Advanced Google Analytics Cheat Sheet
Portent Team Jun 24 2011
Update!
We’ve got a new and improved version of the Cheat Sheet for 2015!

Google Analytics is Hard
Google Analytics is tricky. There are cookies, utm_codes, and lots of counterintuitive definitions. As Kanye West would say, “It’s enough to drive a sane man biz-erk.”
Can’t Someone Put This All in One Place?
When I was studying for the Google Analytics Individual Qualification, I was overwhelmed by the number of cookie specifications, tracking parameters, and complex definitions I needed to know.
“Couldn’t someone put this all in one place?” I asked. “Maybe in a visually appealing way?”
Introducing: the Advanced Google Analytics Cheat Sheet
It includes convenient summaries of:
- URL Tagging
- Regular Expressions
- Cookies (or Biscuits, if you’re English or Tracy)
And…
- Definitions that most people get wrong
And you can download it today, not for $39, not for $29, not even for $9.99…
But for the low, low cost of one tweet. Imagine how delighted your friends and colleagues will be when you share this with them. They’ll be pleased as punch. Really, they will.

First time I’ve seen “pay with a tweet”, very clever. I’ve read your material before so I’m not concerned about paying because I know of it’s quality. I’m sure this cheat sheet is going to kill a few trees…
Thanks Dave! Much Obliged.
Have to admit a little article on the Paywithatweet gohickey would be a good move too…
Only one small problem… tweeted, but can’t download the sheet… #oops
Hi Martin,
I’m sorry about that.
I’ve found that you have to tweet through the Pay With a Tweet button and add the app to your Twitter account to get the file.
If you’re still having trouble, feel free to drop me an email at mgratt @ eigene-homepage-erstellen.net.
Thanks,
Matt
