How to Link/Unlink Google Analytics and AdwordsAug62018
Linking Adwords to Analytics allows you to see metrics such as pages per visit, percentage of new visits, average visit duration, and bounce rate - all within the AdWords interface.
You'll discover which keywords generate visits and the length of time spent on those visits. If people are spending ten seconds on a page, and others are spending three minutes on another page - then it's a flag indicating you'll want to adjust either your keyword(s) or the landing page.
Linking Adwords to Analytics will give you insights for re-allocation of your marketing budget based on conversion and performance metrics.
