What this covers

Tag Manager containers tend to get messy. Several people add tags over the years, nobody removes the old ones, naming is inconsistent, and eventually nobody knows which tags still matter. Duplicate tracking and slow pages follow.

We audit the container, remove what's unused, and rebuild it with a clear naming system and folders. Where your site can provide it, we set up a data layer so tags get reliable information, such as order values or form types, instead of scraping it from the page.

We configure conversion tags for your ad platforms, including enhanced conversions where appropriate, and set up consent mode so tags respect visitor choices.

Is this right for you?

You'll get the most out of it if any of these sound familiar:

  • Your GTM container has tags nobody can explain.
  • Ad platforms report different conversion numbers than GA4.
  • Adding new tracking requires a developer every time.
  • Your site loads many third-party scripts you didn't know about.

What you get

Included in a typical engagement:

  • Container audit and cleanup
  • Naming convention and folder structure
  • Data layer specification and implementation
  • GA4 and ad platform conversion tags
  • Consent mode configuration
  • Testing and documentation

How it works

Most GTM projects take 1 to 2 weeks.

  1. Audit

    We list every tag, trigger, and variable, and test what actually fires.

  2. Plan

    A tracking plan and data layer specification agreed with your team.

  3. Build

    Tags configured in a workspace and tested in preview mode.

  4. Publish

    A documented, versioned release with a rollback point.

What affects the price

Every quote is fixed and written down before work starts. These are the things that move it:

  • Container size and condition
  • Number of ad platforms
  • Data layer development work
  • Server-side tagging if required

Mistakes we plan around

The problems we see most often when this work is rushed:

  • Publishing changes without testing in preview mode.
  • Hard-coding tags in the site and in GTM at the same time.
  • Giving publish access to everyone.

Google Tag Manager Setup questions

What is Google Tag Manager?

A free tool that lets you add and manage tracking codes on your website from one place, without editing the site's code for every change.

Will Tag Manager slow down our site?

GTM itself is light, but the tags inside it can add weight. Cleaning up unused tags often improves page speed.

What is a data layer?

A structured way for your website to pass information such as order totals or form names to Tag Manager, so tracking is accurate and doesn't break when the page design changes.

Do we need server-side tagging?

Not usually for small and mid-size sites. It can help with data accuracy and control for larger advertisers, but it adds hosting cost and complexity.

Services clients commonly combine with this one.
