What Is “(Not Provided)” in Organic Search Traffic Keywords on Google Analytics?
The basic answer is that the keywords surfers used to find this particular site were not shown because the searchers were logged into their Google account when conducting the search.
Google wants to further protect their users’ privacy by encrypting their search results pages (through https://www.google.com).

SEO Interview Question and Answer
1- What is the difference between on page seo and off
page seo?
On page seo means optimizing your
website and making changes on title, meta tags, site structure, site content,
solving canonicalization problem, managing robots.txt etc.
Off page optimization means
optimizing your web presence which involves backlink building and social media
promotion.
2- How
will you solve canonicalization issue or what is .htacess file?
.htacess file is used to solve the
canonicalization issue of a website. It may happen that the home page of the
site may take several urls like http://www.example.com or
http://www.example.com/index.html or http://example.com . The search engines
might treat these url as different and may divide the link juice gained by
having various backlinks made with any of these 3 urls. The link juice gets
divided between these three urls equally. .htacess file is created to have a
single url of the home page so that the link juice is passed onto single url.
3- What is keyword stemming?
It is the process of finding out the
root word from the search query. A query having the word “ playful” would be
broken down to the word “play” with the help of stemming algorithm. The search
results returned would be having the word ” play” in it.
4- What is LSI?
LSI stands for Latent Semantic
Indexing. It is a data retrieval technique which finds connection between words
and the use of synonyms while fetching data from the index.
5- What do you know about the Florida update?
Florida update happened on November
16th 2003. This update applied stemming, maintained local rank, penalized over
optimized sites by applying filter etc. In short, it modified the search
results before presenting it to the user by applying filters.
6- What are the limitations of title and description
tags?
Title tag can be between 66-70
characters and meta description tag can be between 160-170 characters.
7- Does Google uses keyword tags?
No, Google does not make use of
keyword tags.
8- What is 301 redirect?
It is a method of redirecting user
from the old page url to the new page url. 301 redirect is a permanent redirect
and is helpful in passing the link juice from the old url to the new url.
9- What was the recent update which Google had and
what changes would you suggest for it?
Google recently had the Penguin
update which was a measure to control web spam. Penguin update had penalized
websites which had a spammy backlinking profile and returned more semantic
results. Semantic results were based on the relationship between words present
on the search query. Penguin trusted sites that had original content, fresh
content, good social media presence and quality organic links.
10- What
do you understand by Cloaking?
Cloaking involves using deceptive
techniques which presents the user with a different version of the webpage than
that presented to the search engines.
11- What
tools do you use for doing seo?
I use Google webmaster tools, Google
Analytics, Open site explorer, Alexa, Website grader etc.
12- What
are your good qualities?
You will have to answer here about
your good qualities like- I am hardworking, sincere, punctual, love to accept
challenges etc.
13- What
is the difference between Seo and Sem?
Seo stands for Search Engine Optimization while Sem stands for Search Engine
Marketing. Seo provides organic traffic to a website with the help of search
engines while Sem involves the use of Google adwords and other paid channels of
advertising.
14- What
is PPC?
PPC
stands for Pay Per Click. It is a form of advertising methodology in which the
advertiser pays for every click on their ads. Google uses this form of
advertising in its channel of advertising called Adwords.
15- Which
is better Robots.txt or Meta Robots Tag?
Meta Robots tag is much better as it helps in forcing the search engine
crawlers not to index and display the hidden pages in your server.
16- Do
you use separate Seo strategies for Google,Yahoo and Bing?
Yes I use separate strategies for Google,Yahoo and other search engines.More
backlinks are required for Google .It pays more attention to backlinks and site
authority while Yahoo and Bing pays more attention to title and Meta tags.
Hence, a site takes time to rank on Google as compared to Yahoo and Bing.
17- How
will you increase the Pagerank of a page?
By building more backlinks from authority sites and high page rank webpages.
18- How
will you check the number of backlinks of your competitors site?
With the help of the link operator on Google and by using various external
tools like Alexa, Backlink Watch , Open Site Explorer, Backlink finder etc.
19- Which
is more important- Building backlinks to a website or building great content?
Both are important. Building great content is necessary as it is your first
step towards ranking ;and building backlinks helps to build authority to your
website and is an important metric for ranking well. Hence both should go
parallel and both are equally important.
20- Who
is Matt Cutts?
Matt Cutts is the head of Google's web spam team.
21- If
a website has a search engine saturation of 40% , what does that mean?
It means 40% of web pages from that particular website are indexed by the
search engine.
22- What
do you mean by anchor text?
Clickable text written on an hyperlink is known as anchor text. It is of great
value to the search engines and is used for evaluating the relevance of web
pages with respect to search queries.
23- How
will you treat Web standards while optimizing a website?
Google loves web standards hence I will apply the web standards provided by W3C
while optimizing a web site.
24- What
methods would you apply for decreasing the loading time of a website?
I would use external style sheets, less images (unless necessary), optimize the
images and decrease the file sizes of the image without reducing the quality of
the image, use CSS sprites to reduce HTTP requests etc.
25- Which
tools do you use for choosing keywords?
I use Google Keyword tool, Wordtracker tool, Wordstream, Seo book keyword tool
etc.
*Remember certain tools are paid but you may use the trial version for some
days.
26- What blogs and sites do you regularly visit to
update yourself?
I follow Matt Cutts blog. Seomoz blog, Seochat forums, Searchengineland.com,Seo
book, Seosandwitch :) etc.
27- What are doorway pages?
These are pages that are specially created to rank high on search engines using
deceptive techniques.These pages do not provide useful content but instead
redirect users to the main page.
28- What
are the Social Media channels you have used for marketing?
I have used blogs like
blogger,wordpress,typepad etc, social bookmarking sites like Digg,Jumptags,Delicious
etc., social networking sites like Facebook,Linkedin etc., Video Sharing sites
like Youtube,Vimeo etc.
29- What would you suggest to the client who has a
website made on Flash? How would you do Seo for that site?
Search engines
find it harder to parse the contents presented using Flash. I would suggest the
client to use an alternative to flash like HTML 5.
30- What
do you understand by Frames in HTML?
A frame is a
HTML technique which divides the content of a page onto several parts. Search
engines see Frames as completely different pages and as such Frames have a
negative impact on Seo. We should avoid the usage of Frames and use basic HTML
instead.
31- Which
is the popular search engine in Russia?
Yandex
is popular in Russia.
32- If
the meta robots tag has a value of "no index, no follow" what does it
mean?
It means the
search engine crawlers would not index the contents and would not follow the
links present on the page.
