You're welcome. Hope you found it useful.

You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. I think Screaming Frog has so many great little features it is probably hard even for them to let everyone know about them.

You are always welcome Brenda.

You are welcome. Thanks for watching!

Don't Microsoft forms live on Microsoft's domain? Kind of like Google Forms. If that is the case, you cannot track them.

Thanks for the feedback James. I appreciate it. And yeah, I'm terrible at making click bait thumbnail. 🤣🤣 Make sure you sign up for the email list. You might like the Slack group as well.

@@PamAnnMarketing you are welcome, and yes it really does.

It would be unnecessary. Links in a ToC are not going to have the same relevance signals from surrounding content as links within the content would.

@@TheSEOPub This makes sense, thank you!

@@jamesmckellop9810 You are quite welcome.

Ah I got it, blended data! :)

@@SarahBrogniez-o1j Yes.

Double check that your trigger has the correct form ID in it. That is the most common error I see. Then make sure you didn't include anything else in the trigger that is restricting it from firing like a specific page URL. Then check to see if you are using the "Check Validation" option. If you are, uncheck that. It will sometimes cause tags not to fire. Those are the first places I would look.

​@@TheSEOPub​really appreciate this reply!

You just use the reports in GA4. Once you are tracking form submissions as an event, they will show up there.

@@TheSEOPub dear please you guide us i did not get it.

@@user-pb1vs8cp9z Go to your Traffic Acquisition report in Google Analytics. Under Key Events, pull up the event you created to track form submissions.

Glad the video was helpful.

You're welcome.

Much appreciated!

You are quite welcome! Thanks for stopping by.

You are quite welcome. I hope you find it useful.

I would. Like I said, it also will count error form submissions if you don't.

Can't find it in Analytics? Is the tag firing in Google Tag Manager?

That's a great suggestion Adam and one I have done myself too. I definitely should have added that to the video.

You can test it, but check validation will often cause tracking errors and cause it to not track correctly. You may get an extra event here and there without it, but it shouldn't be that many unless your form is a confusing nightmare for visitors. If you feel you need to, under the Advanced Setting on the tag, you could set the Tag Firing Options to once per page.

Of course it does. Why wouldn't it? Reddit has only grown in popularity since this video was published.

Make sure you have the form ID variables turned on in GTM like I pointed out at 2:40 in the video. If you do, and it is still not showing a form ID, there may be an option in your form setup to assign a form ID to a form. If not, you need to pick something else unique about the form that is showing up such as the form class, form element, etc. and use that instead.

Sure. No problem.

You could probably create some kind of script that could do that within Wordpress. I don't think I would really trust ChatGPT to choose "better" keywords though.

Hello, would it be possible by using the make automation software that all the listings on my WordPress site be scanned and that all the bad keywords are automatically Change to good keywords

@@chrisder1814 I wouldn't do something like that. If you start auto swapping terms out of your content like that using automation, you could end up with a bunch of stuff that doesn't read correctly.

@@TheSEOPub I'm not sure I understand well since I don't speak English very well, is it possible to scan the listings of my WordPress site and So bad keywords are replaced by good ones? I thought it might be possible to do this thanks to Make? Otherwise I made a product catalog on Google sheet, should I make this change of keywords directly in Google sheet and then not port this product in WordPress I mean in the event that the first solution, scanning on my WordPress site, is not possible

@@chrisder1814 What keywords are you talking about? Keywords located where on a your site? What do you consider a "bad" keyword?

You can. I don't really use it for campaign management sort of things though. That I leave in Monday. It's more calendar management and scheduling daily tasks for me. You could certainly use it that way though.

Yeah, it looks like it will be a big improvement and may suffice for many people. It won't have the calendar blocking features, and like you mentioned it won't allow you to turn Slack messages to tasks or emails to tasks, etc.

I'm not seeing anything different. The most common reason for the form not submitting is not turning on the form elements as I show at 2:45 in the video. Also make sure you published the workspace to make it go live. Second most common reason is not having Tag Manager installed correctly on the page. I would go back and check those two things first.

Nope. I have 3 of them. 😉

@@TheSEOPub I heard the footsteps in the background and the noise sounded very familiar to me :-)

@@FrankBackofen-um9uo I edited out all the barking during this one, but yeah the footsteps were too much to keep up with.

I never tried it, but probably not. I think the only way to embed a Google Form is through an and to track what happens in an , you need to put Google Analytics onto the website the is coming from. If there is another way to embed a Google Form, then it might work.

I believe you could do that with either event tracking or custom variables, but I have never tried it. I also wouldn't recommend it. Depending what you are collecting (especially names and email addresses), some of it would likely be considered personal information and violate Google Analytics' terms of service. I'm not a lawyer, but part of the reason we have GA4 now instead of UA is because it is not collecting personal data like UA did.

@@TheSEOPub so the scenario is i am using google tag manager and google analytics with my angular app. There’s a form for which i have created custom events and variables that link my form. Whenever i submit my form the event is triggered and i am able to fetch the event details along with the information of the form in live. But When the event is 30 mins older the information disappears. However it still displays the count of event details so was hoping if this is possible.

@@fitncode I think you can do it with variables or with the event data. It's something I would have to play around with along with a web developer. It's similar to what you can do on the ecommerce side where you can push in data about what people bought, how much they spent, etc. Again, you would just have to be careful about what you are trying to push in there.

Then look for a different variable (form class, form element, etc.) or see if there are settings in whatever form you are using to change it. If not, if the form is just on one page, you can trigger it to fire on just that URL too.

Did you turn the variables on like I showed at 2:40 of the video? That would be the most obvious reason for them not showing up.

@@TheSEOPub Yes I have!. I have the Form ID variable, but at 7:06 you copy"fluentform_2" and on my tag manager the result is "", the same for Form Target. If you know the answer to fix it I would be grateful. Thanks for the reply!

@@ItsSilvaa There may be some setting in whatever forms you are using to give it a name and that will usually show up as the ID. If not, use some other unique identifier as I mentioned in the video. Class for example.

Did you make sure to submit the changes in GTM so the trigger is live?

You are quite welcome.

Lighthouse and Pagespeed Insights are going to give you basically the same data when it comes to speed. As for cleaning up a database, I'm talking about the MySQL database that Wordpress is running with on your server.

@@TheSEOPub got you, thank you Mike

You would have to talk to Screaming Frog Support about that: www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/support/. I've never had any such error. As for the JavaScript question, you can always just look at the code of the page.

You're welcome.

You are welcome Brenda.

Yep. And this example is just scratching the surface of what you can do.

You are welcome.

Yeah I imagine this wouldn't work for that, nor would just about any other tracking method. You would probably have to track it on the analytics account for the site you are pulling the iFrame from.

I don't see why you couldn't. It wouldn't be much different than how GA4 can track ecommerce sales.

Inside Google Analytics you can use one of the traffic sources reports or landing page report to get some ideas where they came from. You could also create custom reports for your needs.

@@TheSEOPub #next video idea. :)
