Description

The course follows the previous one "Ultimate Google Analytics course + 50 practical examples" and is designed for all of you who already spent some time in Google Analytics and want to enrich your current knowledge. I assume you know how the session is defined and who/what user is :).

The course will cover topics such as Attribution, Assisted conversions, Top conversion paths, Scopes or a couple of custom things like dimensions and metrics, alerts or reports. We'll explain how and why the volume of sessions and clicks differs and if you evaluate paid campaigns from tools like Google Ads or Facebook Ads you will be surprised how misleading data you're driven by.

Who this course is for:

  • Google Analytics users who already know a bit more than how interface looks like :).
