Adding google analytics code
i have just gone adding google analytics global site tag to all in one seo and if you click on general settings then click on the webmasters tools tab
and copy the whole of the google tag and paste it into the Miscellaneous Verification box and click save
this will then have added google analytics verification to your site
you can check this by clicking on visit site ( hover over the name of
your site at the top and click on visit site - once your home page is
shown then press ctrl+u and another tab will open with your site html
click ctrl+f and type into the box Global site tag and it will find your code added
there is now no verify to check the code is added in google analytics.
or the alternative is to add it as per my other training
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/google-verification...
another method of verification is to use
gachecker.com
i know it does not have the https but it is just scanning your site and will tell you is your analytics is on every page
want a simple no fuss or pressure seo plugin then why not try out slim seo
with this one you get the old features of all in one seo back - simplicity
you can add verification to your head section along with ethe body and footer ( amazon one link)
and one feature i have not seen anywhere else is that it automatically fills on the alt text with hte filename if you don't add alt text manually - so make sure the filenames make sense - but now the amazon images and other images for advertising will all have their alt text filled in....
so as i said if you want a no nonsense seo plugin where you do hte work and are not told you only have a 50% seo score and not enough link words then try slim seo....
have fun
I do have a question though. Ever since I reset this new AIOSEO plugin my Google analytics hasn't worked. It may be coincidence, but is it possible that this new AIOSEO had messed with that? I'm not technical mined at all, so I'm not sure how I even check of find out. Would like to know your thoughts or possibly what I should do?
Thanks :-)
thanks for the training. I needed it. One thing I'm unsure about is when you are verifying your bing, pinterest and google analytics. I've already done all of this in my old AIOSEO. Do we need to do it all again? If so, I'm not sure where I can even get this code from because all of those sites have already been verified a long time ago, and it looks to me like you have to verify again to get the code, which it doesn't let you do if you've already done it once.
Thanks :-)
I have some articles I want to change from review to no review post, and I keep unclicking the plugin on the right side of the post underneath the al in one SEO plugin, but when I go back to the post-it seems to jump back to being a review post again?
Any idea how the correct way is to switch the plugin on or off for the particular post?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

This is really helpful. I'm hoping you can clear up something that's confusing me... What exactly is the purpose of the focus keyphrase? If I don't add one for a post, will it negatively affect the post's position in search results? If so, can/should the focus keyphrase be the same as the keyword for the post? I heard you say at the end that AIO has done away with keywords. I assume that applies only to new posts, because I still see them for my existing posts. For new posts going forward, though, should we basically think of the focus keyphrase the same way as we previously thought of the keyword?
Thanks,

Thank you for this tutorial.
If I choose the Post Excerpt to show up in my Meta Description, it doesn't have any characters. I assume I need to pre-set it up somewhere?
