Basic

What it is & how to use it

UTM parameters tag campaign traffic for analytics. At minimum set utm_source, utm_medium and utm_campaign with lowercase consistent names.

How to use the UTM Link Builder

1) Paste the destination URL.
2) Fill source, medium and campaign (plus optional terms/content).
3) Copy the tagged link or share builder state.
4) Never put personal data in UTMs.

Intermediate

Formula & worked example

Tagged URL = base URL + query params (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, …).
Example: source=newsletter, medium=email, campaign=spring.
Keep lowercase; avoid spaces.

Advanced

Interpretation, edge cases & next steps

Inconsistent casing splits reports in analytics.
Advanced: publish a team taxonomy; ban PII; share builder state instead of screenshots. Pair tagged links with ROAS/budget scenarios before launch.

Frequently asked questions

Are UTMs case sensitive?

Many analytics tools treat them as case-sensitive — standardise on lowercase.

Can I put emails in UTMs?

No — never put personal data in campaign parameters.

Do I need all five params?

Source, medium and campaign are the usual minimum.

Will this break my site?

UTMs are query parameters; they should not change page content.

How do teammates get the same draft?

Share the builder URL state when available.
