I have recently signed up for Google Analytics - I have been running Adwords for 3 + years.

After much searching and talking to Google direct they have told me I cannot get keyword reports on searches generated in the Google Content Network. As the content searches make up 90% of the clicks I now receive I am very frustrated by this . I have therefore 2 questions to the experts on this forum :-

1. Is there another analytics platform you know of that will allow me to monitor keyword performance on the content network?

2. As the bulk of my traffic is thru the content network - I presume my daily budget is being sucked up by the content traffic leaving only a small amount for the search traffic? Can I separate these out?

I would greatly appreciate some help as Google Analytics just seems seriously flawed if it won't provide feedback on its content network

The keywords Google bases the ads shown in Adsense for Content are generated algorithmically and is an internal process, they are not a result of a search by a user. I'd be fairly certain that G would not reveal what words the alogorithm keyed on as they probably consider this a trade secret.

However, I assume you should be able to suss out the keywords used in Adsense for Search referrals.
