What is GA4
Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is Google’s analytics platform for tracking how people interact with your website (and apps) using an event-based model. Instead of focusing mainly on sessions and pageviews, GA4 records user actions—like page_view, scroll, file_download, and form_submit—as events, giving you a clearer view of engagement. GA4 also includes built-in privacy controls, improved cross-device measurement, and more flexible reporting than older versions of Analytics.
For landing page analysis, GA4 is especially useful because it lets you see which pages start sessions, how engaged those visitors are, and whether they complete key actions like purchases, enquiries, or sign-ups. You can slice results by traffic source, campaign, device, or location, and you can mark important events as conversions to tie landing page traffic to outcomes. If you use Google Tag Manager, GA4 becomes even more powerful, letting you track clicks and form interactions that help explain why some landing pages outperform others.
Benefits of using GA4 to find landing page performance
GA4 helps you identify which landing pages attract the right visitors, keep them engaged, and drive valuable actions—so you can improve results without guessing.
1. See which pages start sessions
GA4’s Landing page report shows which URLs users enter your site on, making it easy to identify your true entry points from search, ads, and social. This helps you prioritise improvements on the pages that shape first impressions and influence whether visitors stay, explore, or bounce quickly.
2. Measure engagement quality, not just traffic
Landing page performance isn’t only about sessions. GA4 includes engaged sessions, engagement rate, and average engagement time, helping you spot pages that attract visitors but fail to hold attention. With these metrics, you can focus on improving messaging, page speed, layout, and CTA clarity.
3. Connect landing pages to conversions
Once conversions are configured in GA4, you can evaluate landing pages based on outcomes like leads, sign-ups, or purchases. This allows you to compare pages by conversion contribution rather than clicks alone—helping you invest time and budget into the pages that actually drive business results.
How to find landing page performance in GA4: A Final Note
GA4’s Landing page report makes it simple to understand which entry pages drive traffic, engagement, and conversions. Use filters and sorting to uncover quick wins, then optimise the pages that matter most to your goals.
