How to Create Audiences in GA4

GA4 Audiences

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) audiences are specific segments of users that meet particular conditions. These conditions can be defined using dimensions, metrics, and/or events.

After creating an audience, you gain the ability to analyze the website behavior of those included in it. For instance, you can generate an audience consisting of website users located in Toronto. Once the audience is set, you can further delve into their activity by creating a custom explorations report. This report will allow you to observe the pages these users have viewed on your website, the number of sessions they have initiated, and the conversions they have engaged in.

Developing targeted audiences aids in focusing your data analysis on particular user groups. This granularity enables you to uncover intricate details about these audiences and gain a deeper understanding of their interactions with your website.
