Adds Google Ads tags to campaign URLs
Enabling auto-tagging does what?
Different businesses will naturally have different macro-and micro-conversions. For a content publisher, the macro-conversion might be
Engaging with a particular amount of content, with a micro-conversion of clicking into an article.
If you click on the campaign name, you can see the source and medium data that you
Entered into the URL Builder.
If each newsletter sign-up was worth 1 doller to your business, you could se ta goal value

Consider website objectives as well as your marketing activities, when
Evaluating the mix of new and returning users to your site.
Event hits pass four parameters of data in the URL
Event action, category, label, and value.
The Google Merchandise Store has a live chat button in their top navigation bar that opens a pop-up window when clicked. However this pop-up window was implemented by a third-party vendor and goes to a different URL that the Google Analytics tracking code won't track by defaut. We can set up
Event tracking on this button with the category "Outbound links", an action of "Live Chat" and a label of "Home" (or wherever the live chat button was clicked from). That way, we can tell how many times the live chat button was clicked and from what page. We can then know which web pages were causing users to seek help and work to better optimize those pages.
An "event" hit lets you track
Every time a user interacts with a particular element on your website.

"One" each time a pageview hit fires.
After selecting the destination type goal, you'll enter the destination URL of the

"Order Complete" page.
Some common examples of mediums are
"Organic", "CPC", "Referral", "Email", and "None".
Most common types of hits
"Pageview" hits, "Event" hits, and "transaction" hits.
Every time a user loads a page on your website, the google analytics trakcing code creates a
"Pageview" that is reported in Google analytics.
Two kinds of filters
"Predefined" and "Custom" filters.
For every property its recommended to set up at least three views. A
"Raw Data" view, a "Test" view, and a "Master" view.

"Value" parameter.
If you want to assign a monetary amount to the conversion goal, you ca flip the
"Value" toggle to "On" and type the amount that each conversion is worth.
Category lets you organize the events you track into groups. For your wbsite this might be
"Videos" or "Social Shares."
If you were tracking when users click a video play-button, you might have an event action category called
"Videos" with an associated action of "play.'
You can find your public IP addresses by opening a new tab and searching for
"What's my ip?" in Google.
Audience reports are located under
"audience" in the left-hand navigation.
Marketing campaigns are tracked in Google Analytics through
"campaign tagging"
Naming conventions, make sure that you use consistent medium names like
"display" for banner campaigns and "email" for email campaigns.
Once in the "test view" for a property, click view settings scroll down, and under bot filtering click
"exclude all hits from known bots and spiders" as this will help filter out bot traffic.
If the medium was "cpc" the source might be
"google", "bing", or yahoo.
Unlike dimensions, Custom Metrics can only have a scope of
"hit" or "product".
Dimensions can have a scope of
"hit", "product", "session", or "user".
If the medium was "email" the source might be
"newsletter"
Once you'v verified your settings on goal details flip the Funnel switch to
"on" to add the funnel steps.

After adding vertical attributes to your page tags and creating your Remarketing Audiencs, you need to create
Dynamic Attributes based on those vertical attributes and link them to your AdWords account.
Once you've added the code to your website pages, you can create your
Dynamic Remarketing audiences using the Custom Dimensions you've defined.
You can only use URL builder to build out one URL at a time, so you probably won't want to use it to build
Each URL if you have a large campaign.
In the data table in campaigns you can use the Acquisition metrics to see the clicks for
Each campaign and the total amount paid for those clicks.
Under behavior, you can see user engagement for
Each campaign.
Cohort Size determines the size of
Each cohort.
The order you apply the filters is very important.
Each filter passes filtered data to the next filter in the sequence, so you'll want to be thoughtful about the order in which you apply your filters.
Once you have set up your configuraton, Google Analytics processes the data by checking
Each hit against your filters.
If you select "hit" as a scope for custom metrics, the custom metric will be incremented with
Each hit sent over by the tracking code and totalled up in Google Analytics.
Notice that there's an Actions drop-down menu on
Each segment.
In "Source/Medium Report" we can click into the comparison view and select the metric "bounce rate" to compare bounce rate for
Each source/medium combination to the site average.

