Tracking performance is essential to understanding what’s working, what’s not, and where to focus your marketing efforts. Google Analytics and UTM tracking give you clear, actionable data to measure traffic, conversions, and user behavior for your Bandwango Pass.


Quick Start: Tracking Essentials

If you want meaningful insights with minimal setup, start here:

  • Confirm Google Analytics (GA4) is installed on your website

  • Use UTM links for at least one social or email campaign

  • Track traffic to your dedicated pass landing page

  • Review page views and signups regularly

Even basic tracking provides valuable insight and helps you make smarter marketing decisions.


Why Tracking Matters

Without tracking, it’s impossible to know which marketing efforts are driving results. Analytics allow you to:

  • Identify which channels drive traffic and signups

  • Understand how users interact with your landing page

  • See where users drop off in the signup process

  • Make informed decisions about where to invest time and budget

Tracking is one of the most powerful, and underutilized, marketing tools available.


Understanding UTM Tracking

UTM tracking codes are small parameters added to links that tell Google Analytics exactly where traffic is coming from.

Each UTM link includes:

  • Campaign Source – Where the traffic originates (e.g., Facebook, email)

  • Campaign Medium – The type of marketing (e.g., social, ad, newsletter)

  • Campaign Name – The specific campaign or piece of content

You can create UTM links using tools like Google’s Campaign URL Builder, then use those links anywhere you promote your pass.


Using UTMs Across Marketing Channels

UTM links should be used consistently across all marketing efforts, including:

  • Organic social media posts

  • Paid social and digital ads

  • Email campaigns and newsletters

  • Partner websites and cross‑promotion

  • Print materials using QR codes

For print marketing, embed UTM links into QR codes placed on signage, flyers, or posters. This allows you to track which physical locations or materials drive traffic and conversions.


Google Analytics & Conversion Tracking

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) allows you to track how users interact with your pass landing page.

You also have the option to enable Bandwango event tracking for your integrated landing page. While optional, this is strongly recommended.

With event tracking enabled, you can see how many users:

  • Visit your landing page

  • Click “Learn More”

  • Click “Sign Up”

  • Begin the signup process

  • Complete their signup

This data helps you understand the full user journey and identify friction points that may be impacting conversions.


Using Tracking Data to Improve Performance

Once tracking is in place, use the data to refine your strategy:

  • Identify top‑performing channels and campaigns

  • Spot drop‑off points in the signup flow

  • Adjust landing page messaging or CTAs

  • Prioritize marketing efforts that drive real results

Analytics turn guesswork into informed decision‑making.
