    Study Notes

    Google Analytics Features and Functionality

    • Custom Dimension collects company-specific data, such as Member Status, allowing tailored tracking of user attributes.
    • Google Analytics tracks different kinds of hits, including pageviews, events, and transactions, providing a comprehensive view of user interactions.
    • User ID must be enabled to recognize users across devices, essential for understanding user behavior across multiple platforms.
    • In Multi-Channel Funnel reports, conversions are credited to the Last campaign, search, or ad, which helps in understanding the final touchpoint that led to conversion.

    Reports and Data Interpretation

    • The Landing Pages report shows which pages users initially arrive on when visiting a website, important for assessing page performance.
    • The Measurement Protocol is necessary for sending data from web-connected devices, such as point-of-sale systems, to Google Analytics.
    • Default "mediums" in Google Analytics include referral, organic, and cpc, but "google" is not considered a default medium.
    • Attribution modeling determines how sales and conversions are credited based on the touchpoints involved in the conversion path.

    Metrics and Dimensions

    • Not all metric-dimension combinations are valid; for instance, Sessions / Bounce rate is not a valid combination.
    • All Traffic reports indicate how users arrive at a website, providing insights into traffic sources and their effectiveness.
    • Custom Dimensions can function as primary or secondary dimensions in both custom and standard reports, enhancing data analysis capabilities.

    Goals and Conversions

    • Multi-Channel Funnels functionality requires Goals or Ecommerce to be set up, enabling a more detailed analysis of user interactions leading to conversions.
    • The Comparison data table displays a comparison of report metrics against the website's average, aiding performance assessment.
    • View filters are applied sequentially, ensuring data is processed in a structured manner.
    • Auto-tagging is used primarily for collecting data from Google Ads campaign traffic, streamlining the tracking process.

    User Behavior and Interaction

    • Goal Flow report tracks where users start or exit within the conversion funnel, providing insights into user journey and drop-off points.
    • Event hits can include parameters such as Category, Action, Label, and Value, allowing for detailed event tracking and reporting.
    • Remarketing audiences cannot be defined for users who visited a physical store by default, highlighting limitations in audience targeting.
    • Google Analytics Goals cannot track a customer’s lifetime value, focusing instead on more immediate actions like purchases or sign-ups.

    Custom Reporting and Smart Goals

    • In Custom Reports, metrics and dimensions must share the same scope to ensure accurate reporting and data correlation.
    • Machine-learning algorithms are utilized to create Smart Goals, automating the process of determining high-value user interactions.