Similar to accounts, properties also have a unique
Property ID that's appended to the Analytics ID
For standard users, session sampling occurs at the
Property level, not the view level.
You can switch properties in the Admin area by using the
Property pulldown menu.
Sampling for standard users occurs at the property level, meaning that the sample set will be delivered at the
Property-level before view-level filters are applied.

Once you've set up your AdWords campaign, you'll be able to
Re-attract audiences based on the content that they previously viewed on your site.
Since the Google Store is an eCommerce store, one goal they could track is successful checkouts. So, let's set up a goal every time a user
Reaches the checkout confirmation page.
Demographics and Interests information is useful. If you know your target audience, it can help verifty that you're
Reaching the right people.
After collecting data, you'll need to package up data into
Readable reports that you can send to decision-makers that will allow them to make important strategic decisions.

With additional implementation in behavior reports you can even track what your users
Searched for on your site and whether they interacted with specific elements.
If you want to understand which specific pages of your site are being linked to, you can add a
Secondary Dimension of "landing page" to the report.
If you're running campaigns and want to correlate landing pages with your marketing efforts, add a
Secondary dimension of "campaign" or "source medium". Then you can examine which campaigns and landing pages are turning away users and make corrections.
If you want to verify the other campaign tags you added to your URL, add a
Secondary dimension such as "Ad Content'
You have the ability to generate more cusotmized reports in Analytics using features like
Secondary dimensions or by creating a Custom Report.

To measure periods of user hits Analytics uses a metric called
Sessions
Metrics may be calculated in specific dimensions like
Sessions or New Users per country.
You might choose to build segments based on a specific traffic source like paid search and compare that to
Sessions that originated from email campaigns. This helps you see which types of users each source delivers.
Metrics that show up in your report include
Sessions, pages per session, average session duration, and bounce rate.
Hits can be organized into
Sessions.
Duration
Sessios that last over a set amount of time.
You can look at Ecommerce transactions or individual goals if you've

Set up your organizations, accounts, properties, and views based on the individual needs of your business.
Once you've found meaningful data in your reports, Gooogle Analytics offers
Several ways to share or refer back to the report.
"Collaborate" allows users to
Share things like dashboards or certain measurement settinsg.
Custom Reports can be associated with different views as well, so they can easily be
Shared by users who have access to the same view.
You can select accounts that belong to your current Organization
In the Admin area.
You can see the unique ID from the Google Analytics account you created
In the Analytics tracking code.
Multi-Channel Funnel Reports (or MCF) can tell you what role prior activities played
In the conversion process.
You can create a new custom report that allos you to view the Google Merchandise Store's event category, action and label dimensions together
In the same report.
While sessions time out after thirty minutes of inactivity by default, you can change this setting
In your configurations to better aline with user behavior on your site.
Because the URL is different for identical pages with different addresses, this page will show up multiple times
In your reports. But since they're the same page, it may make sense to filter out the query parameters so that it doesn't appear multiple times in a report.
When you save a Custom Metric for the first time, you'll be taken to a screen with JavaScript to
Include on your website.
When you create a new view, it will not
Include past data.
Custom filters let you design a filter to
Include, exclude, or modify data.
When a user performs an action like landing on an Android-branded merchandise page, the code from Custom Metrics will send over a hit and
Incremement this metric in Analytics using the index for that Custom Metric.
Similar to "Goals" and "Custom Dimensions," Google Analytics assigns an
Index (or slot number) for each Custom Metric you create.
Index refers to the
Index number of the Custom Metric you created in Analytics.

