affiliate links tracking on g4a

Hi @cedarteeth,

Thanks for reaching out.

We recommend creating a custom exploration to view data on affiliate link clicks.

To get started, please go to analytics.google.com ? Explore and create a Blank exploration.

Here’s our recommendation of what dimensions and metrics to use under the Variables tab…

Dimensions:

• Is affiliate link
• Link text
• Page title
• Event name
• Affiliate label

Metrics:

• Event count

Once you’ve imported these dimensions and metrics, you’ll then organize it in this way under the Tab Settings…

The row of the report will be Link text, Affiliate label, and Page title
The values of the report will be Event count
A filter for the report will be Is affiliate link exactly matches true
Another filter will be Event name exactly matches click

You’re welcome to experiment with different dimensions or metrics as needed.

For a step-by-step of how to do the above, or to learn more about custom reports in general, please see our guide here: https://www.monsterinsights.com/how-to-create-google-analytics-4-custom-reports-step-by-step/.

I hope this helps, but let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks!

Ok thanks gonna try those things. Just checking if this will be added to the Monsterinsights Google Analytics somehow so it will be easy to do over plugin for the users who don’t understand that new analytics ??

Hi @cedarteeth,

I understand, getting the hang of Google Analytics 4 can be a bit challenging at first, and as well as setting up a custom exploration just to get data on your affiliate link clicks.

Our paid version does let you get around this (on top of our paid version adding other super handy tracking features). We’re unable to share details about paid version features here (www.remarpro.com policy), but you’re welcome to reach out at https://monsterinsights.com/contact/ and we’d be happy to share more about this.

I’m sorry we don’t have a way to do what you’re looking for in our free version, but I hope these details are helpful.

Thanks.

Hi @cedarteeth,

We haven’t heard back from you in a little while, so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread for now. But if you’d like for us to assist further, please feel welcome to continue the conversation.

Thanks!
