Essay I. Summary of your activities in your contents including new contents created (one paragraph). Provide all the hyperlinks (clickable) of new contents you have created this week.

This week, I wrote and published two first person travel vlog posts that focus on practical, step by step recommendations while still keeping a personal narrative. In the München post, I described a natural walking route through the city center and shared how I spent my day starting at Marienplatz, grabbing snacks at Viktualienmarkt, relaxing in Englischer Garten, watching surfers at Eisbachwelle, and ending with an evening stroll and dinner. In the Santorini post, I mapped out an easy island flow from Fira to Imerovigli, planned a calmer Oia sunset, and added beach time for balance.

Essay II. Summary of your “Event” in GA4 (add a screenshot) (one paragraph)

I set up my Google Tag Manager container to track my website activity in a cleaner and more intentional way. I added my main GA4 configuration tag so Google Analytics loads properly on every page from the moment the site initializes, and then I built a few event tags to capture what people actually do on the site. I currently have a click tracking event firing across all pages, and I also created two post focused GA4 events for my Munich and Santorini blog posts that trigger specifically on posts, so I can monitor how readers engage with those travel updates.

Essay III. Find and describe one of best use cases using custom events in GA4 (one paragraph)

One of the best use cases for custom events in Google Analytics 4 is tracking a meaningful “micro conversion” that isn’t a purchase, like “high intent content engagement” on a blog. For example, I can create a custom event that fires only when a reader reaches 75 percent scroll depth on a post and then clicks a key link (such as a related post, newsletter signup, or contact page). That single event becomes a clean success metric I can mark as a conversion, compare across posts, and use to see which topics and traffic sources bring readers who actually engage, not just bounce after a quick pageview.