Interact with specic elements of your website.
You can use the event hit parameters (action, category, label, and value) to categorize
Interactions in reports that are specific to your website.
Total Events are calculated as teh total number of
Interactions with the tracked element
If the google store wanted to only see data for external traffic (that didn't include their own store employees), they could set up a view that filtered out
Internal traffic based on IP address.
Summary view makes it easier to
Interpret the metrics in the context of the markeitng funnel.
When Google analytics collects data like location, device type, and browser type, it turns this data
Into dimensions that make up your reports in Analytics.
A high bounce rate usually indicates that the landing page content
Is not relevant or engaging to those users.
Once the hit is sent to Google analytics and combined with additional data, all of this information
Is ready for processing by the Analytics servers.
The Demographic reports may not contain any data if your site traffic
Is very low or your segment is too small.
Once Analytics processes the data, it's stored in a database where
It can't be changed.
Similar to custom Dimensions, you collect Custom Metric Data using
JavaScript that's implemented on a page. When a user lands on that page or performs a specific action, the Custom Metric will be sent as an additional parameter attached to the hit.
You collect data for a Custom Dimension using
JavaScript tracking code that's implemented on a page.
website data collection begins with a snipet of
JavaScript tracking code that's included on every web apge of the site where you want to collect data. .
After you've set up the Custom Dimension, you must implement the
JavaScript tracking code you copied from Analytics into your website code to collect the custom data.
After you set up the Custom Metric, you must add teh
JavaScript tracking code you copied from Analytics to your website to collect the data with the hit.
Each tactic will have
Key Performance Indicators (or KPIs) that help you measure your macro- or micro-conversions.

Audience lists will ppopulate in the AdWords or doubleclick account that you
Link to Analytics. These products can then be used to create ad campaigns for those specific audiences.
When you create a filter it shows up in the
List of filters.
Interactions on your website can be as simple as
Loading a page or something more specific like clicking a video play buttron or a link.
Secondary Dimensions are a common technique when analyzing data. For example, you could ad a secondary dimension of "device category" to the
Location report to see what kind of devices were used by people in different countries, while visiting your website.
You can drag and drop existing widgets to different
Locations within the dashboard.
Selectic a specific time like hourly, weekly, or monthly can be especially helpful when
Looking at large data sets.
Bounce Rate is calculated by
Looking at users who only had one interaction on your site without a second interaction to calculate the session duration or time on page.
If we configure something incorrectly, we may inadvertently
Lose data we want to collect. So it's best to test all of our configurations in test view first.
Geographical sales data can be used to understand if people in certain places buy a
Lot of shirts and then run additional advertising campaigns in those areas.
You can sort the page views report by various metrics to quickly find
Low-performing pages that need improvement or high-performaing content to guide futrue content decisions.

Google Tag Manager
Manage multiple tags for your website, Conditional firing of tags
While Google Analytics pairs dimensions and metrics of the same scope together for you in standard reports, you will have to
Manually set the scope for any Custom Dimensions or Custom Metrics you create.
You can send Custom Metrics with a particular value for every hit on a page or you can
Manually specify different values for individual hits.
You only want to use the term field if you are
Manually tagging a paid search campaign linke Bing or Yahoo!.
By comparing segments, we can analyze the effectiveness of various
Marketing campaigns that brought users to Androiid product pages.
Attribution Modeling can help you better allocate and invest your
Marketing time and budget.
If you have a keyword with a high conversion rate but low number of impressions (or number of times an ad was shown), you
May want to raise your bid for that keyword, so the ad is shown more often and reaches a larger audience.
You'll want to take some time to define your business objectives and how you expect to

Dimensions are often paired with
Metrics, which are the actual numbers in a data set.
Google Analytics can collect behavioral data from a variety of systems such as
Mobile applications, online point-of-sales systems, video game consoles, customer relationship management systems, or other internet-connected platforms.
If your site has a comparatively high bounce rate on a mobile browser, you may need to create a
Mobile-optimized version of your website with streamlined content and a simpler navigation.
Filters can help refine your data and make it
More readable in your reports.
Label can help you make your event reports
More readable.
Predefined filters are templates for the
Most common filters you'll use.

