SEO question (I'm stumped)

Hey guys, I know we have some SEO experts in here, and maybe you've come across this before.

In Webmaster tools I'm showing my two top keywords as being





Keyword | Impressions | clicks
Social Neworking | 50,000 | 900
Internet Marketing | 22,000 | 1620

Now the 2nd one is right, but "Social networking" doesn't send me much at all according to Analytics

Why would this number be so far out? The other keywords listed are pretty accurate. This has climbed up fast over the last month, but I certainly didn't get 900 clicks from in the last 30 days thats for sure.

Any ideas?

Thanks guys!

    Google Webmaster Tools data can not be trusted. Always take with a pinch of salt. I'd assume it to be incorrect.

    perhaps you need a strong promotional methods for that particular keyword. Kindly check all your links especially if you are doing submission tasks. Be sure you have included that keyword in all of your articles and blogs

      Hi Dadelius
      It is not that Webmasters data is unreliable. It depends on how you view the data.

      For example, if your site is accessible through both www and non www versions, Analytics will aggregate the data for display.

      Webmasters will segregate the click count based on different versions. The data will not match sometimes because of the way the tracking is done by the different tools
