A Call to Action: The New Google Analytics 4 Becomes a Business Tool Thanks to AI

A Call to Action: The Best Marketing Results Are Found Where Marketing, Public Relations and Content Intersect

By Ed Pierce, Fleet Industry Marketing Consultant
August 8, 2022

Google Analytics has been the centerpiece of website performance reporting for years. Now, however, significant changes are underway with the launch of Google Analytics 4 (GA4), which brings much more insight into website performance through AI to achieve greater visitor insight, predictive traffic capability, and more meaningful metrics than ever before.

An Unsurpassed Website Reporting Tool
To understand the value of GA4 feature changes, let’s start with the advantages of the traditional Google Analytics tool:

Businesses that invest in a website want to know how visitors interact with it. Knowing what visitors seek can help the marketing team improve its navigation and product/service offerings.

The New Google Analytics 4 Becomes a Business Tool Thanks to AIAnalytics reveal where a website’s information might be confusing or inadequate, what products generate viewership, what marketing campaigns succeed, and so on. It is a crucial indicator of whether visitors find what they want on the site.

Marketers can find out which channels generate the largest volume of website visitors using Google Analytics. The information in the Audience section discloses the age, gender, interests, device usage, and geographic location of website visitors.

Detailed Reporting Means Better Decision-making
There is no need for entering data into documents and spreadsheets since Google Analytics provides immediate access to performance reports — either templates or customized. The program is device-agnostic and integrates seamlessly with other Google products. All in all, a marketer can monitor customer activity, web content, device usage, and much more.

Google Analytics can supply enough details about site visitors and trends to help shape and fine-tune a company’s strategy. Best of all, the app is free!

Integrating Data from All of a Company’s Digital Presence
Global data graphicMarketers know that social media posting can increase traffic and keep customers engaged, but Google Analytics can help identify which platforms drive site visitors. For example, an abundance of traffic may be coming from Twitter. Still, more customer involvement is coming from Facebook, justifying an increase in budget for that social network to attract more customers.

Learn How to Build Engaging Content
Again, marketing specialists consistently pursue quality content to increase website visitors and improve search engine rankings. Blogs, infographics, and FAQ pages depend on relevant, easy-to-understand, search engine-friendly content written to optimize the user experience.

Using Google Analytics, marketers can determine the most-viewed and most-shared content to determine which blogs are engaging viewers. Smart marketing pros continuously monitor this information to improve content and attract customers.

Managing the Transition to Google Analytics 4
While the traditional Google Analytics, now called Universal Analytics with the introduction of Google Analytics 4, is still active and should be available for the foreseeable future.

Seo OptimisationThe new Google Analytics 4 application takes a quantum leap forward in performance tracking to supplement many of the key Google Analytics features. It provides substantially more information on how users interact with the website or web applications (for the first time), how to collect data, and how to overcome online changes such as the demise of third-party cookies.

GA4 makes tracking a wide variety of metrics simple. In addition to expanding its AI use to predict audience and metrics, GA4 is expanding its AI use to predict audience and metrics.

Quickly retargeting audiences and identifying prospective buyers can be accomplished using this method. Regular reports can also be filled with AI, and websites can be personalized and retargeted using AI-generated insights.

GA4 is designed to evolve into a business intelligence tool, not just a reporting one, but now is the time to start collecting data and learning the new platform. If you already have Google Analytics, the GA4 Setup Assistant is available now to gather information.
