Reply To: 3. Advanced Google Analytics Settings

If you didn’t have Google Analytics set up and successfully tracking on your website, then you’ll only have data from the day you set it up, and forward from there.

Note that there is also usually a 24h or so delay in reporting for GA4 stats.

To be eligible for Mediavine, you need 50,000 sessions to your website in the last 30 days. (There are instructions on how to find this info inside the first lesson of my SEO Made Simple course, along with a handy tracking spreadsheet for your stats.)

So you’ll need to wait until you have a full 30 days of stats to know if you’re eligible.

Note that “impressions” inside Google Search Console are NOT the same thing as sessions inside Google Analytics! (Impressions = someone saw your content in the Gogle Search results, but may or may not have clicked on it. Sessions = actual people who visited your website from any source.)

Typically, if you are getting 50k people per month to your website, you’ll have 1-2million+ impressions in GSC for any given month, if a large portion of your traffic comes from Google.
