Segmentation is a method of dividing your analytics data into more manageable chunks according to your criteria. You can create a segment, a data subset, of visitors who share certain traits or behaviors. That gives you a broader perspective on your audience and the way they move through different stages of their Customer journey .
You can group visitors based on, for example:
- Localization (country, city etc)
- Technology (device, browser etc)
- Website/app activity, such as:
- Specific pages visited
- Specific forms filled out
- Referral / referrer Referral (user comes via search engine, website etc)
That allows you to generate reports for selected visitors according to the chosen criteria.
