Manuel Martinez Data Studio 1 Comment

These are 5 fantastic Google Data Studio report templates that you can start using in just a few minutes.

All you need is a Google account, which you can sign up for here, direct access to the data sources trough the connectors, and you are good to go. If you are new to Data Studio I have a post about how to get started.

These dashboards are free to use and if you don’t find want you are looking for below, I have written another post that lists 9 Data Studio templates for SEO.

Using premium connectors

As many Google products, Data Studio is free to use and so are all templates. However, a number of so-called community connectors have been built to supplement the default connectors that come free with Data Studio. The reason these exist is because the default connectors are limited in capabilities and not that flexible when it comes to data analysis and presentation.

The leading producer of these connectors is a Finish company called Super Metrics and at the end of this list I have shared a nice Facebook report for which you will need a premium connector that you can find on supermetrics.com.

Premium connectors allow you to do more in depth research with Data Studio and I recommend exploring these if you are serious about data studio and use it daily.

How to use the dashboards

Once you have chosen the report you want to use, open the report by clicking the red links below. You should now be directed to Data Studio and the selected template.

You will then need to click on the top right corner to make a copy of the report:

Finally, connect to the preset connectors that are used in the report. Note that you need to have access to the data in the Google account you are using. If you see errors, don’t worry, you can easily edit the connections in Data Studio and select what data to display where.

Ok, so here is the list of 5 gorgeous reporting dashboards for Google Data Studio – enjoy!

#1. YouTube Audience report

YouTube Data Studio Report

I love this template – it has everything you need in order to understand how your YouTube videos perform. The good people at datasaurus-rex.com built this Data Studio report which showcases all sorts of YouTube metrics. Once connected you can see information like daily views, total number of likes and dislikes, the average watching times, the amount of subscriptions your channels has year-to-date, as well as the top performing content.

Using this report allows for easy analysis of the type of videos that perform well on YouTube – something you can share with your clients by sending the link or send as PDF to your colleagues.

Google Data Studio Page Speed Report

A company called Amazee Metrics made this report for page speed insights. It’s nice and simple and gives you a snapshot of how quickly your website loads depending on which device your visitors use.

What’s particularly good about this report – and the main reason I picked it for this list – is the breakdown of speed by browser. When it comes to optimize your UX, speed is critical and this Data Studio Template can be used to see where there is opportunity to improve load times.
