Hey guys,
I am reviewing the data of google analytics while I am a bit confused about " direct" and " referals", what's the difference, speaking of the audience sources?
hey hi Daisy ....
Excellent question and all questions as you know are good ones here ...
Yes, it takes a wee bit to learn everything about G.A. ... and actually, instead of me, possibly 'mangling the answer', Jay did up a month's series of webinars on this very topic .....
here's a link to reading the data .... it does come up now and then and keeping in mind, it's only meaningful if one's website is 'mature' and is presenting traffic ... if it's a beginning site, then, it's too early to be too concerned reading G.A. ...
enjoy it all .... you're doing great! .... all the best .... :) Reading the Data within Google Analytics
*** hi Tracey! .... you're most welcome and glad to know that you've derived some helpful benefit from the answer -- yes, lots of learning, to do, and to build here as well ....
enjoy it all, cheerio ... :) ***
I think it is a difference between those who came to your site through organic search and those who were referred to it from somewhere (WA, social, other sites, etc)
But, I'd also like to see an answer from someone more experienced and check whether I'm right or no.
Hi Daisy,
I found this article on the difference in traffic sources in google analytics. Hope it helps...

How can I review google analytics ?
Hey guys,
I am reviewing the data of google analytics while I am a bit confused about " direct" and " referals", what's the difference, speaking of the audience sources?
Hi Daisy,
Organic is pretty much someone typing your keyword into their search engine and finding your website.
Direct is a site that you are fimiliar with and use often, like Amazon. If the URL is hard to remember, like your patient portal for your medical data then you will have it bookmarked in your web browser.
Referral is getting to your final website destination indirectly, like by clicking on an external link from someone else's web site post.
Social is someone finding your site through one of the social channels.
All stuff I'm sure you are already quite familiar with. :-)

Hi guys,
Could you please enlight me on the following. How can I shoot a video, where I show the computer screen, and I appear on a small window on the side?
I know OBS Studio and ManyCam. For some reason, OBS studio is better than ManyCam. The free version of ManyCam will have its logo on your recorded screen.
You can use a green screen and change your background and have fun with their interface. I use them for teaching online. :)
I didn't try taking a video direct to the computer. I use my phone and video cam to take a video ever since. The things I am always out of data in my phone. So, I automatically save my video and picture to my computer and also to the USB flash drive for in case my computer crash.
In editing my video and pictures I use Filmora 9, Canva and HD Movie Maker -Pro. All of this editor I am still learning to make my video outstanding to the other video that I do have had film.
Regards,
Nila
i created training for obstudio basic setup
showing hte screen and a webcam image
its the one i goto when i need to do this
have fun
phil
i use a telephone headset as a mic
the audio is very important - youcan get away with slightly ropey video but the audio is very important...
so a lapel mic or similar and it all interates into obs studio
the main thing to remember about obs is that it is like a stack of paper - what is on top is on top - so you need you as a small window on top and then everything else under this...
If you are on a laptop, just talk to it. You can also use a cell phone but that would be much more difficult. If you are on a desktop, you’ll just have to buy a mic. If that is your situation, PM me and I’ll point you to a good cheap mic on Amazon.

Hi guys,
Today I set up the Youtube channel and watched the Jay's trainning in 2014. But it looks a bit outdated and the interface is different from what we have now in
Yes Daisy,

Hello
I have vidiq,
its a chrome extenetion free
also i use ubersuggest
Hope this helps
Pam
personally i would go for ubersuggest.io or keyword.io
they have specific tabs for youtube
i don't think jaaxy is optimized for youtube
the other way is use the autosuggest within yourube
knowing that the top autosuggest is the most popular...
good luck
phil
hi Daisy .... excellent question and of course, all questions are good ones here....
If i recall correctly, Jay mentioned something about an update soon ...
and YouTube works differently as far as success goes, it's the number of subscribers & views that are indicators of success there.... and here again, it's the level of engagement by an interested audience that counts ....
Suggest you try it out and see what happens....
all the best .... :)
Thank you for your advice.
We just want to try and see what will happen. For this, I am learning movie editing which is interesting.
Well, there are so many things to learn and prepare, such as collecting the background music, stock video, etc..
Also need to learn a lot of technical stuff, such as SEO, marketing, etc..
... yes, there's a ton of work in prepping for YouTube ... a techie friend of mine with whom we're working with ... we all looked at it and have yet to pick it up again ....
... need an A-team to get a good channel going ...
... all the best ... :)

Hi guys,
Recently I am working on the renovation of my website. I use Generate Press + Elementor. However, I cannot insert Elementor template. I guess the problem is the
Great question, Daisy. I use GeneratPress but haven´t started using Elementor yet even if I have it installed. It seems like you have gotten good answers to the question as well. I know what I have to do when I start using Elementor.

Elementor privides very nice page builder. You need to try and you site will look more vivid.
Thank you for your advice, Daisy. Started to play aorund a little bit with Elementor some minutes ago.

To update you need to write to support and ask them to to updated it. I have the same problem yesterday and they take care of it right away.

Dear all, anybody knows how to claim website on Pinterest if not using plugin of header and footer. I installed plugin of Ad Inserter?
Hey Daisy,
After trying EVERY "easy" way to verify my website with Pinterest, I ended up having to download their HTML file and up load that using FTP.
Am guessing the security on WA servers may be causing issues with the "easy" methods.
Hope you find this helpful.
you should be able to add it into the head section of ad inserter
with the provisio that it works - i have found another code that didn't work and i had to resort to adding headers and footers plugin as well
.apparently ad inserter may add a special character that some sites don't recognize.
or you could try adding just hte number to your all in one seo plugin
i hope you get it sorted
phil
Hi, I do not understand very well, all in one seo plugin, do you mean
Webmaster verification - Pinterest on verfification?
Hi, I claimed my website with Pinterest the other day. I did have some problems, won't go into it but eventually, it was claimed. That means that Pinterest analytics will be given now, correct?
However, I didn't add anything in the SEO All In One, as per the screenshot. Is that something I need to do also so that Google Analytics can also track what happens in Pinterest?
Can you clarify? Louise
once pinterest has verified your site, you don't need to add anything else to your site.
it is a bit like google, pinterest would get confused
so now you should get accurate reporting
have fun
