What is Google Tag Manager?
Learn more about tag management systems in general, Google Tag Manager implementation strategy, and the benefits of Google Tag Manager. Google Tag Manager doesn’t replace Google Analytics but helps make the process of tagging your website and tracking actions on your site easier.
Tags, Triggers, and Variables, oh my!
Learn these three important concepts inside of Google Tag Manager and how they interact with each other. We’ll create Tags, Triggers, and Variables that are extensible and easy to maintain.
Built-In Tags
Learn how to easily connect Google Tag Manager to Google Ads, Google Analytics, eCommerce tracking, jQuery, and more.
Using Click and Form Triggers
Learn how to use Triggers to automatically fire tags when actions occur on your site, like PDF downloads, outbound links, email or telephone links, contact form submissions, or inbound lead submissions. We’ll use these common items as examples in the class so you gain real-world experience.
What is the dataLayer?
What is it and why is it important? See how developers can use a well-formed dataLayer to make information available for use inside of Google Tag Manager.
Capabilities & Limitations
These days everything is custom-built with its own custom problems. Learn the best site layout practices for when you can make changes to your website, as well as outside-the-box solutions for when you can’t.
When Do I Need A Developer?
For many tagging requests, Google Tag Manager lessens the need for a developer and empowers marketers or analysts to add custom tracking, Google Analytics events, and third-party tags in mere minutes.
For more complicated scenarios, like connecting to backend data sources or implementing eCommerce, Google Tag Manager will make the process easier but will require collaboration with a developer.
