Hi, couldn't find a suitable Google section, hope this post is OK....
My info-only site has been online for only 3 weeks now - had a few people find it via Google, but on analytics there is a slightly strange bit of data.....
Looking at visits via 'keywords', I can see that one person has visited 20 times via 5 widely-spaced cities using the same keyword phrase (eg widgets and wadgets), although the landing page is 3 different pages (mostly now the home page, although the original landing page was suitable to the inputted keyphrase). Now, seeing as my site is the kind of info site that most people only read 1 or 2 pages of, I find this confusing.....
Can anyone explain these findings? Is this just someone that has bookmarked my site? (ie if a site is added as a favourite, does analytics record the original keyword phrase used to find the site every time it is accessed?) - and I guess someone that travels a lot?
Sorry about the rambling! Thanks

how can you tell it's the same visitor?
if it's just a unique keyword phrase, perhaps he posted or sent a search url to several friends.

Hi phranque - Google says it is x number of visits, 1 unique visitor.
Just seems a bit odd.....
