What is Google Analytics?

Google Analytics is a freemium analytics service offered by Google, originally meant for website that tracks and reports website traffic. Google launched the service in November 2005 after acquiring Urchin. Google Analytics is now the most widely used web analytics service on the Internet.

The great thing about Google analytics, is that it's an all-in-one solution, it works for the web, for the Android smartphones and tablets, for the iPad, for the iPhone.

On top of that, Google Analytics can be combined with Google Admob advertising networks and Google Adwords too, which means you can analyze and gets pertinent reports about how your app is used as well as how the advertising within your app is working. You get analytics for banner ads, full screen ads, and also analytics for video ads (rewards too!)


Why would you want to use Google Analytics in your Unity 3D game ?

You need to understand and measure what your users do inside of your game — a key to engaging and monetizing users in the long run. You cannot expect to publish a game and cross your fingers or pray the gods that your game will make money. You need to analyze your user behavior and engagement and update your game to be more attractive and engaging for the game players.


Google Analytics allows developers to send raw user interaction data directly to Google Analytics servers. This allows you, the game developer to measure how users interact with their business from almost any environment. Developers can then use the data to:

  • ✅ Measure user activity in new environments.
  • ✅ Tie online to offline behavior.
  • ✅ Send data from both the client and server
  • ✅ See how many players come daily to your game.
  • ✅ Add custom events to track actions that players make on your game.
  • ✅ See the results of custom events through the funnel.
  • ✅ See where the players get stuck in your game and fix it


Thanks to Unity 3D, you can now track user activity on iOS, Android, desktop games ( Windows or Mac or Linux ) Playstation and Xbox ! Even the Apple TV and the Virtual reality devices like Samsung VR and Oculus Rift ! It's it amazing?!

Unity Analytics works seemlessly with Google Ads

Have you ever wondered how games such as "Candy Crush" were able to become financially successful? Implement ads that the players would like to see using an ad network targeted specially for gamers, show only game related videos to your player and forget about the intrusive banner ads in this tutorial for intermediate users you will learn in no time how to monetize that free game you have.

Make revenue out of your game

  • Show an Ad to the player after he or she performs a specific action.
  • Navigate through the ads online dashboard to see the revenue of your game.
