Help Adwords Clicks Not Showing in Analytics

I am getting clicks from adwords about 100 in the last 3 days but in my analytics it says I am getting none.

Is this something I have done??? Before that we were tracking everything perfectly. What should I check to make sure everything is working correctly???

Please help

I am having this same problem (analytics says around 200 for the month but Adwords says approximately 3,500)..and if I research a little further, analytics tells me that only 2 were from paid search

One of the measures of search engine marketing success is getting keyword targeted traffic through organic or natural listings. This is obvious. Being able to see the difference in paid and unpaid traffic is not so obvious to the beginner, but it is where the truth of success comes. It is no secret that paid traffic can actually have more value per visitor in some industries (if you know what you are doing), than unpaid traffic, but you should never throw the baby out with the bath water. In other industries pay-per-click inflation has gotten the best of bidders. In any case, it’s very important that you tag your paid search campaigns.

Tagging is a fancy word for naming something unique to identify its origin, and it’s highly important to tag your ads through AdWords. For most analytics or web stats programs you have to tag ads manually in which you should use a dynamic string attached to the destination URL. Google Analytics makes it easy on you (in exchange for being Big Brother) and will tell us the difference between paid and unpaid traffic automatically IF one default setting is changed through AdWords.

Here are the easy steps for making Google Analytics Track Google AdWords Automatically showing you the difference in paid and unpaid traffic.:

1. Login into AdWords

2. Go to the “My Account” tab, 4th Green Tab on the right

3. Then go to “Account Preferences”

4. Under “Tracking” on the right side, edit and set “Auto-tagging” to “Yes”

By default it is set to “No.”

For visual learners here is a screenshot of auto-tagging switch.

In the future if you decide to use Yahoo! Search Marketing or MSN adCenter (which I recommend you do), you have to manually tag the ads (adding a bit of description to the destination URL). This way you will be able to tell what is ppc traffic and what is organic from Yahoo and MSN. Use this tagging URL builder.

See below/above (depending).

Thanks! I did check, and it was already set up correctly. Summer is a slow time for this client, but I just find it hard to believe it's THIS slow.

Did you generate your landing pages URLs through Google URL builder? because this is must for proper tracking of your campaigns via Google analytics.
