Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I would argue that Amazon.com is probably one of the best sites on the web for SEO and they use Meta Keywords on every page. I have used them on our sites and seen no negative impacts either.

Meta keywords have never hurt any of our customer sites and can only help with other less known search engines. So I disagree with most here and say "keep them!"

We have a large consumer website with several sections that have navigation of several pages. How would I prevent the pages from getting duplicate content errors and how best would I handle SEO for these?

For example we have about 500 events with 20 events showing on each page. What is the best way to prevent all the subsequent navigation pages from getting a duplicate content and duplicate title error?

Ok. Shows 25 different domains.

But I still don't see 40 people from 25 different domains typing in 12 word phrases that match exactly (or in any order). Maybe certain people typed in one or two of these words and that gets counted as part of the 12 word phrase, but then that would be a bug in google analytics.

Something weird is going on, but not sure how to find out what.

In the data logs, I see bingbot.htm accessing /profile_1414-2006-Nord-Estate-Wines-Jonquil-Vineyards-Cabernet-Sauvignon.html as well as a few IPS from Google's Googlebot and facebookexternalhit

I think the valid people searching for this exact phrase "nord vineyards estate wines jonquil vineyards napa valley cabernet sauvignon 2006" should be 0 in google analytics instead of 40.

I think either bing, googlebot or facebook or possibly even Google site search (we use for searching internally on our site)  is making the results inaccurate for google analytics.

I've seen this before. I don't think it is just related to me either as I've seen similar issues on other people's websites (we host about 50 websites)

A content scraper would come from one IP address correct? In that case, Google analytics would only see this as one visit. Maybe I need to look in the raw log files to see what this actually is...

But this search phrase has 12 keywords. When I try google suggest has about 3-5 suggested phrase words, so I don't think it's google's "Search suggest".

I've seen this quite a bit on our site where a certain long phrase gets several visits on just one day. It is not just a one-off. I bet everyone has seen this to some extent.

| nord vineyards estate wines jonquil vineyards napa valley cabernet sauvignon 2006 | 40 | 3.40 | 00:00:24 | 90.00% | 0.00% |

This is a sample of an entry that got 40 visits to our website. Obviously 40 people didn't type the full phrase above.

Have others seen that google analytics organic search seems not accurate quite a bit of the time?

Does this mean people are typing segments of this and they group it together somehow?

I think there is some kind of bug in google analytics.

I meant an HTML sitemap.

Are you saying to exclude certain products from the sitemap that are not popular?

thanks!
