Google Ads vs Google Organic #115

Open adriaandotcom opened 4 years ago

adriaandotcom commented 4 years ago

Different referrals between Google Ads and Google Organic.

LukasGrebe commented 4 years ago

why not just use the ref param in the link of your ads?

adriaandotcom commented 4 years ago

That would work, but Google is already showing that it's paid, so we could show in the referrer list:

Google (organic) 700
Google (paid) 200

LukasGrebe commented 4 years ago

what exactly (substing ?) do you look for? - presumably in the referrer?

adriaandotcom commented 4 years ago

One of the utm_ codes did contain something like paid I believe

LukasGrebe commented 4 years ago

But utm Params are set by the marketeers and not System intrinsic. Did you mean the gcid (google click id)? AFAIK that’s only set when enabled in AdWords and also covers other google products (such as shopping)

adriaandotcom commented 4 years ago

hm, good point!

Bump this up! We have another customer asking for this.
