The Audience and Demographics Performance page in our Looker Studio helps you understand your audience better based on their demographics, gender, age, geolocation, and which day sees the highest content consumption, as well as the breakdown by device.

This page is applicable when you enable Google Signals inside your GA4 settings.

Loyalty Performance

The Loyalty Performance page of your Looker Studio shows different levels of loyalty, or fan level. We have defined five levels of loyalty audience groups as follows:

  1. New Visitors: users who initiated 1 session
  2. Returning Visitors: users who initiated 2 or more sessions
  3. Loyal Visitors: users who initiated 3 or more sessions
  4. Fans: users who initiated 4 or more sessions
  5. Super Fans: users who initiated 5 or more sessions
Google Analytics adds the number of users who have met the criteria during the last 30 days, so you have an idea of potential audience size.

This gives you great insight into the amount of traffic that is returning to your site. As you can see in our example above, we also see that as loyalty grows, pages per user and time per user also grow.

Google Search Console Performance

We can filter them by page, query, search type, country, and device category to help dig deeper into the data.

Included at the bottom of the page are tables of top-performing content inside Google Search Console, as well as top-performing keywords (queries) as reported by the same.

Questions Search Performance

UTMs included as paid traffic are:

  1. Source/Medium which contains "CPC" (Cost per Click)
  2. Source/Medium which contains "PPC" (Pay per Click)
  3. Source/Medium which contains "Paid"

If you are by chance using a custom paid campaign with unique UTM parameters, feel free to reach out to us about the unique UTM name and we can adjust your Looker Studio dashboard page to include your unique paid UTM campaign.
