Baidu organic search keywords

Avatar

Level 4

Hello,

I know Google no longer shares the organic search keyword (right?), but presumably other Search Engines still do.

Specifically, Baidu. However, when I use the "Search Keyword - Natural" metric within the Natural Search channel on traffic coming from Baidu, the values are more often than not "unspecified".

Does Adobe capture the keywords or do we need to implement additional plugins or other solutions?

Thank you

Honestly, we are completely at the mercy of the search engine on whether they pass keyword data. I did some testing, and did not see any keyword information get passed through the referring URL via Baidu when I clicked through to a website that had Adobe Analytics implemented.

You're welcome to try it out yourself, but I don't believe Baidu passes search keyword data.
