With MRS, you can rest assured your website’s analytics are in the safe hands of experts.

What Our In-depth Analytics Audit Includes

Our Google Analytics auditing service includes a review of the following:

Account Structure

We will review how your account and properties have been set up, proposing improvements, especially in light of the movement from Universal Analytics to GA4.

Filters

We will review how your filters (if any) are now working for you in GA4. If no filters are being used, we will make appropriate recommendations regarding the two filters available in GA4: Developer Traffic and Internal Traffic. GA4 Data filters do not impact historical data but have a permanent effect on future data, so it’s vital they’re set up correctly.

Basic Settings

We will go through and check that all basic settings are set up correctly – for instance, internal search tracking. It’s surprising how often these are overlooked!

Content and Channel Groupings

We will check to see if content groupings have been set up, and make recommendations for how to implement or improve the accuracy of these. We will also make recommendations for custom channel groups.

Missing Data

Noticing a lot of (not set) or (other) fields appearing in your reports? Missing data can be a big problem, and if it starts to account for a large proportion of your traffic, you are only seeing a glimpse of the whole picture.

Ecommerce Tracking

If your transactions and revenue aren’t lining up with your actual business performance, this step is critical. We can investigate why misalignment is happening and outline what actions you can take to prevent this from happening in future.

Event and Conversion Setup

We will review the events and conversions that are being tracked in Analytics. We will ensure conversions are firing and working correctly and are not being overused. We’ll also make sure that you’re tracking the right Events and Conversions for you in GA4.
