Okay so basically I have a question on both analytics and webmaster tools.


Need someone to bring me out of the darkness.



Please bare with me as there are several questions.


IN SEARCH ENGINE QUERIES OF ANALYTICS:


1) Is it normal to see impressions with the same exact number repeatedly about 10 times in a row for different keywords I have been using in my campaigns? (eg i am seeing 5 repeatedly it is like a robotic number repeated over n over again
2) my average position in analytics is 52; i am sure that is good but the lowest is 5.4 position and the high end is 260 for the position bringing about the average.
3) if my average impression is 52, how come not even one click yet???
4) in analytics, source/medium tab, i only see 2 organic searches but 100% bounce rate, what does that really mean? I am thinking the viewer came and went (they didnt like the website)
IN WEBMASTERS

5) it says zero clicks but when I was at analytics, in the landing pages summary there was a total of 10 clicks?
6) in search traffic / search analytics there is no data yet but if I clicked on the link for search queries above, then there is a data that pops up why is that?
7) the average position for the query keywords in webmaster tools, for the high end, range around 240 to 450, what would that mean exactly??


Ladies and gentleman thank you for your detailed and thorough explanation
Sincerely

    Quicksprout: I think it’s just an easy way for their algorithm to compile data — the rounding is pretty accurate so don’t worry about it.

    Re-quote your point, 52 impressions or average position or Both. If any page of your site have good position on search engine for a query and viewed by users(impressions) but not get clicked, you really need to optimize the pages to improve CTR.
    Also note that, data in SEO reports are not appropriate. Use other dimensions to get the exact clicks on a particular page/landing page. And, in SEO reports, you may see 0 clicks from a query, while your page has good average position (5.4 or any other).

    If they are organic traffic with 100% bounce rate, means the user lands on webpage and exit the same page. You can't say whether the user find the page useful or not.

    Search Analytics in Search Console shows data only of Google searches but Landing Page of Google Analytics shows all type of data (Organic from several search engines, direct, Referral, Social or any other) to a specific landing page. That's why you are getting different data.

    Probably date issue, The old report (Search Queries) shows reports of last 30 days, but new Search Analytics can not shows the report of last 2 days.

    Position - The average position of the topmost result from your site. So, for example, if your site has three results at positions 2, 4, and 6, the position is reported as 2. If a second query returned results at positions 3, 5, and 9, your average position would be (2 + 3)/2 = 2.5.
