    Hello,

    Question 1:
    If you have a website ( blog ) and you place Google Ads on them.

    And if you do not have Analytics.

    How does Google know what your traffic sources are ?
    Where they come from, what the referrer is ???

    Or will they not be able to find out your traffic sources ?

    Question 2:

    - How can I send visitors to one page, and automaticly redirect them to another page ?

    Like: I send visitors ( I buy traffic ) to my homepage and than they automaticly go to another page...

    Can someone please answer these questions for me !!! ???

    Kind regards!

    How do you know that Google knows what your traffic sources are in terms of referrals?

    So your saying, if you do not use Google analytics,

    Google will not find out where your traffic is coming from :S ?
    ( To your website ).

    Even when you have Google Ads on your website ?

    When javascript is enabled and the users loads the Google code, then they'll know.

    Google Ads use javascript to display on the page. Javascript or any other language has access to "server variables". (Server variables are chunks of information about the connection between the browser and the server like the session ID, cookies, user agent, and the referrer. )

    So, code running on any page has access to the referrer by getting it from the server.
