What Is Google Tag Manager and Why Is It Important?
Re-marketing, analytics, conversion, call, and other tracking tags are probably littered all over your site.
While some you use, most you probably don’t. Whereas some are so old that no one knows who put them there in the first place! But guess what, they all slow down your load speed and frustrate potential customers.
By effectively managing your tags within one tracking tag which everything plugs into, is by far the simplest and fastest solution.
To solve this, Indago Digital uses ‘Google Tag Manager’ (GTM). And like our analytics product, it’s comprehensive, reliable and the software is free. Not only does it increase load speed, but also avoids developer reliance when updating tracking code.
Within the GTM interface, we can add, remove and update tags with ease as well as test to check if they fire correctly and collect the required data.
Google Tag Manager at Indago Digital
Google invested a lot of time and resources into making Tag Manager the robust and reliable tool it is today.
With over thirty 3rd party integrations (and counting), this tool can be conjoined with Google Ads (formally AdWords), Search Ads 360 (formally DoubleClick), SalesForce, MailChimp, CrazyEgg and many others in creating a seamless tagging and tracking solution for your website.
The best part – by using this tool, you also improve page load speeds while easily testing all tags prior publishing them live. No more worrying about your site accidentally crashing.
Our Methodology and Results
Google Tag Manager is a very robust tool providing the ability to track how visitors interact with your site. What we love most about it, is that when it’s set up, there is no need to ever ask a developer to touch tagging on your site again – the marketeer is in control.
Tag Manager Strategy - At Indago Digital, we start every project by strategising around the tracking tags currently inhabiting your site, and those likely to be required. Next, we understand the conversions you seek to track, and how those conversions take place.
Typical questions include; What tags are you currently using? What conversions are you tracking? What would you like to track? On which pages do conversions occur?
Google Tag Manager Audit - Indago Digital then performs a Google Tag Manager audit to determine how to optimise your current set up. We use several tools to do this including: Google Tag Assist and Ghostery.
We typically check; Is Google Tag Manager on every page? Is Google Tag Manager correctly installed? Is cross-domain tracking utilised where necessary?
Google Tag Manager Implementation and Testing - The strategy document and audit are combined for implementation.
We prefer testing Google Tag Manager changes in test environments. However, the built-in testing sandbox helps avoid any mishaps on the live site. Once tags are tested, they are pushed to the live site.
Indago Digital also provides ongoing maintenance, including; Periodic Google Tags checking, Addition of new tags, 3rd party tags, and tracking.
