About the UTM Campaign URL Builder
UTM parameters are tags you add to the end of a URL so your analytics can tell exactly where a visitor came from. When someone clicks a tagged link, tools like Google Analytics record the source, medium, and campaign, letting you measure which emails, ads, and social posts actually drive traffic and conversions. This builder assembles a correctly formatted campaign URL from simple fields.
Fill in your link and campaign details, use a preset for common channels, and copy the finished URL. Everything is built in your browser — no account or tracking on our end.
What each UTM parameter means
utm_source— where the traffic originates (google, newsletter, facebook).utm_medium— the channel type (cpc, email, social).utm_campaign— the specific promotion (spring_sale).utm_term— paid keywords, mainly for search ads.utm_content— distinguishes two links in the same campaign (A/B tests).
Keep your tags consistent
UTM values are case-sensitive, so Email and email show up as two separate sources in your reports and fragment your data. Pick a convention — lowercase with underscores or hyphens is common — and stick to it. The lowercase option here enforces that automatically so your analytics stay clean.

Frequently asked questions
What is a UTM parameter?
It is a tag appended to a URL (like utm_source=newsletter) that analytics tools read to attribute a visit to a specific source, medium, and campaign.
Which UTM parameters are required?
Best practice is to always set utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign. utm_term and utm_content are optional and used for paid keywords and A/B testing.
Are UTM values case-sensitive?
Yes. Email and email are treated as different values, so keep your capitalization consistent. This tool can force lowercase to prevent split reporting.
Do UTM parameters affect SEO?
They do not help or hurt rankings, but you should avoid using them on internal links, as that can distort your analytics. Use them for external campaign links.
Is the URL built privately?
Yes. The link is assembled entirely in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.
