I just set up a web site for a car service.

I created also an AdWords campaign with keywords related to car service and 30km around his location.

Now I see the referer logs.

Sometimes the referer is googleleads.g.doubleclicl.net
sometimes the web site, where the ad is shown.

Why?

How are you tagging your Google Adwords ads? I know there is a auto tag feature which I do leave on but I also add something like "www.example.com?Google-Adwords-Campaign-Name-Search-Content"

Makes it easier to segment your traffic from Google that way.

If your getting really weird results and you can prove it DEMAND a refund for the weird clicks and see what happens. The worst they do is say no.

No, the clicks are good.

They came from discussion forums about car service,
I would say perfect targeted.

I wonder only, why they appear sometimes as
googleleads.g.doubleclick.net and sometimes with the page address

Can you see the browser type in the logs? Maybe that is a variable.

I would have thought all clicks would be going through doubleclick or some other google click tracking mechanism.
