The Ultimate 47-Point Google Analytics 4 Audit Checklist

Is your data accurate, or are you making decisions based on broken tracking? This comprehensive GA4 audit checklist covers the 47 critical checks every marketer and agency needs to perform to ensure a healthy Google Analytics 4 configuration.

From verifying GA4 event tracking and Consent Mode v2 compliance to identifying "zombie" events and attribution errors, this guide serves as the definitive GA4 health check. While a manual audit can take hours of technical digging, you can run this entire Google Analytics audit automatically in under 60 seconds with GA4 Health Check.

Explore the 7 core modules below to see exactly what we verify — or run the audit automatically →

01
Foundation

Account & Property Setup

Reviewing your GA4 property settings is the first step. We check data retention, timezones, and attribution models to ensure a solid foundation. One wrong setting silently corrupts months of data. Agencies use these 47 checks to onboard new clients. Learn more about our agency features.

Core Data

Event Tracking Quality

A deep dive GA4 event tracking audit. Events are the foundation of everything in GA4. Bad event names, duplicate firing, zombie events with zero hits — any of these silently corrupts your funnels, conversion tracking, and attribution. This is our most comprehensive module.

Naming convention compliance (snake_case enforcement)
Zero-hit event detection (zombie events)
Conversion events via Admin API
Duplicate event firing patterns
Purchase event parameter completeness
Parameter naming conventions
Custom event inventory
Standard event usage audit
03
Configuration

Configuration & Customisation

GA4 gives you 50 custom dimension slots — once full, you can't add more without deleting. Internal traffic leaking into your data, payment processors hijacking attribution, unassigned channel traffic exceeding 10%. These are fixable problems that most properties ignore.

Custom dimension quota (50 slot limit)
Internal traffic filter verification
Payment processor referral exclusions
Unassigned channel traffic analysis
Audience configuration health
UTM medium standardisation
Channel grouping rules

Data Quality

Data Integrity & Accuracy

Your data might look fine on the surface. Engagement rates, pages per session, year-over-year trends — outliers in any of these signal something is wrong. Staging traffic, bot sessions, and ghost referrals all show up here.

Localhost & staging traffic detection
Engagement rate anomaly check
Pages-per-session outlier detection
(not set) dimension analysis
Year-over-year trend validation
Bot & spam traffic signals
05

Privacy & Compliance

Run a GA4 privacy audit to ensure GDPR compliance. We scan for PII in URLs and verify your Consent Mode v2 implementation status.
