- Navigate to Segments: To access the segment creation interface in Google Analytics, navigate to the “Audience” or “Behavior” section and click on “Segments.”
- Click “+ New Segment”: To begin constructing a new custom segment, locate and click the “+ New Segment” button.
- Define Segment Criteria: There are a number of choices available to you in the segment creation interface for defining your segment criteria. To construct your segment, you may choose metrics (like sessions, pageviews) and attributes (like behavior, demographics, etc.).
- Establish Conditions: Indicate the requirements that your sector has to fulfill. You may select your audience depending on criteria by using filters, sequences, and conditions on certain acts or conduct.
- Segment Preview: Google Analytics shows you a preview of the size of the segment and the proportion of all users that it represents when you choose your segment criteria. This aids in determining the significance and effect of your part.
- Give Your Segment a Naming Convention: Select a term for your segment that accurately represents the standards you have set. Finding and using your section in reports is much simpler as a result.
- Save Your Segment: Select the “Save” option to store your personalized segment if you’re happy with the requirements. You may use it for reporting and analysis from this point on.
- Apply Segment to Reports: Once your segment has been saved, you can use it to evaluate data in Google Analytics reports by applying it to different reports that meet your predetermined criteria. You may learn more about your customized sector thanks to this.