To better reflect how your business is organized, you can set up
Multiple properties under each Analytics account.
User Segments can span
Multiple sessions with a maximum date range of 90 days.
Unlike the tracking code, which sends hits automatically, if you want to collect data from a system outside of Google, you
Must pass the data collection hits manually in a URL string.
To verify that the campaign is collecting data properly, type the
Name of the campaign into the filter in the "Campaigns" section of Google Analytics.
Campaign can communicate the
Name of your marketing campaign such as "2015-Back-To-School" or "2015-Holiday-Sale"

Custom Metrics let you collect metrics that are specific to your business and this can be the
Numbe rof ads that loaded on a page, the bandwidth that the page consumed when it loaded, or the total number of brand pageviews that each of your marketing channels leads to.
You can use the Landing Pages report to monitor the
Number of bounces and the bounce rate for each landing page.
Active users measures the
Number of unique users who initiated sessions on your site over the last 7, 14, or 30 days.
After you finish configuring your audience and clicked apply, you can see the estimated
Number of users in the audience you just defined.
Audience Overview Report shows aggregate Auidience metricts like
Number of users, pages they visited in a session, average session duration, and bounce rate.
You can choose to view the data in a dashboard as a
Number, a timeline, a map, a table, a pie char, or a bar graph.
Since we want to total up pageviews, we can send a basic integer
Of "one" with each hit through formating type in custom metrics.
Dimensions and Metrics example, the google store sells t-shirts in red, yellow, green, and blue. You can track how many total shirts across all colors sold and get a metric

In the table with MCF channel grouping we can see the impact of out
Paid Search campaigns and how many conversions it drove.
MCF reports can indicate the time it took to go from initial interest to purchase. This conversion path data includes interactions across virtually all digital channels including
Paid and organic search, referral sites, affiliates, social networks, and email campaigns.
"Term" is used to identify the keyword for
Paid search Campaign.
Like Custom Dimensions, each Custom Metric appears as a
Parameter of index-value pairs.
Configuration setting examply, applying a filter to online include data from a
Particular country or region that's important to your business.
Each goal type is trigered by a
Particular user action.
The "userStatus" variable is what the Store's custom Javascript code
Passes to the Custom Dimension to use in reports.
Hover over the green check icon next to the report name to view the
Percent of sessions that the resport is based on.
Data is compiled into analytics reports, which you can use to
Perform in-depth analysis to better understand your customers and their purchase journy.
Metrics are based on calculations Google Analytics
Performed during processing when it categorized the data it collected into users and sessions.
Because you don't want users exiting from important pages like a shopping cart checkout, it's a good idea to
Periodically review the exit pages report to minimize unwanted exits.
If you set a filter to exclude data on a view, that data will be
Permanently removed during processing from the reports in the view and cannot be recovered.
The "Pivot" view creates a
Pivot table in which both rows and columns can show different dimension values for comparison.
The filters you choose to implement will depend on your specific measurement objectives so it's important to
Plan what data you want to collect before you set up your filters.
The measurement protocol lets you send data from any web-connected device like
Point-of-sale systems or web-connected kiosks to Google Analytics.
When the custom JavaScript collects whether users came from the discount URL link or not, it will
Populate that index and value variable with the user status.
Switching the geographic heat map to show "percent of New Sessions" lets you identify
Potential new markets based on new user traffic to your website.

