There are those who search for particular keywords and your content is among the information they view or find. There are also those who find you through your website content or other online content. It is helpful for you to know how your users find your YouTube channel because it will boost your marketing strategy. You will get to know the YouTube content that is adding value to your channel and that which is stagnating.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve this, you need to isolate the traffic you track in Google Analytics for better tracking of the users who visit your YouTube channel. You can achieve this by having a view that focuses only on YouTube traffic. You can also set up a feature that can track users as per a particular tracking ID. With these setups, you can view how users find you and interact with your YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p>Setting up a tracking view with a filter begins with a click on the gear icon named Admin. This icon is at the lower-left corner of Google Analytics. After that, click on the &#8216;Create View&#8217; icon on the upper right. A form will appear for you to give your view a name and choose your preferred time zone. When that is done, click on the &#8216;Create View&#8217; button and you can now create a filter that enables you to view your YouTube traffic. Here is a visual explanation of where to go to create view:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4660\" src=\"https:\/\/diib.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Google-Analytics-YouTube-1.jpg\" alt=\"How to Integrate Your YouTube and Google Analytics\" width=\"620\" height=\"458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/diib.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Google-Analytics-YouTube-1.jpg 620w, https:\/\/diib.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Google-Analytics-YouTube-1-300x222.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(Image Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monsterinsights.com\/docs\/create-a-new-view-in-google-analytics\/\">MonsterInsights<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>When you are on the Admin screen, the view column should give you a selected view so that you can click filters. After clicking the button to add filters, give your filter a name and choose custom. At this point, the custom settings appear and you can click on &#8216;Include and select Hostname&#8217; from the drop-down menu on &#8216;Filter Field.&#8217; In the Filter Pattern box, type &#8216;YouTube&#8217; and click on save.<\/p>\n<p>There are people who prefer to create a property to acquire a tracking ID other than setting up a tracking view and filter. Once you have set up a property through the admin page of Google Analytics, click on Tracking Info. From there, proceed to the property column, click Tracking Code and copy the ID that you will see on the screen of the Tracking Code.<\/p>\n<p>Add that unique ID to your YouTube channel. Then, go to YouTube and open your settings where you will click on the link to &#8216;View Additional Features.&#8217; Creator Studio will then open so you can click on &#8216;Channel&#8217; followed by &#8216;Advanced&#8217; that is on the left-hand sidebar. On the &#8216;Advanced Screen,&#8217; scroll to the bottom and paste the ID you copied into the field of &#8216;Property Tracking ID&#8217; on Google Analytics. Complete the process by clicking save.

Like any other online platform or type of business, a YouTube channel needs to be reviewed, worked on and marketed. It is not enough to just upload videos and content on your YouTube channel. A YouTube channel is similar to a blog site and you need to understand your market and your audience as well. Know what your target audience wants and have competitive content.

To do this, select the Secondary Dimension button and search the word &#8216;keyword&#8217;. From there click on Keyword again from the list you can view. For instance, you may have a particular sequence on your UTM tag and that will tell you that a user was able to watch a video from a particular series of videos that you uploaded. The good thing is that you can also view the landing page that was visited by the user. To do this, change the Secondary Dimension available in the Source\/Medium report and choose Landing page instead.<\/p>\n<p>When you decide to set goals in Google Analytics, it is possible to know how your YouTube marketing plan promotes the set goals. These goals may include purchasing an item or adding a particular item to the cart. To get this information, go to the drop-down list on Conversions in the Source\/Medium report and choose the goal you intend to review.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that it is not possible to use Google Analytics to know the exact video that people are watching.

You also get to know how much of the video the users watched.
