What UTM parameters are
UTM parameters are short tags added to the end of a link. Analytics tools read them to show where visitors came from. The common ones are source (the platform), medium (the type of channel) and campaign (the name of your promotion).
Naming tips
- Use lowercase and hyphens, such as instagram, bio-link or diwali-offer. "Instagram" and "instagram" may be counted separately.
- Be consistent. Decide your names once and keep a small list.
- Do not put personal data in a UTM tag. Links can be seen by anyone who receives them.
- Use tagged links for campaigns you want to measure, not for every internal link.
