What is GA4 and How Does It Work: A Comprehensive Guide
GA4, also known as Google Analytics 4, is a new version of the popular analytics tool that is designed to help Bloggers better understand their customers. GA4 collects both website/blog and app data, providing a more complete view of the customer journey and enabling businesses and Bloggers to make data-driven decisions.
