    Yes they sure are.

    I installed a plugin for some of my blogs to do tracking earlier as I had doubts and then installed ganalytics

    I noticed that the blogs was getting thousands of visitors and the plugin was showing 0. They were pretty targeted.

    So yes it sure does!

    Yep, it does and you can see all adwords clicks if you go to your site profile in Google Analytics - > Traffic Sources -> Search Engines -> Google -> Show Paid

    It appears to me that Google analytics stats report quite accurately, though I have had difficulty in analysisng Adwords in Site stats.

    However my concern is with the accuracy of the statistical data from Google Keywords. I would appreciate Digital Point forum members views on this subject. For example: my flagship site is CarSpareFinder which is in the Top 3 in the UK for the term 'car parts'.
    Google Keywords reports the term "car parts" as searched for (in the UK) 5m per month. This cannot be correct. I do nto believe that 5 million every month search for car parts i.e. almost 10% ofd the population.
    I believe it must be a 'global figure'.
    Has anyone else had a similar experience?
    Thanks

    Google analytics is showing adwords campaigns in your analytics as well under Adwords section of google analytics in case if you allowed adwords account to consolidate with google analytics account. if you didn't allow to share your adwords data with analytics then you won't able to see the performance of campaigns. Allow auto tagging and sharing your ad words campaigns with google analytics.

    I m pretty much sure that if you already done this you are able to see the campaign performance.

    and the only thing Google analytic should add is click fraud technology ,I believe they have to add this feature to recruit more result and better conversion
