How is a URL Channel vs Custom Channels different?
Both URL and Custom Channels can be used with the same product for a website. Even though both do not alter your data in any way. It is just a different perspective of your data.
In order to contrast between the two types of channels further, let’s look at some examples that might be more explanatory.
- First, Do you know if the ad unit on the top of the page generates more revenue than the ad on the bottom, if so by how much? Create two custom channels, one with all ad units that appear on the top of the page and another with all ad units that appear at the bottom.
- Secondly, Do you know which ad size works best on your site? Create a custom channel for each of the ad sizes that you use on the site. For example a large horizontal and small rectangle.
- Finally, Do you know which section of the site generates more revenue? Create URL channels for different sections of the site that you want to compare.
What are the Revenue impacts?
Just creating a channel by itself will not increase your revenue. Once you have the various channels set up and configured, you start by exploring the reports generated by these channels. You can view these reports under the Performance Reports tab and then the Advanced Reports section.
Hopefully, the reports will show which of your ad units are the most successful in which location on the page. It will also show you many website specific information depending on how you have set up your channels. Most of these reports can be further segmented using other dimensions such as time, date, and location.
