What each tool sees on its ownShow less

Google Search Console on its own

Search Console sees the search up to the click and stops there. It cannot say whether that visitor booked, bought or left.

Timing. Search Console numbers usually arrive two to three days behind, reported as daily totals per query and page.

Access. The Search Console API with read access to the property.

Meta Ads on its own

Meta sees who saw and clicked an ad. It cannot see a sale its pixel missed, and lead-form contacts stop being visible to it once they leave Facebook or Instagram.

Timing. Meta reports conversions under its own attribution setting, seven days after a click and one day after a view by default.

Access. The Meta Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
