Statistics

Statistics

The Statistics tab shows you a broad range of information about your campaigns. It allows you to gain insights into the performance of your campaigns and diagnose problems when they occur. The Graph Data panel at the top of the screen shows you charts of data related to your campaigns, while the Table Data panel at the bottom shows you tables of important data for recent dates, as well as the cost of achieving selected conversions.

The information in the Statistics tab is broken down across several groups and dimensions. Data is displayed in New York time zone (EST or EDT). The only exception is the Hour dimension within Dates. In this breakdown, you can change the statistics time zone by selecting the corresponding country in the bottom right of the graph on this tab, choosing the corresponding time zone (if there are multiple), then clicking Apply:
