UTM Parameters Guide

Master campaign tracking with our UTM builder and see exactly where your traffic is coming from.

What are UTM Parameters?

UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) parameters are tags added to the end of a URL to track the performance of marketing campaigns. They allow tools like Google Analytics to report on where visitors originated.

The Five Standard Parameters

  • Source (utm_source): The platform where the link is shared (e.g., facebook, google, newsletter).
  • Medium (utm_medium): The marketing medium (e.g., social, cpc, email).
  • Campaign (utm_campaign): The specific campaign name (e.g., summer_sale_2026).
  • Term (utm_term): Used for paid search keywords.
  • Content (utm_content): Used to differentiate between two similar ads or links (e.g., banner_top vs. sidebar_link).
