MIGRATION FROM UNIVERSAL ANALYTICS TO GA4

Don't Let Your Google Analytics Data Slip Away

Google Analytics 3 (Universal Analytics), the statistical software that powers the majority of websites - likely including yours, has been phased out by Google in favor of Google Analytics 4.

Issue at hand: this phase-out puts you at risk of losing all your data.

The demise of one of the internet's most crucial tools

Google Analytics 3, more commonly known as Universal Analytics, stands as the quintessential tool for statistical tracking.

To put it simply, Google Analytics is utilized by 56% of websites.

If your site was crafted by a professional or developed by an agency, chances are high that it's included in this percentage.

So, what's its purpose?

Google Analytics effortlessly gathers ongoing statistical data from your website.

This data is invaluable for your teams and marketing providers, enabling them to:

  • Make informed decisions
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of implemented strategies
  • Boost the profitability of further marketing endeavors (such as advertising, etc.)

In essence: Google Analytics plays a pivotal role in any marketing and business strategy.

The challenge your business faces

The challenge we're facing is the imminent shutdown of Universal Analytics, making way for its successor: Google Analytics 4 (GA4). With this transition, the wealth of data you've accumulated will be irretrievably lost.

In fact, as of July 1st, 2023, your site has ceased to gather new data, and soon, the historical data you rely on will vanish.

But there's more to consider. Opting to switch to GA4 down the line won't recover the lost data. What isn't being collected now is gone for good.

Even if you're not leveraging this data at the moment, it's invaluable for future marketing endeavors. It holds key insights into your online presence, visitor and prospect behavior, and your website's overall performance.

However, all is not lost just yet.

No worries, there's a way out.

With Universal Analytics on its way out, its successor, GA4, stands ready to take the reins.

You can transition your historical data to this new platform and update your site's configuration to GA4.

However, this data migration and Google Analytics update won't happen by magic.

Furthermore, it might pose quite the challenge for those not well-versed in these tools.

But that's something we can handle for you.
