We’re happy to announce the release of Logaholic version 2.0.2. Beside some bug fixes and improvements, this version includes two brand new reports; Internal Site Search and a Google ‘Ranking’ report.

A hidden gem: Internal Site Search Keyword Statistics

The use of on-site search tools in on the rise. If you offer your visitors a tool to search your site, you can now more easily isolate the keywords from that search tool in Logaholic and display the internal search stats.

This is especially valuable because this reveals the ‘intent’ of your visitor much better than a page view ever can. Since the visitor is already on your site when they perform the search, these keywords can tell you what visitors wanted from your website specifically. This is valuable data that you can use to improve your site, in giving visitors what they want.

Google Ranking

We’ve also added a report that will show you on which Google search result page your website was listed when a visitor used a certain keyword to find it.

This is not as elaborate as the fancy Position Analyzers out there though, it’s pretty simple. It does not give you the exact search result position for your website, but it will show you on which search result page your site was found – first, second, third result page etc.

Using the date range selector you can see if the search engine listings for your keywords are improving or not. You can also easily spot good keywords that could be improved to bring in more traffic.
