Our Analytics Setup Process

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between GA4 and Universal Analytics?
Universal Analytics was based on sessions and pageviews. GA4 is event-based, offering more flexible tracking, cross-device reporting, and better privacy controls. Universal Analytics stopped processing data on July 1, 2023, so migrating to GA4 is essential.
Do I need Google Tag Manager?
We highly recommend it. GTM allows you to add and update tracking codes without a developer. It streamlines the process of adding Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, and other marketing scripts alongside Google Analytics.
Will you help me understand my data?
Yes. While the setup is technical, we provide a walkthrough of your new dashboards and explain how to interpret the key metrics. We can also provide ongoing monthly analytics consulting if needed.
