Tracking Organic Seach Queries From GA to Companies
-
Okay, so this is a kinda ridiculous, long shot whim du jour. But it's so intriguing I can't resist.
Last week, GA reveals that my client had 6 queries (vs. 0 since the beginning of time) in the format:
Large Red Widgets #3 in Obscure Suburb (of my client's head office)
Large Red Widgets #3 just happen to be expensive and profitable.
My question: is there a snowball's chance in hell of tracking this query any further? I'll take what I can get -- since not many people are interested in red widgets #3 in said obscure suburb. I'd like enough info so a sales rep can follow up. These folks are not shy.
Thoughts? Next steps? Idiot proof instructions on where specifically to look in GA?
-
Yes, many thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for.

There's nothing you can do explicitly, Daniel, because GA's terms of service specifically prohibit tracking anything that can provide personally-identifiable information.
However! You could get lucky with the Network Domain dimension.
- Drill down to the keyword you've specified under Search -> Organic
- Once that keyword's info is displayed, click the Secondary Dimension dropdown at the top of the chart
- Select the Technology down arrow and then select Network Domain
Most of these results are typically ISP domains, but if the search was done from within a larger company's network you might get lucky and see their web domain on the list next to the keyword. That's as close as you'll get, but at least it would give your client's sales team a lead to start investigating/cultivating in other ways.
That what you were looking for?

Attribution model - the weighted number of conversions - GA
Hi, 1.Can someone explain me with an example what is "The weighted number of conversions under the custom selected attribution model"? How Analytics calculate it? 2. If I increase e.g social source for 1.4 in my attribution model, my organic or direct source are loosing that weighted number of conversions. Could it be because of organic or direct getting lower credit, or for some other reason? Ty. Br.

Adwords shows clicks but no conversions in GA
Hi Folks, I was wondering if anyone has come across a similar situation, I have setup adwords campaigns and included these in my Google Tag Manager setup and deployed the GTM snippet to a clients site. In adwords I can see clicks (2,000+) however in Google Analytics I can see only a handful ot conversions. Is there anyway I can test/track a conversion to ensure that it is being processed and report correctly? Also within AdWords Conversion Tracking I have noticed that under the "Webpages" tab that pages other than the pages that should have the conversion code on them are listed. Have I setup my Adwords camapign or GTM tags incorrectly? Any and all feedback or insight would be greatly welcomed and appreciated.

Tracking Adwords Conversions for eCommerce ROI
I'm working with a rather large eCommerce customer who needs to be able to track their Adwords conversions for the purpose of determining the ROI of their Adwords campaigns. I've installed code from Google Adwords Conversions on their eCommerce page, but it doesn't seem to be calculating values correctly. Also, where would setting goals in Analytics come in to play if I'm trying to track the conversions of specific Adwords conversions?

How to track PPC conversions?
I use both adwords and Microsoft Adcenter. I am looking to be able to track my conversions from each PPC site. I do not have a "Thank You" or "Check Out" page that I can tag because any sales that I make are through clicks on a link that goes offsite to an affiliate company that I receive commission from. However, the link on my site is a "Buy Now" button, so to get some idea of which source is giving me better conversions I'd like to know whether adcenter or adwords is sending more people that end up clicking this link. Canb anyone suggest a way or a program to set up in this manner? Thanks in advance for your help!
