[@monicafernandez5204]

I am watching from Canada. Thank you so much for took the time to make these tutorials. God bless you!

[@SeanGarner]

This is hands down the best step by step guide for setting up the GA4 account! Thank you! Going to use this for staff training video. Appreciate all the value you provide on your channel!

[@blush-weddings]

this was much more informative than the course provided by google! Thank you for this!

[@iSnyrt]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@adityavardhanjain]

Introduced the whole thing to a beginner like me in an hour. What a great tutorial!!

[@henrythomas7112]

Thanks for the new video! I’m looking forward to seeing what other content you post! Always good to learn as much as you can!

[@plmfb]

Thank you so much for this AWESOME tutorial and overview!!!

[@SolitaryAdventurer]

Hi Benjamin. I recently discovered your channel, and I just wanted to say thank you so much for your tutorials. I've watched a few of them and your step by step guides, pacing and visualizations are easy to follow and really helpful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!

[@LovesData]

Awesome! That’s great to hear, and thanks for watching.

[@hopezhang8278]

Also coming from Google's official GA4 tutorial. This is so much clearer, more understandable, and complete than the Google one. Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@MikeA99]

Amazing video, thank you Benjamin!

[@pamelawillover9618]

This was an excellent video guide for setting up Google Analytics!

[@Lilita31]

Great video! Explained in simple terms and easy to follow.

[@PiexSu]

The best video for understanding GA4 as a total GA4-noob like me. 😅 Thank you so much for this work!

[@LeoMitchell-q7m]

I really liked the video! Everything is clear and precise, you are real professionals!

[@omarrd33]

Incredible video. The tonality, sequence of info, coverage of important features.

[@MiaCarter-y2c]

It's a pleasure to watch your videos! Everything is at the highest level, it is clear that you work with your heart.

[@joeg816]

Very nice tutorial. Amazing how complex this has become over the years. It is like flying the space shuttle. Overkill for most of us commoners...

[@user-ht4ds4tv5m]

Great video - thanks for sharing. I was not aware of this switch and accessed my web-site after 2 years. I see a GA-4 property, perhaps automatically set-up, but do not see any data flowing. Do you have a ny video that shows how to fix on a going forward basis for those who did not do it in time in July 2023? Thanks,

[@OscarEdwards-d7f]

The content is just great! It is clear that you put your heart and time into its creation.

[@Tallgeese23]

Thank you for sharing this. More power to your channel

[@alekssiroki8131]

Thanks for the video. Here are some other issues I'm struggling with - just to give an idea for the next video(s) 1. Facebook campaigns - how do you track them in GA4? All I see is "social" but I have let's say 3 campaigns on Meta. There is this option to create a custom url - how to see that url in GA4? 2. Page optimisation tips - directly related to GA4. Here I'm struggling with 2 things. First, is the simple "add Event Tracking Code to Phone Number Link?" I still don't understand is it google tag and then something in analytics or how do I track how many people clicked on the "phone button" on the website? Second, how to track individual pages - I have, let's say 10 landing pages on the website - I need data for all 10. So, here you go, these are examples of pain points connected to GA4 after it's been set up. Cheers!

[@Abdullah-z6w2g]

@21:38 Can I add more than 2 dimensions to the report?

[@Amin22937]

Great job. Google analytics demo has been updated. Wish you can Amed this video with updates. Thanks

thanks for all of this tutorial, thanks from Spain

[@shmuelmir]

Perfect Training

[@LilyHall-q4s]

A very interesting and informative video, your presentation of the material is just great, you are really good!

[@digitalanalyticspro]

Wonderful session

[@bz3105]

Thanks for posting. The other videos I found on this didn't cover the latest version of Google Analytics.

[@RupsanaAkther-d3u]

today I discovered your channel from Google truly speaking your tutorial is so good

[@androidphone6972]

Nice. I’m looking to pass the analytics certification. Will the content on this video cover all aspects of the required to attempt the certification

[@thisiswilson]

You're the GOAT!

[@LovesData]

Too kind. Thank you!

[@MaverickGale-b6i]

The video is great, informative!

[@Moondreamer21]

I watched this whole tutorial - appreciate it! I already found some Events that had moved over from Universal (these were previously Goals where I tracked opt-in conversion rates and sales/thank you page views), but I made sure they were working OK by going to Admin - Events (+ made sure they were marked as Key Events). You shared the process to create Funnel Visualization Reports through EXPLORE - where I can set up the same parameters. How are these two methods different if I want to track the same things? And most important (I've done a lot of searching on this), how can I track the CONVERSION RATE for these that I've set up. Is there a new term for that? So frustrating :( Thanks again for this resource.

[@princeofstars]

i found this one "On March 21, 2024 Google made a major change to the nomenclature of conversions in GA4, introducing a new name for conversions that aren't specifically tied to Google Ads. The new name is “Key Events”. Conversions are still around, but now they're only attached to Google Ads traffic sources. " so maybe when you add the metrics put Key events because conversions don't show up to me as well !

[@muhammadayazkhan422]

very well explained for newbies #lovesdata thanks

[@kehindekehinde9719]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I just subscribed

It's very informative video. Thank you for it

[@RobertAdams-u8p]

I liked the video. It's very informative. Thank you.😇

[@mannusharma-g4y]

Hi Benjamin. Thank you for this video. Need one clarity on this point "Do I need to learn universal analytics before to learn GA4 better?" - Appreciate your response.

[@LorinTorres]

No, you do not need to worry about Universal Analytics as GA4 is pretty much just the updated replacement

[@curiousabouthealthythings]

Hi, Thanks for the Video, can you please explain whats the difference between User & Traffic Acqusition report?

