[@bethbeck1404]

Thank you so much for this! I spent over an hour trying to find a UA number that didn't exist for me & trying to put a tracking ID on a page it didn't work for. The page I needed was staring me right in the face the whole time, but I never clicked it until I watched your video! I can't thank you enough. This video really helped. My first Google tag is now set up. I was about to give up.

Competition who wanted to release a paid course, lol

[@bulkacademy9267]

great explanation! way better than any other tag manager tutorials. straight to the point

[@BestandTops]

What if one needs information about which social media performs best for their campaign? like Facebook, twitter... etc. Is there GTM shares data according to it ...?

[@AnalyticsMania]

GTM not directly related to that. Learn more about UTM parameters

[@BestandTops]

@@AnalyticsMania SIR, i want to know about some random universal analytics id shows in my outbound link click in gtm which i unable to find out in my analytics account. what to do now to track that random analytics id

[@violalu9849]

[@riteshparmar1217]

You saved me. the best video to understand GTM and GA4 works. Thanks you

[@ideaJoBadalDeDuniya]

Very Nice detailed video. Just keep up the good work.

[@susietheballerina]

Fantastic tutorial - thank you so much! I've spent so many hours struggling through using GTM and I feel so much more confident after watching this. The only part that I didn't like was the shade towards developers 😂 I'm a developer and always try to get things done for clients ASAP (especially something as simple as adding a tracking code!) but perhaps I'm in the minority 😂

[@kristenk708]

This is an AMAZING tutorial on GTM. Finally understood many of the things I couldn't understand for awhile. Love your way of explaining things step-by-step so every beginner can understand. Planning to watch every video on your channel now :D will also check out the e-book too. Is the beginners course structured this way too? With every step explained so noobs like me can understand it? If yes, I will totally buy it. Thank you Julius so much!! And of course, I have liked and subscribed. ^_^

[@AnalyticsMania]

Hi, yes. The course is structured in a way that beginners would understand. Also, there are many practical tasks in the course. So you will learn even better/faster. And the course goes much deeper, thus you will become a better specialist.

[@kristenk708]

@@AnalyticsMania That's great! Also, in which ways can I get a coupon code for a discount, if it's possible to get one? And one more question, are the GTM 2020 lessons exactly the same as the 2021 lessons here on KZbin?

[@Nansv]

Well, this is really the best free training video I ever viewed! EVER!

Hi everyone, I don't understand how to put a value on a custom event/conversion. I put in GTM in event parameters 2 rows, one with "value" as parameter name and a 35 (as 35€) as a value and for the 2nd "currency" and "EUR" I get results in google analytics at the conversion level but the system is not using those datas as Total Revenues. I wonder if my setup in GTM is right or if i missed smthg in Analytics. to mke it short : what i want to do is to put a value as Use the event value as the goal value for the conversion. that we had in UA. Thank you !

[@kabuki4103]

Thank you. However for 47:33 as far as I recall it's considered as 1 container and the G-HTQ7S is under the container (GTM-P6M...) right?

[@shamimshahriyari3136]

really useful. thanks. I will follow your videos.

[@shyama5612]

Bravo - Great tutorial.👍

[@mouradbaaqqa]

Hi Thank you very much for your video. I am thought facing a little difference when debuging, My sute uses WIX and when I click on another page, I can't see the page name on the timeline of Google Tag Manager Assistant even though iit's working of google analytics as it show that the page location is different. To explain more, the Window Loaded event fires only one tilme at the begining but never fires again when I naviguate to other pages. Can you please let me know if this is OK.

[@chubbyii]

The video is very clear and useful, the step by step instruction is exactly what I need. Thank you for making such a detail video!

[@AnhVan-zz9yy]

Great couse. Thank you so much. Im from Vietnam.

[@shafaatoo9328]

Awesome thank you so much for going so in depth. Really helped me out, any more videos like this planned soon? For going more in depth on Google Analytics or maybe facebook pixel/conversion API since the world of digital marketing is changing so much? With the death of third party cookies and all. Would really appreciate it! Awesome work btw!

[@michaelberenis6993]

thank you for an indepth video about GTM

[@jean-philippeehret8434]

Excellent! Very useful. Yes GA4 has now a 1st level of menu on the left and also I'm not sure we still need to publish an empty container, if I do it I get a version 2 not a version 1.

What is your opinion on using GTM vs Segment? What's recommended for startups?

[@veetanner5253]

This is a great tutorial on understanding Google Tag Manager and how it fits with GA4. Thank you so much

[@misomeowvegan]

Can we do conversion tracking without using Google Ads? For instance, if I created a 'Sign Up' trigger and I wanted to track First Touch -> Sign Up -> Purchase Complete in GA4? What would the tag look like to enable the Sign Up event? Would I just choose GA4 instead?

[@MichaelLim-ms8bp]

Can GA4 be used to track user interactions on AMP pages?

[@SebasBogota]

I want desperately to learn GTM, however, I don't have a web page to practice with. All the services I've found request tgat you pay. Is there any free option?

[@samuelanderson8767]

Thanks for the good tutorial!

Thank you so much. There is a plugin 'Google Site Kit' by Google that allows to connect Tag Manager, Search Console, Adsense, Analytics and pagespeed insights on a single plugin.

[@AnalyticsMania]

I have seen multiple times how people struggle and get weird data when using that plugin. That is why I don't recommend using it.

Is it possible to implement enhanced e-commerce without a developer?

[@Bawaromerali]

great video, but i added script to my website but i cannot see the custom event request, and dont understand why ?!

[@Od4n]

Hello, I have added a shop (own WP install) as subfolder, this seems the preferred way for SEO. I find it diffucult to find more information about the GTM/Analytics setup, is this something you have already covered somewhere else? Right now, I assume that I need to duplicate the effort as we are talking about 1 web-presence.

[@AnalyticsMania]

Duplicate what? Using GTM on a subfolder does not change a lot. It will work fine.

[@Od4n]

@@AnalyticsMania I have opted for the same account but separate containers. Stuff tracked in shop is quite different. Replication is not scary any more, I have seen the export/import functionality - recepies are awesome. I am getting there, thanks to your videos.

[@jorgea6497]

Thanks for this excelent tutorial. Very helpful

[@BruceMcCaughan]

Do you have same tutorial but for Universal Analytics?

[@OlegYarkayev]

Thank you very much for the great video. I have some issues when I setup g4 event for clicks. It works perfectly fine in debug mode and does not give me any clicks when i switch to live. I published all the items :(

[@ankittewariseo]

Hello Creator, Can you tell me that is there any way to block Adsense "Auto Ads" on the homepage of the website through the tag manager so that Ads Request or permissions remains 0 for the homepage of the website? I know it can be done itself while creating the auto ads by excluding a particular page URL but that's not working for me. Please comment your views

If you're a developer and you're watching this, you need a raise

What about sub-domains? Should we add separate codes or one GTM will work?

[@AnalyticsMania]

Both options (same code or separate code) will work

[@ptaylor4794]

Thanks for the great videos. Very much a couple of newbie questions if you don't mind. On a brand new install with a GA4 configuration. Should all the GA TAG triggers relate/fire just that configuration and how do Events in GA4 compare to Triggers in GTA.

[@sdsudhirrram4240]

Does the preview mode work without installing the container tag in one of the url in my website.

No
