2. What is Advance Segmentation?
• Advanced
Segments
allows
you
to
separate
and
analyse
different
forms
of
data
from
Google
Analy?cs.
– For
example,
you
can
create
a
segment
that
only
includes
visits
that
resulted
in
a
transac?on.
• Advanced
Segments
allows
you
to
do
many
different
types
of
data
comparison
through
many
types
of
website
variables.
This
helps
you
to
find
any
areas
of
improvement
on
your
site
that
will
help
lead
user
to
conver?ng.

3. Difference Between Advanced Segmentation and Filters
What’s
the
difference
between
advanced
segments
and
filters?
Well,
They
act
in
similar
ways,
but
there
are
some
clear
differences
between
the
two:
– With
Advanced
Segments
you
can
view
data
from
the
past.
– With
Filters
you
can
only
view
data
from
when
you
start
the
filter.
You
can
see
and
compare
mul?ple
Segments
at
the
same
?me,
where
in
Filters
you
can
only
view
one
at
a
?me.
So
why
use
Advanced
Segmenta-on?
It
helps
you
beKer
analyse
different
data
ranges
that
simple
filters
aren't
capable
of
segmen?ng.
