How to build a link with UTM tags

Without UTMs it’s hard to see which post or banner brought people. Tags sit in the URL and analytics can read them.

Step by step

  1. Enter the base URL

    Paste the landing page without extra clutter parameters.

  2. Fill source, medium, campaign

    Example: instagram / social / spring_sale. Agree on naming with your team.

  3. Copy the finished link

    Use it in ads, stories, and email. Add content/term when comparing creatives.

Naming basics

Prefer lowercase Latin characters without spaces (underscores or hyphens) so reports don’t split on typos.

Things to watch

  • Don’t invent alternate spellings for the same campaign.
  • UTMs work beyond Google Analytics if your stack reads campaign params.
  • Clear names beat clever abbreviations.
