Creating a campaign and how to use UTM in Google Analytics

In the Campaign section of Acquisition, you can see a list of your created campaigns. In this section, we have a topic called UTMs, which help us a lot in tracking campaigns in Google Analytics. For this purpose, when we want to create a campaign, our campaign link must have UTM so that it can be tracked in Google Analytics and get a higher conversion rate. This tutorial uses the Network click ads site to create a campaign and an example to understand this issue better.

How to use UTM in Google Analytics

Enter the site, and after entering, we follow the steps of creating a new campaign until we are asked for the campaign link. To create a UTM link, we search for URL Builder in Google. We select the first option from the search results that belong to Google and enter the URL creation page.

Step 2: The second step of the campaign specification
Campaign Source: Because we use Network in this example, we enter its name.
Campaign Medium: You need to specify the type of advertisement because A network uses PPC click ads. We enter PPC.
Campaign Name: In this section, we enter a name for the campaign, for example, 30% off (optional)
Click on Submit. Now your UTM link is ready.

This link is because if we have other ads in other places and a specific UTM is defined for each one, we can track them easily in Acquisition>Campaigns.
Now we enter the created link in the campaign creation process and the link section and launch our campaign.
