task Incorporating Google Webmaster Central's New Metrics
2010-11-09
Tweaked the custom web analytics dashboard that I deliver to my clients each month to take advantage of some recently added metrics in Google Webmaster Central (formerly Google Webmaster Tools). Specifically, the dashboard now includes the number of unique domains that link to the client's site, as well as the total number of inbound links and the total number of pages with at least one inbound link.
As an aside, the Google Webmaster Central interface is coming along, but Google could put a lot of work into its user interface. I think that design and development team should talk to their Google Analytics team. Or wait, maybe they should just merge the two systems! Wouldn't that be nice?
