You Finished GA4 for Shopify. Here's What to Actually Measure
Short summary
After GA4 setup, focus analysis on three metrics (RPS, AOV, CVR) in a fixed four-step sequence: overall RPS, channel RPS, AOV/CVR split, budget reallocation. Track RPS (revenue per session) across channels to uncover whether declines stem from traffic quality or audience value, avoiding common pitfalls like CVR-only judgment or treating session count as success.
- •RPS (revenue per session) unifies Shopify and GA4 data for cross-channel efficiency comparison
- •Use a fixed 4-step monthly cadence: overall RPS → channel RPS → AOV/CVR split → budget allocation
- •Avoid three logic traps: CVR-only judgment, site-wide AOV averages, and treating session count as success
