Google Analytics detects three mediums without any customization.

  • The first default medium is “organic.” It represents traffic that comes from organic, or unpaid, search results.
  • Another default medium is “referral.” Any traffic that comes to your site from another website that’s not a search engine will show up in your reports as a “referral.”
