By integrating Google Analytics with your Linkfire account, you can collect and process information from your Linkfire traffic inside the world’s largest web analytics platform. Getting started is simple.
Integrating Google Analytics with Linkfire
The quickest way to start using Google Analytics with Linkfire is to simply paste your tracking ID into your board settings. This will then apply a tracking code to every link created within that board, and it will even automatically supply Google Analytics with event-based actions that users take on your landing pages.
To get started, you’ll have to fetch your Measurement ID within the GA4 relevant Data Stream. Admin -> Data Streams -> Click on the Data Stream. It will look something like this: G-XXXXXXXXXX.
Now go to the “Integrations” section in your board settings, click on “Add integration”, search for Google Analytics and add your “Measurement ID” code.
Click “Done” at the bottom of the page, and you’re done! All of your links inside this board are now being tracked by your own Google Analytics account. They are also tracking the events that you selected in the “Events” section after adding the “Measurement ID”.
How tracking is applied across countries
By default, you will notice that any Google Analytics details you enter will be for the territory called “Default”. This means that these details will be applied whenever a user visits your links, regardless of where in the world they are located. If you want to create separate settings or specify a separate Tracking ID for visitors located in other countries, you can add those countries by searching for them in the “Add territory” field.
Once you have added additional countries, you can select them in the dropdown menu which originally only contained Default. Any countries added in this way will use their specific settings, and the settings specified in the “Default” territory will not apply to them.
