A UTM builder is a campaign URL generator that adds tracking parameters to a website link. These UTM parameters help analytics tools understand where visitors came from and which marketing campaign sent them to your site.
UTM parameters are tags added to the end of a URL. The most common parameters are
utm_source, utm_medium and utm_campaign.
Optional parameters include utm_term and utm_content.
Identifies where traffic came from, such as Google, LinkedIn, newsletter, Facebook or QR code.
Identifies the marketing channel, such as email, social, cpc, referral, display or offline.
Identifies the campaign name, such as product launch, summer sale or monthly newsletter.
Often used for paid search keywords, audience terms or campaign targeting labels.
Helps distinguish different links, buttons, creatives or ad variations in the same campaign.
The final generated URL combines your website URL with all selected UTM tracking parameters.
A LinkedIn post might use utm_source=linkedin, utm_medium=social
and utm_campaign=product_launch. An email newsletter might use
utm_source=newsletter, utm_medium=email and a campaign name such as
may_update.
