This is part two of the three-part workshop series on Google Analytics 4.0 (GA4).
What You’ll Learn in this Workshop
In the Fundamentals workshop, we looked at how Google Analytics 4.0 (GA4) is different from Google Analytics 3.0 (GA3). We covered installation and configuration. We also looked at how to use GA4 with Google Tag Manager (GTM).
In this Intermediate workshop, we cover the basic reports in Google Analytics 4.0. In contrast to GA3, which was based on pages, GA4 is based on user behavior and events, so you get a deeper understanding of your audience and what they are doing.
You can use Google’s sample GA4 account or your own GA4 account. We will go through GA4’s standard menus and options.
You’ll also learn how to use segmentation in your analytics data. For example, you can separate and compare the traffic by desktop versus mobile users. This is easy to do and has a powerful impact on presenting your data. We also cover the Insights tool, how to share reports, and Google’s tool to write UTMs.
Key Takeaways
- We look at the standard reports in GA4: Life Cycle, Users, and Events
- The Life Cycle Section includes acquisition, engagement via events, and other metrics. The Monetization report lets you track purchases and revenue. The Retention report shows your website’s “stickiness” in getting visitors to come back. You get easy-to-understand reports of Daily Active Users (DAU), Weekly Active Users (WAU), and Monthly Active Users (MAU) and how these compare to each other.
- The Users Section includes demographics, such as age, gender, interests, and city. Tech includes devices, OS, browsers, screen size, app version (iOS and Android), and so on.
- The Events Section covers, of course, events. This report shows all of your active events. The Conversions report goes far beyond GA3’s conversion tracking. Because GA4 uses a new data model, you can track literally any action as a conversion. These are easy to set up. Your reports will be more useful to other teams in your organization.
- We also cover how to use segmentation. Instead of a graph with a single line for all devices, you can separate that line into the different devices, such as desktop, mobile, and tablets, and, just by looking, easily see the trend, compare the differences, and see which one matters. You can compare your traffic’s sources such as direct, organic, search, paid, and referral. You’ll see more examples of segmentation. Your presentations will be better.
Google Analytics 4.0 Advanced: Create Your Own Reports
Individual workshops $300 each, Now $225 each. Enroll here for Google Analytics 4.0 Advanced live online (September 29th).
Special Series Pricing: All three Google Analytics 4.0 live online workshops for $900 $550. Enroll here.
What You’ll Learn in this Workshop
In the first Fundamentals workshop, we looked at the basics of Google Analytics 4.0 (GA4) and in the second Intermediate workshop, we covered the basic reports in GA4.
In this third Advanced workshop, you learn how to create your own reports. In contrast to GA3, which has dozens of ready-to-use reports, GA4 offers only a few basic reports and then leaves it up to you to create the reports that you really want. Analysis Hub, the report creation tool, has dozens of options to create unique, personal reports that fit what your organization needs.
This is the core idea of GA4. Google realized every organization is different, so GA4 gives you a set of tools to select and present your data. Instead of consuming GA3’s ready-made data, you become a data analyst.
We’ll close by seeing how to use GA4 for digital marketing with SEO, digital ads, social media, email tracking, YouTube video, and apps.
Key Takeaways
- Analysis Hub: How to create your customized reports in Analysis Hub
- Examples of reports and how to use your reports
- How to share reports
- How to use Insights for additional information
- We’ll look at standard GA3 reports and how to create them in GA4
- How to use GA4 to track visitors and actions for digital marketing with SEO, digital ads, social media, email tracking, YouTube video, and apps
- We also look at how to use GA4 for startups and investors to track the metrics that they need
