Next: About the AdSense Analytics Code

To see AdSense reporting in Analytics for a webpage, that webpage must contain:

In addition, if a webpage is not on your primary property, you must add a third piece of code:

Please note that the order of the code snippets is very important. The AdSense-Analytics code must be placed above the AdSense ad code.

We recommend that you place the snippets in your webpage's HTML in the following order:

  1. The Analytics tracking code, placed just before the closing </head> tag
  2. The AdSense-Analytics code snippet just after the <body> tag (for non-primary properties only)
  3. The AdSense ad code, between the <body> and </body> tags
Example code implementation

    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
