Forums / Cotonti / Extensions / [Release] Google Hit Monster - Gtrack

Tracks your visitors coming from google. Adds perfect keywords to your page and forum. Plugin aims to increase your visitors while finding perfect keywords about your page content and add them on that page.



First of all, this plugin has nothing to do with trackbacks and have completely different goal. But I've built it using spartan's trackback function. It simply keeps track of your hits coming from google. Then collects keywords for pages and forums. If a required number of hit has been taken (which is I've chosen 3 for now) it shows on pages these keywords. Also it has a admin panel to keep an eye of your google hits easily and collectively.

It is always hard to find correct keywords (tags) about your article. Some people call this plugin as "hit monster". Because plugin aims to find perfect keywords about your page content and add them on that page. If your website is in second page of google search about a word, while adding that word to your page, your website will be listed topper.

When I test this plugin, it collected more than %98 of hits coming from google search. But as I have mostly google.com.tr hits, I couldn't test google.com hits enough. But it should work with all of google domains. I've seen some queries cannot be tracked (sed_referers cannot track them as well) and shows like hits are coming from google.com main page

Key features of Gtrack

Tracking your visitors coming from google.
Add perfect keywords to your page and forum.
Doesn't require core hack (but requires a new database table)

What is absent/missing

Well, while this is first release it has simple features right now. For example I said it adds keywords to your page, but it doesn't add, it just makes a database query and shows them on page. If you remove content from database table (by the way it requires a new table), it will not show keywords as well. Because of this I think about adding keywords to tags table if there is enough hits to page from a specific keyword.
