Abstract

Google Analytics has an entire set of Acquisition reports, dedicated to categorizing users’ sources of traffic to the site. Did they come from a search engine, a link on a social media site, or a paid advertisement? This chapter will look at the data GA gathers about traffic sources and how you can influence those data with settings in GA and tools in GTM.
