Ensure Your GA4 Setup is Optimized with a Comprehensive Audit

Identify and resolve inconsistencies, optimize your GA4 setup, and make sure you're capturing the data that matters most.

Why GA4 Audit?

With the complete transition from Universal Analytics (UA) to Google Analytics 4 (GA4), many businesses are navigating uncharted territory. As of today, historical UA data has been deleted, making it more important than ever to ensure your GA4 setup is correctly configured. Whether your GA4 property was automatically created by Google or manually set up, a thorough audit is essential to identify any inconsistencies and optimize your analytics for better decision-making.

Transitioning to GA4 hasn’t been straightforward for many businesses. Common challenges include:

Inconsistencies from Automatic Migration

If your GA4 property was automatically created by Google, it might not align perfectly with your business goals or capture the metrics you need.

Incomplete Setups

Without a custom migration plan, many businesses may have missed critical configurations, leading to gaps in data tracking and reporting.

Outdated or Irrelevant Data

Changes in data collection models mean that old metrics from UA may not translate directly to GA4, potentially skewing reports and analysis.

Suboptimal Event Tracking

GA4’s event-based model is more flexible but requires careful setup to ensure all important user interactions are being tracked accurately.

A comprehensive GA4 audit can uncover these issues and more, ensuring your analytics are aligned with your business objectives and providing the insights you need to grow.

Our GA4 audit process covers all key aspects of your analytics setup to ensure accuracy, consistency, and optimal performance. We focus on:

  • Property and View Configuration: Verifying that your GA4 property and view settings are correctly aligned with your business structure and goals.
