How is this possible?

I use Google Analytics tool and for this month I have at least 10 keywords that have 0 visits.

My question is if there were 0 visits from those keywords then how Analytics “captured” the keywords?

I saw something like this too. My guess is that the javascript analytics code on the page did not function correctly, poossibly because is was not implemented correctly on the page, possibly because the user has javascript turned off.

I'm just grasping here - but my theory is the visit was captured via Adwords PPC, but the arrival at the landing page was not recorded.

Hopefully someone will have a more concrete explanation.

Thanks RossWal.

I don't use AdWords for this site.

In fact there are more flaws in Google Analytics. The Yahoo "Paid" Clicks are recorded as "Free" clicks.
