Analytics & Tracking

Google Analytics 4

Connect GA4 to see traffic and conversions next to your content.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) tells you what happens after the click: how many people visit, where they come from, what they read and on which devices. Connecting GA4 to Grandranker puts that traffic data on the same Analytics page as your Search Console data.

Google Analytics 4 traffic inside Grandranker

GA4 and Google Search Console are separate connections. You can use either one alone, but they are most useful together: Search Console shows how you rank, GA4 shows what the resulting traffic does.

What you need: a Google account with access to a GA4 property for your site. Grandranker requests read-only access to your Analytics data.

How to Connect

  1. Open Analytics in Grandranker and click Connect GA4 (on the Google Analytics tab).
  2. Sign in with the Google account that has access to your GA4 property and approve access.
  3. Back in Grandranker, choose your property under Select a GA4 Property. The list shows each property's name and the Analytics account it belongs to. You only see properties this Google account can access.
  4. Click Continue. The Google Analytics tab now loads your traffic data.

To switch accounts, use Disconnect Account on the property-selection card, then connect again with the right Google account.

What you see once connected

The Google Analytics tab of the Analytics page shows, for your chosen period (7 days to 12 months):

  • Metric cards: Users, Sessions, Pageviews, Bounce Rate and Avg Duration.
  • Traffic Overview: a daily sessions chart across the selected period.
  • Devices: the split of sessions across desktop, mobile and tablet.
  • Top Sources: where your visitors come from.
  • Top Pages: your most visited pages by Google Analytics pageviews, with bounce rate per page.

A Last synced timestamp under the tab shows when Grandranker last pulled fresh data.

Troubleshooting

"No GA4 properties found in your account"

A property is the website Google Analytics collects data for. You only see properties the connected Google account has access to. Create the property (or get access to it) at analytics.google.com, then reconnect. If your site uses a different Google account for Analytics, click Disconnect Account and connect with that one.

"Reconnect Google Analytics"

Your GA4 authorization has expired. Click Reconnect GA4 and approve access again. Your selected property is kept.

"Authorization was cancelled or failed."

You closed or declined the Google consent screen before finishing. Start the connection again and approve access when Google asks.

The tab shows data for the wrong site

You picked the wrong GA4 property, or the property belongs to another site under the same account. Disconnect. Reconnect. Then select the property whose name matches the website you manage in Grandranker.