[@ithemickey]

Hey Benjamin, I am running a KZbin Campaign in Dv360 and my client is looking to improve the user metric in session/ user reprt. Now, im unaware of what the user in ga4 would be equivalent to in dv360 to help them improve. Could you guide me

[@KorbinAriana]

Thanks for the video!

[@khrystynademchyshyn2676]

Extremely Useful! Thanks for this video!

[@digitalwudp]

Very nicely explained

[@thetruthaboutbusiness]

What’s the difference between the good ads overview and the google analytics are they connect ?

[@HussainKwaifa]

Thanks for this tutorial. I hope I find what I am looking for ❤

[@HarperHarris-u2t]

Thank you so much man!

[@lucee_j]

Thanks for this, where can I see the utm link data in the explore reports?

[@andreathiel8182]

I love your videos and they have helped me so much as I work on client accounts! I do have a question - I have a client that recently launched a new website with a new domain. They carried over their GTM with their Google Tag in it, so we are still tracking traffic just fine, but the Data Stream setup didn't change. The Stream URL is still the old domain. Should that be updated? What would it solve or what problems could it create if that was updated? Thank you!

[@24designshop]

I dont have conversions when I try to search in metrics, its because of new version?

[@kalaharikomerc6214]

Great tutorial!

[@travellingkoi1138]

You are a lifesaver! Thank you so much for this great tutorial! I have one question: If my website exists since one year but I'm only using Analytics now, can I still see the analytics from the past year? I'm an analytics beginner, sorry if this a stupid question :)

[@LovesData]

Glad you like it! Google Analytics only collects data once you install the tracking code. So it won’t include any historical data before this.

[@zueriseebarbie]

@@LovesDatathank you so much for your answer!

Excellent tutorial, thank you.

hiii

[@billluo6170]

Hi , Ben, Do you need to install tag from GA4 to the website also? because GTM tag already installed on the website. Two tags are different right?

[@LorinTorres]

Correct. You can use gtag or GTM to add it to your site. Don't do both or it will double everything. GTM is better because you can manage the tags directly in GTM rather than needing to place tags on your site every time. Hope this makes since and I hope it helps. 🙂

[@DelaniNxumalo-h6j]

very informative, that you.

[@danangesaffan]

perfect sir ... really amazing

[@ahmedmadbouly409]

thanks brother

[@Nurumyan]

Great Video.

[@taliagertman3905]

Excellent video - However, I don't see the "Conversions" below Data display

[@LovesData]

Conversions are now ‘Key Events’. I cover this here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGiXaIuYYs6ea6M

[@pradumnasaraf]

Thank you for the video!

Do You have a tutorial to get gclid?

Not currently, but I’ll add it to my list of requested topics.

Coursera is worst,it got me confused for almost two months..the mr Micheal is a bad lecturer

[@ashokvaswani123]

At 6.23 mins you have shown "Choose your business objectives" and you have selected "Get baseline reports" . I cannot find this screen in my GA4 account

[@HarperBrown-mr9bc]

Well done

Thanks. I do i get full version of this audio.

Thanks!

[@Abdullah-z6w2g]

The link from the email to download page of the glossary does not work.

[@SuperNurik89]

Thanks! How can I see the used keywords to find my website?

[@LovesData]

You will need to link Google Search Console to see organic keywords.

[@thakanesechache]

This is such valuable information. How long did it take you to learn all of this?🙆

[@B-BlessingSolutions]

wonderful

[@1596vijay]

Why are we choosing Google tag instead of Google analytics in Google tag manager tag type?

[@LovesData]

You will find selecting ‘Google Analytics’ gives you the same Google Tag.

[@ryanmccain1158]

great thanks

[@lazerfreeze7023]

I have a question. If I have a personal website where I don’t plan on receiving money, can I still use Google analytics? I don’t have a licensed business and I just want to use Google Analytics for a personal project. Would I be able to use Google Analytics despite not having a business?

[@LovesData]

I use it on my personal site.

[@lazerfreeze7023]

@@LovesDataThank you for your response. I heard from a friend that Google Ads updated to needing registered companies. I got scared that Google Analytics would do the same.

[@fannyclaireophelie3751]

[@LOKESHWAGH-li7ct]

is google signal disabled now?

[@LovesData]

For reporting identities, yes, but it’s still used for advertising features and demographic reporting.

[@LOKESHWAGH-li7ct]

thanks mate@@LovesData

[@parefeu]

That's unfortunately not work for me, nothing appears in debug view..

[@LovesData]

If nothing appears in the DebugView, a different Measurement ID is implemented on the website or there’s an issue with the implementation.

[@parefeu]

@@LovesData I found the issue. I had a plug in for cookies, and they installed the gtm tag .. so because the gtm tag was installed twice, it didn't work properly

[@jihadkhanjihad-p8l]

we will want one playlist there learning basic to advance

[@Kimhairstonmusic]

Why do I have to do this?

I love these videos - but who says "d-a-r-t-a" ? There is no "R" sound in data.

[@sportsnus]

Google must have updated again... smh... I'm missing so many of the things you're showing in this video. My analytics page is missing A LOT of those options. There is no "Life Cycle" section what so ever for example.

[@LovesData]

It hasn't been updated (yet). I mention this at the start of the video. The selection you make when you create the property controls which preconfigured reports are available. To adjust this you can use the 'Library' option which is on the bottom left corner after you select 'Reports'. And I touch on the 'Library' option in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX23kIiIgLWqg9k
