Join Casey Tuggle as he covers how to accurately assess direct-to-VDP traffic such as social advertising and dynamic retargeting in Google Analytics. Casey will explain why Google Analytics will show errors in session time for single-pages visits, how to fairly judge a "bounce" for low-quality traffic, and how to compare paid traffic vendors against organic results.

Primary Learning Objectives:

  • Fix analytics using Google Tag Manager to accurately measure site traffic.
  • Learn how a "bounce" is defined and can be redefined, to separate low-quality traffic from a high-quality single-page visit.
  • Compare paid search ads with paid dynamic ads and organic traffic using attribution modeling within Google Analytics.
