How To Link Google Ads To Google Analytics?
Both SEO and Google ads or AdWords play a vital role in promoting campaigns. SEO is a pretty time-taking strategy. However, Google ads are a way to go for instant results. The story doesn’t end here.
You can’t only rely on AdWords for boosting your leads. It is not a reporting tool so you need Google Analytics for this. Connecting your Google ads and Analytics will help you study data in segments and make effective decisions.
Steps to link Google Analytics to AdWords
- The first step is to click “Admin” after opening your analytics account.
2. In the second step, select the account. Click “Google ads” under the Property section.
3. In the next phase, mark the value to configure your google ads account and continue. Remember! You must have the same Gmail ID and Admin access for both google ads and analytics.
4. Put the “Name” and turn on the ‘View type’ for desired data to import from Google ads on the link configuration page.
5. Last, hit the link button and you are all set to go.
Do You Want To Cross-Check Whether Your Accounts Are Linked Or Not?
Go to your Google ads account. Select the option “Tools and Settings” and click the “Linked accounts” tab.
A new page will show up. Go to Google Analytics “Detail” toggle.
Once you have done these steps, you will see the last sheet with all the linking descriptions. If your accounts are connected then it will show you Linked in the status column.
