          Hi,

          I have two campaigns running in Google Adwords or Google Ads now and I saw in Google Ads account that I had 5 clicks today (09/18/2018) but when I try to search for this clicks in my Google Analytics in ACQUISITION > All Traffic > Channels I don't find nothing about "Paid Search" or something like that.

          Bellow is a picture of my Google Analytics account to prove it. The accounts are linked and I can find the 2 campaigns in the Analytics.

          How can I interpret this picture? Where the paid traffic is showing? or not showing there?

          Thanks

          Leandro

              Solved with Google support. Thanks for the answer and the link Alick300.

              The problem was in Google Analytics properties settings.

              Just needed change a parameter in Google Analytics menu Admin > Proporties > Properties Settings > Advanced Settings

              Click to enable this feature:

              Allow manual tagging (UTM values) to override auto-tagging (GCLID values) for Google Ads and Search Ads 360 integration

              Regards,

              Leandro

                Hi,

                Yes auto tagging is enabled and adwords and analytics linked as you said above so I would suggest you to reach Google ads support team they will help you.

                https://support.google.com/google-ads/gethelp

                Thanks

                  Hi, thanks for the answer Alick300 and Sean Ginnaw, I really don't use auto-tagging. But I checked my auto-tagging settings and looks like be set to ON as the picture.

                  But using the section of Google Support to set this feature he saids to change "Tracking" the the options showed in this link doesn't exists in the actual version, looks like an old manual.

                  https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/3095550?co=ADWORDS.IsAWNCustomer%3Dfalse&hl=en

                  Can anyone help me?

                    Hi There,

                    Auto tagging is a great place to start.

                    If that isn't possible, it it's breaking, you can manually specify UTM values by adding a query extension to each landing page URL.

                    Google's tool for doing this is here > https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/campaign-url-builder/

                    All the best,

                    Sean

                      Hi,

                      Please check auto tagging is enabled or not? If not enable it.

                      Thanks

                        Google Search Console not loading some resources

                        When I check an URL with Search Console it cannot load some page resources, even from other domains (like: ssl.google-analytics.com, www.facebook.com and www.google-analytics.com).
                        Have any of you experienced this issue?
                        Steps to reproduce: open Google Search Console check an URL click "View crawled page" link select "More info" tab click "Page resources" {?}/{?} couldn't be loaded When I check the listed resources, all of them can be loaded from a web browser.
                        So I do not understand why Google cannot load them.
                        And there is no additional info why the resources could not be loaded.
                        Any ideas? google-search-console-other-error-1.png google-search-console-other-error-2.png

                        Google Analytics reporting traffic for 404 pages

                        Hi guys, Unique issue with google analytics reporting for one of our sites. GA is reporting sessions for 404 pages (landing pages, organic traffic) e.g. for this page: http://www.milkandlove.com.au/breastfeeding-dresses/index.php the page is currently a 404 page but GA (see screenshot) is reporting organic traffic (to the landing page). Does anyone know any reasons why this is happening? Cheers. http://www.milkandlove.com.au/breastfeeding-dresses/index.php GK0zDzj.jpg

                        if I 301 redirect www.mywebsite.com to go to www.yourwebsite.com, how can I track the traffic in Google Analytics that is coming from mywebsite.com??  I don't think that's a referral traffic, is it?