What Google Analytics data can be used to define a remarketing audience?
Pre-defined Segment; Custom Segment
You can define you audience from a
Preconfigured list of audience definitions.
Two filter types
Predefined, and custom filters.
You won't be able to apply a Custom Dimension to data you have
Previously collected.
Use the filter field at the top of the table to include only rows where the
Primary dimension contains your filter term.
Two Types of Dashboards
Private and shared.
You'll also need to cerate some additional code to pass information like
Product ID, page type, and total value.
If the Google Merchandise Store wanted to see which products were most popular among employees and retail customres, we can open the
Product Performance report under Conversions in Ecommerce and add the secondary dimension we set up of "User Category" (our custom dimension)
If you've set up Enhanced Ecommerce within google Analytics, you can pass additional e-commerce data like
Product category, whether items have been added or removed from a shopping, and how many times users viewed a product on a website.
If you want the dimension to group data associated with a particular product, you will set a
Product-level scope.
A "transaction" hit (AKA "e-commerce" hit) can pass data to Analytics about e-commerce purchases such as
Products purchased, transaction ID, and "stock keeping units" (SKUs)
The Google Store differentiated the "content" tag for their email newsletters by whetehr they were offeirng
Promotions or not.
If you ran a marketing campaign during a specific week, you could track if it
Prompted higher revenue per user and run similar campaigns in the future.
Each analytics account has a limited number of
Properties
What are macro-conversions in a measurement plan? - The metric data used to measure business success -The main website actions users take that accomplish stated business goals -The secondary website actions users take that lead to main actions -A list of keyboard shortcuts for measurement tasks in Google Analytics
The main website actions users take that accomplish stated business goals
"Source" provides more information about
The medium.
The "Devices" report lets you see additional details about the devices used to browse your site. This includes
The mobile device name, brand, service provider, input selector, operating system, and other dimensions like screen resolution.
Label is an optional value used to further describe teh elemnts you're tracking like
The name of a video.
Path Position
The number of interactions involved in the conversion.
What is a "metric" in Google Analytics?
The numbers in a data set often paired with dimensions.
In which order does Google Analytics filter data? Alphabetical order by filter name The order in which the filters were last edited The order in which the filters are applied Randomized order
The order in which the filters are applied
The "Landing Pages" report under "Site Content" lists
The pages of your website where users first arrived.
Bounce Rate
The percentage of users who left after viewing a single page on your site and taking no additional action.
What is the "Bounce Rate" in Google Analytics?
The percentage of visits when a user landed on your website and exited without any interactions.
The "pie chart" icon helps you compare
The percentages of a whole.
You can change the filter in the source/medium report to "google" (by typing it) to see
The performance for all of our various Google marketing activities.
Session
The period time a user is actively engaged with your website, app, etc. All usage data (Screen Views, Events, Ecommerce, etc.) is associated with a session.
Analysis
The process of developing hypotheses based on your expectations and figuring out why your metrics match or don't match those expectations.
You can choose which metric from your report should display in the pie chart using
The pull down menu of the pie chart.
You can include a regular expression that recongizes the main part of the URL before
The query parameter puts it in a variable and overwrites the entire URL with that variable. This renders these page URLs identical in reporting.
After Google analytics has finished processing, you can access and analyze your data using
The reports.
Google analytics data isn't case sensitive, so pages in the All Pages report may show
The same URL multiple times.
You can only pair metrics with dimesnionns if they are both in
The same scope.
Views that have filters applied may have fewer sessions in
The sampled calculation
Example of using dashboards, you could gather a list of critical business metrics that show
The satte of your business at a glance or compare different reports side-by-side.
You can specify multiple filters that make up conditions within
The segment you are targeting.
Google Analytics can identify users over multiple sessions, as long as
The sessions happen in the same browser on the same device.
Explorer, Flat Table
The standard Analytics report that includes a line graph and a data table, search and sort options, and secondary dimensions.
Pageview, Event, and Transaction hits are
The three most common hits.
Pageviews
The total number of times that included your Analytics trakcing code were displayed to users.
When a user lands on your site, the Google Analytics tracking code automatically captures several attributes (or dimensions) about where the user came from. Including
The traffic medium, source, and makreing campaign name.
It will take a little time for the filter to catch all of
The traffic.
Distination/Pageviews and Events are
The two most common types of Goals, but you can also set up additional goals to measure user engagement.
We can name each step in our funnel and add
The unique part of the URL
Every time a page loads, the tracking code will and send updated information about
The user's activity. Google analytics groups this activity into a period of time called a "session."
You can mouse over the question market next to each Audience in "Define Audience" to learn more about
The users that those Audiences target.
Dimensions and Metrics example, the google store sells t-shirts in red, yellow, green, and blue. Dimensions would be more useful then metrics and would include
The various kinds of shirts that were sold, which colors of t-shirts sold the most, or compare sales across men's and women's shirts.
