In this episode, we dive into the upcoming transition from Universal Analytics (UA) to Google Analytics 4 (GA4). With the official sunset of UA approaching on July 1, 2023, it’s crucial to set up GA4 sooner rather than later to ensure a smooth transition. We unpack the terminology changes, including the shift from “views” to “engaged sessions” and “events & conversions” instead of “goals.” Additionally, we highlight the 24-hour delay in GA4 data, where insights won’t appear until the following day. Whether you’re just starting the migration process or looking to optimize your GA4 implementation, this episode provides valuable guidance and practical tips to ensure a successful transition to the new era of Google Analytics.
