User Acquisition is the process of gaining new users through marketing efforts such as paid ads, SEO, referrals, partnerships, and organic reach. It focuses on driving awareness, engagement, and action that leads users to join or sign up.
User Acquisition is essential for business growth. Without a consistent flow of new users, it’s difficult to scale revenue or expand your audience. Effective acquisition strategies help increase market share, reduce customer acquisition costs, and build long-term momentum.
You can measure User Acquisition by tracking how many new users join during a specific period, segmented by acquisition channel. Analytics tools help track user sources, signup rates, and conversion paths.
