Google ‘ORGANIC’ versus ‘PAID’ using only referrer's url

‘ORGANIC’ VS ‘PAID’


Paid Adwords
Organic (Natural)

For differentiate paid keywords (from google adwords)  from organic keywords (from natural google search) using referral URL we must look at URL path if it contain “aclk” then it AdWords, also “sa=l” or “sa=L” must be set, also look at “adurl” (but it only for new).

Example : http://www.google.ru/aclk?sa=L&ai=CGQe9IKiqUre0Dcb57Abu64CABqmNzboEmeuhqXvPyIIJCAAQASgCUNCU__78_____wFghAXIAQGpAq-L8S2ZvUQ-qgQlT9Ddw9sbMjt6r62EdrGu_psl8xtrz1o3ltazQPTiTFX1Yrd6BboFEwiSy4-fyKy7AhUyBtsKHYoMAPPKBQCAB8Gp0i6QBwE&ei=IKiqUpK7BrKM7AaKmYCYDw&sig=AOD64_1pMv15FgOb54PR1JPhxPdW5MkL_Q&rct=j&q=buy+used+cars&sqi=2&ved=0CCgQ0Qw&adurl=https://www.tqmbazaar.com

In addition to the new google url format there are three others:

  1. google.com/search (old format)
  2. google.com/url (new format)
  3. google.com/ie (mobile search)
  4. google.com/webhp (contains #hash query)
  5. google.com/aclk (adwords)
