Thanks for the great post! I’ve just implemented this and I am eagerly waiting for GA to generate the data in the new profile. I did however have a question: are these filters supposed to generate info that is different from the “search query” report in our Google Adwords account? The “search query” is supposed to also show all the exact keywords searched but I was told that the information was incomplete and the report we would get by applying these filters in GA would be much better. Is this true?

Thanks for your help!

No you don’t have to add any new code.

I’m having the same problem as Kunal from August 18th, 2008.

Do we have to modify or add tracking code to account for the new profile id ((e.g. usual filter: UA-153940-7, newly created filter UA-153940-8)

Thanks

@Eric, no there is no way, unfortunately.

Is there a way to identify what exact phrase generated a conversion/revenue? Right now, only the general phrase shows the conversion rate, but not the exact phrase that had the filter applied.

Thanks, great post.

We’ve implemented it and we notice something strange. When the keywords appear in an exact form, without the following brackets (), the usage stats are much better in terms of time on site and pageviews. In addition, we see no goal conversions for the keywords with the following brackets.
