WordPress and LinkedIn Ads share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in WordPress pages can be read against what LinkedIn Ads recorded in the same hours.
What combined reporting uses from each
Combined reporting needs a shared identifier or a shared time grain.
From WordPress that means page URLs. From LinkedIn Ads it means lead emails and company names.
LinkedIn Ads is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
WordPress on its own
WordPress knows what is published and when it changed. Without analytics beside it, it has no idea which pages bring in work.
Timing. WordPress stamps the publish and modified date on every post and page, which marks exactly when content changed.
Access. The WordPress REST API with an application password.
LinkedIn Ads on its own
LinkedIn sees clicks, lead-form submissions and the companies it reached. It never sees whether a lead became a deal.
Timing. LinkedIn reports conversions under its own windows, thirty days after a click and seven after a view by default.
Access. The LinkedIn Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