To navigate to different views, in the Admin section use
The view selector menu.
Setting up a "test view" tests
The view settings page.
Different businesses will implement the JavaScript tracking code into their websites in different ways, depending on
Their data collection method and what data they wish to collect.
If you only have access permissions for a view
Then you won't have permission to modify the property or account associated with that view.
Navigate tot he property in which you want to create the dynamic attributes. Under property, click Audience Definitions, then Dynamic Attributes. Click New Attribute.
Then you'll be taken to the Dynamic Attribute Linking.
Action is the action the user took when
They initiated the event.
The tracking code could tell us how many users bought an item like an Android doll by tracking whether
They made it to the purchase confirmation page.
Limitations to note about differentiating user. Since Analytics uses a browser cookie to determine unique users over a given session
This information will be lost if a user clears or has blocked that cookie in their web browser.
Mixing the Event Category dimension with the Time on Page metric won't work because
This mixes a hit-level dimension with a session-level metric. Two different scopes.
Date range slector lets you set the
Time period in which you want to analyze report data.
A site with a goal to get users to watch videos may not want sessions to
Timeout after thirty minutes.
Analytics can derive the "Time on Page" by taking the
Timestamp of a pageview hit and subtracting that from the timestamp of the next pageview hit.
When planning out Custom Metrics, think about how you want those metircs
To appear in your reports.
Cross-domain trakcing
To collect data from two websites with different URLs using a single Google Analytics property, what feature must be set up? (flipped)
The geographic heat map top of the "geo" report can adjust
To display different metrics.
Why is it important to keep one unfiltered view when using filters with Google Analytics? To ensure you can always access the original data In order to configure Goals In order to use a filter for multiple views There is no reason to have an unfiltered view
To ensure you can always access the original data
As you encounter more complex questions about your customers' behavior, you can create segments
To isolate subsets of data and find opportunities to improve your website's performance.
Naming conventions, Typically you'll use single words
To name your tags.
Custom Dimension
To set up Dynamic Remarketing, what must first be created in Google Analytics? (flipped)
You can use a spreadsheet
To simplify the process of bulk URL building.
You can define a new Audience from Scratch. The Audience Builder is very similar
To the "Custom Segment' builder.
Value is the metric that will be attached
To the hit.
New vs. Returning Users
To the right and underneath the line charg, is a pie chart illustrating the percentage of this.
If you share a dashboard with others, they can change the information that shows on their dashboard, but their changes will only be visible
To them.
If you hit "verify' or "re-verify" on goal detail and see that the conversion rate is above 0, it means we'll be able
To track data
If a step is required to complete the goal, move the "required" toggel
To use
Custom Dimension
To view data in reports by user categories such as Bronze, Gold, and Platinum status levels, what Google Analytics feature is needed to collect this data? (flipped)
With Demographic Metrics you can also select "Country" or "city" to view the
Top 10 values for those dimensions.
If you click into the dimensions on the bottom left of the report, you can view the
Top dimensions and metrics in each category.
You can jump to tthe category, action, or label simply by clicking on the navigation links at the
Top of the table report.
You can find Multi-Channel Funnel reports in the conversions section. In the Overview report, you can see the store's
Total conversions, as well as click-assisted, impression0assisted, and rich media-assisted conversions.
Metrics may be calculated in aggreagate such as
Total sessions, users, or pageviews.
A goal of tracking how many users reach the checkout confirmation page won't
Track actual revenue; it will simply track how far uses get at each stage of the goal and where they might abandon the process.
The goal of the trakcing code is to
Track each user interaction that occurs on your website.
In Google Analytics, you use a feature called "goals" to
Track the conversions of signining up for a newsletter or buying a product.
If you click into the category, you can see the associated Actions. This can help you view the various interaction states that were
Tracked for a Category in one place.
The Google Merchandise Store is in a big push to sell Android-branded merchandise and wants to know which marketing channels are contributing to Android merchandise pageviews. They can include
Tracking code on Android merchandise pages that fires with each pageview hit and increments a Custom Metric in Google Analytics.
Other data sources is the third step into how google processes data where it joins data from the
Tracking code with other data sources.
Extra bits of information that you add to the url links of your online markeitng or advertising materials (campaign tags) include
Tracking parameters followed by an equals sign and a single word or hyphenated words that you designate.
Cookies instaled by Google analytics make it easy to track
Traffic on a single website URL domain or subdomain by default.
Refferal Marketing Channels
Traffic that comes from another website.
When you save your Custom Dimensions, Analytics will provide you with a
Trakcing code to place on the pages where your products appear.
If your campaign contains a coupon, try submitting a
Transaction with the coupon applied.
Once configuration settings have been applied to your data, Google analytics will
Transform the data into dimensions, calcuate metrics associated with those dimensions, and store each dimension in its own aggregated database table for fast retrieval.
Unique Events are how many users have
Triggered the event.
If default Google Analytics tracking code is installed on pages with different domains, Analytics will count these users and sessions separately. True False

