Why Is Google Webmaster Tools Pulling Zero Keyword Data?
-
I just linked a Google Webmaster Tools account to Google Analytics for a client, and Search Engine Optimization reports are showing up in Google Analytics as enabled, but there is zero keyword data, landing page data, etc., in the reports themselves.
Has anyone encountered this?
-
Patrick: thanks so much for your help on this. I just wanted to circle back to tell you that the problem is now resolved. The site is "https://www.", and GWT was first setup as "http://" and then just "http://www." and both of those do a 301-redirect to "https://www." So in any case, adding a third Google Webmaster Tools account for the secure version of the URL seems to have cleared up the problem and unlocked the keyword query data.
-
I just realized that the "http://www." version of the website (which is setup in WMT is coming up as redirected to "https://www." I just added another WMT and verified ownership, and I'm wondering if this could solve the problem...so far no data, but at least I'm getting a message that WMT is in the process of gathering data for the account...
-
Okay - 99.9% sure that is your issue - make sure your WMT is properly implemented on your site - everything should fall into place then.
-
No, it is blank there too...Very strange.
-
When you login to WMT is there data populating?
-
Yes, totally empty of data.
-
Hi there
Nothing is coming through at all still? Is the Webmaster Tools data populating in it's profile?
Double check and make sure that you are connecting the right WMT account. I know this seems redundant, but I can't help that something isn't properly implemented somewhere - that's not a knock at all by the way, these things happen.
Let me know!
-
Thank you Patrick! Still no luck, but I'm reviewing my options and following your suggestions! Right now, this situation is frustrating all my attempts to fix it...

Hi there
I would make sure that your Webmaster Tools and Analytics is correctly configured and that you are the owner of the Webmaster Tools account to pass the data. I would also take a look at the Access Webmasters Tools data in Google Analytics Guide from Google.
Depending on when you connected the accounts, it could simply be a lag in data transferring. Give it some time. If it doesn't populate, I would check the resources above and make sure all of your bases are covered.
Let me know if this answers your questions - I would love to help! Good luck!

Keyword research
Do I understand it correctly ? Let's say my keyword is Piedmont bike tours. From what I understand I need to use synonyms of Piedmont bike tours that people would use to find my website such as bike trip in Piedmont or cycling vacation in Piedmont and then closely related phrases in my content which are not necessarily synonyms but that semantically related, correct ? Do I need to do that for every topic that I decide to talk about on my webpage. For example let's say another topic I have decided to talk about on my page about Piedmont bike tour is Barolo. Do I need to do the same process for Barolo ? Thank you,

H1 tags and keywords for subpages, is it best practice to reuse the keywords?
So let's say I have a parent page for shoes, and I have subpages for dress shoes, work shoes, play shoes, then inside each of those pages I have dress shoe cleaning, dress shoe repair, same for work and play shoes. Would it be ok to use h1 tags like this: Shoes > Dress Shoes > Dress Shoe Cleaning Dress Shoe Repair Work Shoes > Work Shoe Cleaning Work Shoe Repair Play Shoes > Play Shoe Cleaning Play Shoe Repair Would these be considered duplicate h1 tags since cleaning and repair are used for each subpage? In certain niche companies, it's rather difficult to use synonyms for keywords. Or is it ok to just keep things simple and use Shoes > Dress Shoes > Cleaning and so on? Especially since we have urls and breadcrumbs that are structured nicely using keywords, for this example both breadcrumbs and urls read like sitename.com/shoes/dress-shoes/cleaning. Any advice?

SEO Moz Keyword Ranking Tool
The SEO Moz keyword ranking tool is useful and fairly accurate but it would be more useful to know why the ranking changed. Can the tool provide any insight in this regard?
