Google Analytic why do we get (Not Provided)

This is very common thing that most people face which use Google AdSense in their websites. The main reason behind this comes from the fact that people use https rather than http. Following some information will help you to better understand.

– This thing usually occurs when people are logged in to their Google account and then do the Google search because then they use the https, the ssl instead of the simple http, the normal approach.

– In order to help people and their selves, Google named it organic search visits and named it with, as you have seen "(not provided)".

-When people do Google search using Organic search then it won't count any keyword except this one. This is same for people who had not signed in. The only problem is for people who are signed in to their account and then uses the Google search. But this is hardly few % of traffic that comes from Organic search.

Hi,  is your Google account okay or is still existing? Do you have another Google account? Because if you do, Did you know that Google officially announced that they will not be providing keyword data for search result if you are sign in  to another Google account.
