@PlausibleHQ I know, but I don't want to strip it. I want page views where the URL contains certain query parameters not to count.
mysite.com = 1 page view
mysite.com/?bad=query = 0 page view
@PlausibleHQ I'm using the Wordpress-plugin. Can I utilize the "Excluded pages" function to exclude pages with a particular Query? Or would that require me to first set up custom tracking of query parameters like this; plausible.io/docs/custom-qu…
@dsottimano@iamlinus Indeed yep. The "classic one" essentially would execute the js - thus you're entirely correct Dave: it needs to be client side. We use feature detection for this (and the new client hints API)
@dsottimano do you know if it's possible to distinguish the Google crawler bot from the rendering bot in the server logs? I'm trying to figure out if and when the render bot renders our pages.
Uhm.. I can’t seem to find the dimension “host name” in #GA4. What am I missing? Feels good to be a rookie all over again though! 🤓 #googleanalytics@googleanalytics
@danielbarbour2@aleyda If there’s different code that creates the sitemap, the canonicals and the internal links (like in a product listing) you could get lots of internal links to non canonical pages, or have sitemap with pages that lack internal links. Mainly a problem for Ecommerce sites I’d say.
@iamlinus@aleyda Do you mind re-phrasing this for a less technical SEO? I don’t understand how there can be an inconsistency between internal linking and the other two.
What's the most frequent *high impact* but often overlooked Technical SEO issue that you see a lot across your projects happening again and again and try to fix asap?
In my case, it's likely poor internal linking of critical (priority to rank) pages! What's yours?
@screamingfrog I have issues with some xml-sitemaps not being read. Screaming Frog says no URLs are found, but I can't see the issue. What could be the problem?
Always a pleasure listening to Dominic Woodman from @distilled. Looking forward to dig in to his slides about information architecture and SEO later on.

@iamlinus What an odd claim. It’s an event handler - whatever performance cost is incurred comes from the tags the trigger fires, not from the trigger itself. The callback which pushes the object into dataLayer is definitely not performance-heavy.
