If you opt to track your analytics the old-fashioned way, you can set up GA4 for your project. Google Analytics needs no further introduction, as it has been the industry standard for a long time. 

service offered by Google that helps website owners understand how users interact with their website. It provides data and insights on metrics like website traffic, user demographics, user behavior, and conversions.

Universal Analytics, which was the main version of Google Analytics for many years, stopped processing new data on July 1, 2023. This means it no longer collects data on website activity. Existing data is still accessible until July 1, 2024, after which point users will lose access to the interface and API.

GA4 (Google Analytics 4) is the successor to Universal Analytics and is now the primary version of Google Analytics. It was launched in 2020 and offers several advantages over its predecessor, including:

• Focus on privacy — GA4 is built with evolving privacy regulations in mind and utilizes a more privacy-centric approach to data collection.
• Machine learning — GA4 leverages machine learning for deeper insights and automated analysis, providing a more comprehensive understanding of user behavior.
• Cross-platform tracking — GA4 can track user journeys across different platforms like websites and apps, offering a more unified view of user engagement.

Even though the basic setup is easy, getting custom analytics appropriately done with GA4 could be a pain in the neck, which is why solutions such as Data Goat are an option that can help you skip this step and set up GA4 in Webflow.
