More Information
As a best practice, only hit-based measures should be used with search engine dimensions generated from visitor history. Visitor-based measures should not be used in these reports. Visit-based measures can be used, but the counts may be inflated for visitors who performed multiple searches during the same visit. Furthermore, both dimensions in two-dimensional reports should use search engine dimensions generated from visitor history.
