Analytics & Attribution in the UK

32 articles in Analytics & Attribution.

Analytics and attribution answer a simple question: which marketing effort produced each lead or sale? For small and local businesses, the answer is often hidden by missing tracking, duplicate counts or calls that never get logged. Without it, budget decisions turn into guesswork. Cleaner data makes every other marketing decision easier.

Each post is written for owners, not analysts, with steps you can follow.

Crediting the right source

Common questions

What is attribution in plain terms? expand_more
Attribution is the method used to decide which channel gets credit for a lead or sale. Different methods give different answers, so it helps to look at more than one view.
Why do my analytics numbers not match my leads? expand_more
Common causes are missing events, tags that fire twice, phone calls that are not tracked and consent settings that hide some visitors. A tracking audit usually finds the gaps quickly.
Do small businesses really need this level of tracking? expand_more
Yes, because small budgets leave little room for waste. Even basic tracking of calls and forms shows which sources deserve more money and which should be paused.
