    Hi

    In Google Analytics I see that search engines are getting me 5.1% of my hits...Search Engines 16.00 (5.10%) Is there a way for me to find out what key words were used to find my site..

    Thank you

    In the analytics menu select: Traffic sources -> Search engines -> google (or any other search engine you want to see the stats for)

    Thank you .. I have just visited my Web Master tools.

    I think I needed to word my question a little better

    When someone arrives at my site from Google. Is there a way for me to see what key words they used to get there..

    In a related Question. I know that my page has Key words. Can I do a search using these key words and get to see what position my Page is when these words are used in a search..

    Thank you..

    If you need to know the keyword in real time (i.e. to present the user a different content) it is possible to do that by looking at the referer url. If its from google.com or yahoo.com, the query string q= or p= (google, yahoo), is the keyword with which the user reached your site.
    I can send you ASP.NET code for this, I don't know how it works with php (and I don't know php at all..:)

    Also, you can include Statcounter code, there is also some report there about where your traffic came from what are the keywords used on SE in finding your site.
