Customer Persona: In the “Audience” section, you can access demographic data such as age, gender, interests, location, and device usage. This information helps refine Google Ads campaigns, increasing conversion opportunities.
User Behavior Analysis: The tool tracks page views, time spent on pages, and the most visited content, allowing you to identify areas for improvement or content with high sales potential.
