UTM parameters are tags you add to URLs so analytics tools know where visits came from. Tag offline-to-online campaigns as well.
The five parameters
- utm_source: the platform, such as newsletter or instagram.
- utm_medium: the channel type, such as email or social.
- utm_campaign: the campaign name.
- utm_term: paid keyword.
- utm_content: the ad or link variation.
Naming rules
Use lowercase, consistent names and a shared spreadsheet so reports stay clean.
Where to see them
Look in GA4 acquisition reports under source and medium.

Keep naming consistent so reports stay tidy.

- Use lowercase names and a shared naming sheet.
