What is UTM Tracking?

UTM parameters are small tags you add to your URLs. They tell analytics tools where your visitors came from.

How to Use with QR Codes

  1. Go to QRPro
  2. Enter your URL
  3. Click "Add UTM Tracking"
  4. Fill in your parameters:
    • Source: Where it's displayed (e.g., "flyer", "business_card")
    • Medium: The format (e.g., "print", "digital")
    • Campaign: Your campaign name

Example

https://yoursite.com?utm_source=flyer&utm_medium=print&utm_campaign=summer_sale

Viewing in Google Analytics

  1. Open Google Analytics

  3. Look for "UTM" in your source/medium
