What Exactly is a UTM?
Glad you asked. A UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) is a tag appended to the end of a URL. When this UTM tag is appended, it allows you to track referral traffic much more accurately. Without appending UTMs to your links, you’ll only track the general source of your traffic (such as AdWords or Facebook) instead of the specific campaign or post (such as an indi- vidual blog post). This allows you to take the guesswork out of how various ads, pieces of content, and other mediums are performing on a campaign level.
