Which UTM parameters are mandatory?

Technically, only utm_source is strictly required by most analytics suites, but best practice dictates always specifying utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign to ensure complete attribution reporting in your dashboards.

Does adding UTM parameters harm my website SEO?

No. Search engines recognize UTM parameters as query strings. As long as your destination pages contain a clean rel="canonical" link tag pointing to the clean root URL, duplicate content penalties will never occur.

Can I use spaces or special characters in UTM tags?

It is strongly advised to use lowercase alphanumeric characters with hyphens or underscores (e.g. "summer-sale-2026" or "twitter_post"). While this generator automatically URL-encodes special characters, clean lowercase slugs keep analytics reports tidy.
