I have a site to which I have adwords advertising.
How do I diferentiate between clicks done in publishers pages, clicks on publishers search boxes and clicks on searchs direclty on google site and clicks from my pages appearing in SERP?
How does look the referal string for this each 4 different google referals?
If you get a hit with a code then it is probably from AdWords (unless someone bookmarked it and uses it directly.)
As far as I know, there is no way to differentiate among content, search network, and Google search results except to look at the referer string for the code hits and infer it from the domain names.
I've got Netscape 7.1.
On any wab page, I can right-click anywhere in the page (not on a link though) and click View Page Info.
That brings up a dialog. You'll see "Referring URL:" and then a string. If the string is long you can widen the dialog. But if it's *waaaay* long you might not see the whole thing. And it's a label control, not a text entry control, so you can't click in it and move all the way to the end like in a textbox.
But it will show you the referal string.
So go to the publisher sites you mentioned and do each thing in question and when you get to your site, right click and you'll know (if you use frames you may have to check each frame separatly.)
