How to track clics on Adwords ads from mobile devices

29/08/2010

Being able to track all clics from our Adwords campaigns is becoming more and more important, even when clics come from mobile devices.

A few months ago Google officially announced the launch of Adwords for mobiles, answering to the growing importance of mobile devices also amongst advertisers.

Now, advertisers will be able to display ads exclusively on mobile devices, create campaigns for them, and get separate performance reporting. If you prefer not to show your desktop ads on these phones, you can opt out and show ads only on desktop and laptop computers.

On this side it is also quite important to be able to track clics coming from Adwords ads displayed through mobile devices.

The ValueTrack It works both for search and display networks and it can be used to both automatically redirect traffic to a mobile-optimized version of your website http://www.yoururl.com/{ifmobile:movil}

On the other hand it can also be used to actually track down those clics, showing you url www.yoururl.com?type={ifmobile:telefono}

What is SEO flat site architecture

24/08/2010

Site architecture is quite of an important factor when it comes to code/architecture optimization and an overall crucial step in SEO.

This video from SEOmoz goes in deep with a few examples, so that you can get a real grip of page structure and architecture.

No matter how updated is your sitemap, a correct site architecture is the first step towards a site proper optimization. The video also mention the potential effects of this procedure on usability, keeping always content at a one-click distance from every page.

Content structure is a pretty invisible task in any SEO project but absolutely fundamental. I have always seen positive consequences anyway.

flat site architecture does not mean at all that you have to get rid of directories in URLs and these are my two cents to those articles. On the contrary, it is something to add to the click distancerelevancy distribution equation.
