Thread: Wordpress Search Help

Hi,

Ok this is another dummy me question. On my blog I have a search box. I see this on lost of blogs.

My questions is this where in the admin do I find what people have searched the blog for? Also like how many times a certain word is searched for?

Thanks in Advance

you can't do that in WordPress.

However, if you have Google Analytics script installed, you can track all search queries and everything related to them (how many times search was used, which pages, top queries etc)

all you have to do is, select a website profile and edit it

1. Edit Main Website Profile Information
2. Scroll down to "Site Search"
3. click the "Do Track Site Search" radio button
4. Add "s" as query parameter
5. edit any other options as you please

that's all! save the changes and keep track of the data in the website reports > Content > Site Search

Hi,

Thanks Just my luck. Will not give up. Thought it might be a plug in or something.

but Google Analytics is so easy to install and it's free! why don't just use it? and if you need any technical help you can ask me
