How to use Google Adsesnse Channels

    Hi,
    I was wondering how can I use 'channels" in Adsense to track performance of my ads? I've read about channels but am unable to use channels to check the stats of my ads. How can I benefit more from using channels besides from getting ad performance?

    Help is appreciated.

    Regards,

    channels are useful if you are using adsense on multiple sites

    Thanks for your input mate; but I already know it. What I really want to know is 'how can I USE it?' I have multiple sites with Adsense and I want to track the performance of Adsense on each site.

    If you want to compare ad performance from site to site you want to set up URL channels - one channel for each domain.

    But every time I set a new add, do I have to add NEW channel of the same website?

    Secondly, when the channel is set for a website, how can I track the ad performance?

    Thanks,

    With URL channels you see all the impressions/clicks on that URL.

    If you enter example.com, it will be every ad on example.com.


    You can track specific ad units by using a custom channel with that ad unit.

    You can see which pages on your site generate revenue by linking your Adsense to Analytics.

    I think Google Adsense Help Forum can help you clear every issues that you have. They have tutorials for set up a channel.

    Thank you Nonny for such a brief help, I'll make sure to go with it the next time I am placing ads for my sites.

    And thank you all who helped/guided me with their suggestions/opinions.
