve into it in the later update.

OK, discovered that auto-insertion of required script doesn’t seem to work on my blog. I’m running WordPress 2.8, and using v2.5 of the xMark theme.
Could you give me a quick clue as to which file and where roughly I should insert it manually, so all posts are covered? Sorry for the newbie question.
(I double checked that auto-insert wasn’t working by searching for a phrase on google, visiting the result linked to, and then repeating the process after adding the code to that specific post only (I use ExecPHP), only on the second attempt was I shown how people had arrived there.)

Another quick heads up – the link for this page within Dashboard Plugin Area in WP leads to http://exclusivewordpress.com/search-term-tagging-2-wordpress-plugin/ NOT http://exclusivewordpress.com/searchterms-tagging-2-plugin/


Avatar
Chris Merriman

OK, ignore the previous request re. where to insert the code. I’ve still no idea why my theme doesn’t want to play ball with your plugin, but I added the script to single.php, after the section that deals with tags, and before comments are handled. (Well actually between the ShareThis call and the Related Posts call, but I don’t know if everyone else has the same setup, so thought I’d generalise a little.)
Another thought for you, in terms of auto-insertion for people with friendlier themes – category and tag archives often turn up as a result in Google for my site – worth auto-inserting appropriate code for this scenario, if that isn’t already done?

hi chris, the search term tags will not displayed until there are any visitor coming from search engine into that blog post, until then, it’s still invisible.

no, the plugin will not auto insert category and tags, its can be easily coded but I think auto inserting many tags and category is not a good move.

for the latest version of the plugin, I add a counter to get the popularity of each search terms, so we will get x most popular search terms as our additional internal linking to the blog post.


Avatar
Chris Merriman

Hi poer, I think either I wasn’t very clear a couple of comments ago, or you mis-read me :)

I understand that nothing is displayed until a visitor actual arrives with a referring url from a search engine. My point was that auto-insertion of the script seemed to fail with my theme (xMark). “”(I double checked that auto-insert wasn’t working by searching for a phrase on google, visiting the result linked to, and then repeating the process after ///MANUALLY/// adding the code to that specific post only (I use ExecPHP), only on the second attempt was I shown how people had arrived there.)”"

Again to clarify another point, with category and tags, I was referring to the possibility of inserting the code into category and tag archive pages, when they specifically turn up as a result from Google et al. If you understood that already, could you explain why it isn’t a good move? Not actually disagreeing, I just want to better understand what you mean.

Final suggestion for now – possibly have an internal (as in only displayed with the dashboard somewhere) list of posts/pages etc. that have results on them, or an RSS feed, so we can tell at a glance which posts are getting the most SE based traffic.
Ahhh, scratch that last request, I’ve just upgraded to the latest version of your fine plugin and see something is already in place. Would it be difficult to add a counter to this list of most popular search terms, so we can see how many people actually arrived from each search term?


Avatar
Poer

hi chris, i’ll re-check the wp filter I use to add the list after wp content.

for category and tags, if we add the category automatically, we will have thousands of category. adding tag automatically is more feasible for me, and in fact, i already use it in few of my (auto) blog. but i only add max 8 tags, because tag will be use by all in one seo pack plugin as keywords, and i don’t wanna have more than 8 keywords in my meta keywords.

for your last suggestion, its already implemented. but you need to enable show count option in the new stt2 admin page before you can see how many people use each term :D


Avatar
Poer

wuahhhh, sorry chris, i just re read your comments and just realize one thing. you need the search term can be placed in category and archive page? hihihi… sorry, i think you need to add the search terms as category name and tags name for the post :D

meanwhile, this plugin only record visitor coming to single post, i’ll add the possibility to record visitor coming to page and archive page in the next plugin update. thanks for the idea.

Permisi numpang tanya, saya ada kesulitan nih untuk insert code dengan cara manual. Saya dah coba pake yang auto insert dan berhasil, incoming search terms nya nongol tepat di bawah postingan. Nah saya mencoba disable auto insert nya lalu mencoba taruh di dalam single.php. Tetapi incoming search nya tidak kluar sama sekali. Mengapa yah ?

kode yg di insert ke single.php udah seperti ini mas?

<?php if(function_exists(’stt_terms_list’)) echo stt_terms_list() ;?>

Sudah saya lakukan, saya coba edit code php pd baris 466 menjadi $permalink = get_bloginfo(‘url’).’/info/’.urlencode(strtolower($term->meta_value)); untuk mengarahkan hasillnya ke permalink search yg telah saya rubah.

Saya juga telah mengedit baris ke 473 menjadi: $toReturn .= $options['before_keyword'].”meta_value\”>$term->meta_value“;

jika pd theme saya saya pasang code: sih ok ok aja, tapi ketika saya memasang code: hasilnya akan error karena urlnya mejadi domainsaya.com/info/katakunci.html.html

untuk stt2 v1.0, cukup edit baris ke 468

dan ubah menjadi:

$permalink = get_bloginfo('url').'/info/'.urlencode(strtolower($term->meta_value)).'.html';

Any chance we could have an option to choose whether we want search terms removed from the database after 30 days? I can see why it helps to keep the size down, but I’d like to either have an on/off option, or perhaps be able to select longer periods before deletion automatically occurs?


Avatar
Poer

@Chris » yes Chris, I’ll add the option later :P Meanwhile, you can extend the expire length by editing the plugin manually on line 23, and change 30 into any number of days.

$sql = 'DELETE FROM '.$wpdb->prefix.'stt2_meta WHERE date(last_modified) < date(now()-interval 30 day);';

ex: 100?????????, ???????????????4 and ????? ???????? rom

Why i have all this question marks?


Avatar
Chris Merriman

Mr RAR Downloads, is it possible that your WordPress database tables are encoded in something other than unicode? If so, any search terms involving foreign characters could lead to that problem. As an example, I am unable to display Cyrillic characters on my site due to a similar problem.


Avatar
Poer

@RAR: it’s mean the keywords use by visitor is using non ascii character, please make sure your database table and your page are in unicode/utf-8 format or any format capable of handling those characters.

i dont even think this keyword stuffing penalty is so true as you stated. a couple of competitors of ours have this plugin and they have around 40 keywords per article. They still rank well after months!!!

I wanted to ask. my blog has double its traffic…from 2000 to 4000 google visitors. However today the traffic seems to be low.

Is this a normal fluctuation? do you think that the traffic will go back (kind of bounce effect) or the traffic will stabilze….i really do not know what to think of what i am experiencing! pls HELP!