User ID feature
Google Analytics can help you define audiences based on
User behavior and customize your campigns to increase your conversions.
Micro conversions are metrics that help you better understand the
User behavior that leads to macro conversions.
Hit will also include information like a randomly-generated
User identifier.
Cross-domain tracking will recognize when a
User navigates between related websites in the same session.
Through segmentation you can create
User segments or session segments.

Segments applied to reports can analyze data for which of the following groups?
Users 25 to 34 years of age who have their browsers set to spanish; users who viewed a webpage, then watched a video; users who engaged in social media or email campaigns.
Goal for successful online checkouts, we'll set up a funnel visualization, so we can see if
Users are dropping off on their way to the confirmation page.
Event Tracking is a great way to know if
Users are engaging with your website and performing intended actions.
In the "Create New Segments" category, you select demographics for age 25 to 34 and language contains "es" for Spanish, which fill filter the data for
Users between the ages of 25 and 34 who ahve their browsers set to Spanish.
When you add a secondary dimension of "Device Category to the report, it's easy to see what happens to
Users on different devices, as they respond to your digital marketing campaigns.
The line graph by default shows a data point for the number of
Users on each day over your selected date range.
What does the "Users" metric measure?
Users that had at least one session on your site in the given date range
What does the "Users" metric measure? -The total number of visits to your website - Users that had at least one session on your site in the given date range - Users that landed on the homepage of your website -Users who have signed up to an email newsletter on your website
Users that had at least one session on your site in the given date range
Audiences are made up of browser cookies from
Users that visited a site with Google Analytics implemented and the remarketing tracking code enabled. This allows you to target those users.
Ideally, traffic should be "high quality", meaning that
Users who arrive from a source engage with the website or complete a conversion.
With the comparison view, you can use the drop-down menu to select which metric
Should be displayed.
If your marketing activities and site content encourage users to visit and return to your site, the active users in each time frame
Should grow.
By default, the pageviews report will
Show data by the page URI.
Behavior Reports
Show how people engaged on your site including which pages the viewed, and their landing and exit pages.
Since Google analytics is case sensitive, a campaign named "PROMO1" in all upercase will
Show up separately from a campaign named "promo1" in all lowercase.
Acquisition Reports
Show you which channels brought users to your site.
The destination URL is the URL of the page that is
Shown when the user converts or completes the conversion process.
The "Exit Pages" report under "Site Content"
Shows the pages where users left your site.
Audience Reports
Shows you characteristics about your users.
"Active Users" report
Shows you how many users had at least one session on your site in the last day, seven days, 14 days, and 30 days.

