How to Use Google Analytics 4 for Marketing
Do you use analytics to measure your marketing? Are you prepared for the shutdown of Google Universal Analytics?
The old version of GA, officially known as Universal, is set to be retired next year. If you want to ensure a smooth transition, you should get comfortable with the new service now.
Google is notorious for closing down products suddenly—from ambitious moonshot projects to beloved apps. But at least this time, they've given us plenty of notice.
UA will stop receiving web traffic data on July 1st, 2023. That means even if you still have it set up on your website, it won't work any more. Your page will still exist, but there won't be any data to see. And by the end of 2023, you'll no longer be able to access it at all.
Why?
Here's what Google has to say about it:
"In today's measurement landscape, businesses need to navigate new challenges to understand the complex, multi-platform journeys of their customers—all while prioritizing user privacy."
Long story short: analytics need to get better at privacy and attribution.
UA has been having privacy issues for a while. Many states and countries have introduced new privacy laws, such as the GDPR in Europe. The GDPR has very strict rules about exporting or processing the data of European Union citizens outside the EU—which makes it harder for to show you information about your web traffic.
There are also problems with accuracy and attribution. In 2022, about 20% of internet users have an ad blocker installed, which means that UA can't collect data about their behavior online. Competing web browsers have started to offer stronger privacy features in order to attract new users.
Result: the only really accurate attribution data comes from people who use the Chrome browser and don't have ad blockers. That's a much smaller pool of data.
GA4 aims to solve these problems with more flexible tracking, granular data, and simpler set-up. But first, you'll need to make the switch.
