Google Analytics is Sunsetting Their Old UA Tag

Changes are coming next year to Google Analytics platform that measures data from the UA tags placed on your websites. The newer GA4 tags are replacing the old outdated UA tags. This means you could lose all measurement and historical data you collect on site visitors if you don’t take steps to update the tags on your site or through Google Tag Manager (GTM) before July 1, 2023. Google is giving companies time to make the switch and back up historical data. However, making the switch on your timeline is better than rushing through updates and backups at the last minute.

One of the benefits of setting up the new GA4 tags is that you can customize your dashboard to collect data about almost any conversion you set on you site. If you are looking to measure the RFQs by source or medium, those custom metrics can be set up in the new GA4 Dashboard. Working with your website development team will allow you to measure the right metrics so you can track progress regularly.