Examples of Micro Conversions
Signing up for an email coupon or a new product notification
If one your website objectives is a trial signup, complete the
Signup process on your site in incognito mode to see if the URL is working.
Looking at User Type as a secondary dimension can help inform your
Site content and marketing campaign strategy to acquire even more users.
Cross-domain tracking is also known as
Site linking, and it will recognize when a user navigates between related websites in the same session.
To enable Dynamic Remarketing, you will need to update
Site tags
You can use the "Overview" report under "Mobile" to see a breakdown of your traffic based on
Smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices.
Aditional Hits include
Social Hits, Page Timing Hits
Sampling
Sometimes Analytics has to crunch through so much data, that in order to return your report faster, it will only analyze a sample of the data collected.
"Advanced" next to the search box above the data table, lets you apply even more
Sophisticated rules for filtering. An advanced technique.

Once you've set up remarketing, you can create specific "Audiences" that let you
Target groups of users based on common attributes.
If you see users dropping off in the Funnel Visualization, you may want to investigate further. There could be
Technical issues with this stage of the funnel, preventing users from proceeding.
Users' preferences for certain types of web content may include things like
Technology, music, travel, or TV.

For Google analytics 360 customers aggregating data across domains
Using a feature called "rollup reporting" you can aggregate data automatically from multiple properties into a new combined property.
Two ways to add data from external systems include
Using the measurement protocol and linking to other Google accounts.
Use dashboards and saved reports to easily retrieve data that's
Valuable to your business or share them with other stakeholders.
The view level lets you set Google analytics "Goals". These goals are a
Valuable way to track conversations, or business objectives, from your website.
The date range selector has preset dat ranges that
Vary based on the cohort size.
The pageviews metric includes reptead
Veiwings of a singple page by the same user.
Before launching a campaign with your link you'll want to
Verify that your tracking tags are working correctly.
"Content" can be used to differentiate
Versions of a promotion.
To enable Dynamic Remarketing, you will need to find
Verticle attributes.
When you link your Google Analytics accoutnt to your Google AdWords account, you can
View AdWords click and cost data alongside your site engagement data in Google Analytics; Create remarketing lists in Analytics to use in AdWords campaigns; import Analytics goals and transactions into AdWords as conversions; and view Analytics site engagement data in AdWords.
"Read and Analyze" lets users
View data, analyze reports, and create dashboards but restricts them from making changes to the settings or adding new users.
Let's say our business was making a push into mobile and only wanted to analyze mobile traffic in a specific view. You can set up a custom "include-only" filter on the
View for Device category and specify a value of "Mobile". The custom filter will look at the criteria specified and match it to any relevant hits that Google Analyics has collected for that view.
To set up a test view, at the top left click the
View selector pull-down menu. Then select create new view and after naming it click "create view".
Yiou can only set up to 20 goals per
View, so be thoughtful about which goals are most important to your business.
The Google Merchandise Store can collect product IDs from the merchandise that users
Viewed on their website and later advertise those products to those same users to bring them back to the Store website and make a purchase.
Each property has a limited number of
Views
The Google Store sells merchandise from their website across different geographical regions. If they wanted to see data for individual regions, they could create separate
Views for individual regions (N. America, Europe, Asia)
For the Google Store, the tracking code could show us how many users
Visited a page that sells drinkware versus a page that sells housewares.
Bellow "Geo" are a set of behavior reports that help you understand how often users
Visited and returned to your website.
Remarketing is a powerful way of re-engaging users who have
Visited your website, but didn't complete a conversion or make a purchase.
The default segment includes all of the Users that
Visitedyour site in the given date range.
Destination
