Thank you for the video !! I have 1 question in general about making all the conversions into Audience. How can i eventually use this converted leads for example, people who visited my services page are warm leads and im converting them with google tag manager and firing the /Services/ page, how do i use them as audience later? This is the only question left for me to complete the all mess. Thank you ahead !!!
Incredible Work Jason¡ First time I hired a marketing freelance to set all this staff. Now I'm saving 60$ on every client I set Google Tags. TAL (Thanks A Lot) You have a friend in Spain 😎
sooooooo rare I ever actually put a like on a video. This is BY FAR the best introduction to setting up GTM for beginners AND techies that are new to GTM. I was putting together some SOP docs for staff - but no need for GTM. I will simply add Jason's video a standard resource that staff can use as a go-to when setting up GTM. After they watch, i will feel very very confident in their step up from beginner to novice - again though, it's great for established techies as a reminder or for when you're just tired and need a refresher. Very well done Jason.
That is so awesome!! This really makes my day because it's exactly what I strive to make these for! Super cool this will save you time on your SOP development 🤓📊 Thanks so much for the comment 🙏🔥🔥

Jason, this is like gold...no, I think it's better than gold! Thank you so much for putting all this work into teaching us all such amazing and complete content like this. As a teacher myself, I gotta say, you are very good at explaining things that are not so easy for the rest of us who are not tech-savvy to grasp. I have been able to set up my own website with these great tools, thanks to you-you have saved me and my wife hundreds of dollars, and we would be glad to support you by buying any upcoming courses you might have. Thank you for the value you've given to the community. God bless.
😁Thank you! A few courses on the way, but for now, just more click-by-click tutorials. Thank you so much for the comment and letting me know it's making a difference. Wish you both the best with your new website!
You have the best way of explaining digital marketing concepts and practices compared to the vast majority of other "gurus" out there. The other guys never spend enough time explaining the organizational hierarchy of resources like GTM or Ads Manager like you do. Thank you so much.
This tutorial was a life saver for me today. I managed to implement Tag Manager for the first time on the day we migrated our website! None of the other tutorials I watched covered the process all the way through. Thank you.
JASON holy crap man! Thank you sooooo much. I can't even explain how helpful this was. I wanna buy a course or some coaching from you soon at the very least to support you and say thanks for making this video.
Nice video. What's the best way for me to know the (sequence of) pages that a user visited before completing my contact form on my website/blog? I want users to click on my free consultation landing page link (which sends them to my contact form). I also have contact forms on the sidebar of each page/post. Gravity forms shows me the page/post url on which the contact form was completed. But it doesn't show the urls the user visited before they complete the contact form. I tried setting up goal funnels on on Google Analytics but that was exhausting and confusing. Thanks in advance!
Awe, gravity forms 😟 I recommend doing a search on how people have gotten tag manger to work with Gravity forms... it's not easy by any means.... The quick fix is to use UTM parameters for all of your incoming links, and create a separate thank you page for the form. That way you can create a goal for that thank you page and you don't have to worry about trying to get tag manager to work with the form. UTM links incoming will tell analytics the source of everyone hitting the page
Awesome to see the videos have been so helpful! 🔥🔥

Hi Jason, I followed the steps mentioned however, I wasn't able to see the tag manager in the Tag assistant. It only showed Google analytics but no Google Tag manager. Could you please help?
The first thing to do would be go back and use preview mode in tag manager to make sure the tags already on your site... And then if the preview is actually there make sure you published it. because if you can see your analytics but not your tag manager that might mean your old install of analytics is still there
This was great, thank you Jason. I do have 2 questions: 1. With shopify, the "thank you" page is different every time, how do you specify a url? 2. Do you create a "burn" pixel so that you do not continue to spend remarketing dollars on people that already purchased? Thanks Jason! Kevin
Hi Kevin, were you able to set up tag manager using a non-premium Shopify plan? What i see here is that tag manager is going to replace all the tracking code; considering that I have FB pixel and google analytics tracking code previously installed to shopify, do i have to manually remove them? Will this results in a pixel data loss? Thak you Mauro
@@watchingyou5892 Yes, installing google tag manager just requires pasting a bit of code. But I am using the facebook pixel integration with shopify so not using that with google tag manager (you don't want to double tag the facebook pixel is my understanding - i.e. both google tag manager and shopify)
1) you'll have to use the "url contains" function for the trigger. So GTM knows it's a confirmation page.... You can also reach out to shopify support to get your data layer turned on. 2) Yes, you can do something like that - an audience of buyers over X number of days so that your remarketing only targets non buyers.
Solid video Jason, I've put off Tag Manger far too long now and got it down pact with your training! Also, I'm curious to know, what is your protocol when recording training tutorials like this? Do you record the video straight through first and have an editor to do the graphics afterwards? What software do you use for editing? Thanks!
Glad your all setup now! Something like this takes a long time since we do it screen-shot by screen-shot; just using Google slides 👍 I used Camtasia to record the screencapture. Our editor uses Adobe Premeire, but everything you saw in this video can be done with screenshot tool, Google Slides, and Camtasia
Awesome job on this complete training course!!!! Lets call it what it is... it's a straight up A-Z tutorial !!! AMAZING JOB !!! My team will be able to use this instantly!! Thank you very much
Bro you have GREAT content and you explain really well... you should have your own website and sell something (I know you offer services) I wish you're makin all the money that you deserve. Thanks
Hey Jason - your tutorials are brilliant. One question I had - is it possible to create an audience within Google Ads / Analytics based on a conversion event? Or do you have to create the audience based on visiting certain domain / page? It seems the latter to me, which is pretty inefficient as you have to basically set up the tag + conversion event to record conversions, then basically do the same again to record an audience. Facebook Ads do it all in one (i.e. you just add the pixel in order to record conversions / audience), so I wondered if Google offers the same?
🙏Thanks so much! Technically Yes - What you'll run into is Google events are typically based upon a page view anyway... However If I'm understanding what your ultimately going for; then I'd try setting up what your trying to do with Google ads directly and keep Analytics out of the equation. Analytics & Google Ads don't talk to each other as well as they should so your probably going to get better results focusing on using Google ads only to do what your trying to do.
Hi Jason, thanks for the awesome tutorial. At 24:49, I don't have a General Parameter. What I have here is "Google Analytics view" to select. FYI, I have one "Smart" campaign running now.
Without seeing your account, I'm not sure why that isn't showing up for you....Make sure you haven't setup the remarketing tag in the past, because if you have this screen will change and you'd have to go to the previously created tag settings to get your tag ID.
Very useful! Thanx. I have a question. What if I want to send my google ads in another site / platform that sells my products? Can I still use gtm? How can I set my conversion tag? I have already given the pixel to the site that sells my products.
Weldone Jason. You simplify and make it easy for everyone to understand. I was wondering if you have any course for submission tracking without thank you page and also 2 layer tracking when we want to track those who converted as lead and did some other action if we direct the lead to another page.
Thank you for the video. I watched the shortened version of adding google analytics to Tag manager. Really helpful. I will watch this video again in more detail. I have two questions 1. I can't seem to find where to add Tag Manager's code to my Wordpress site. I have searched all over and used your three examples but don't seem to have them. Any other suggestions please? 2. I would like to add Tag Manager''s code to my Mailerlite site - how do I do this please i.e. where? Thank you for your help in advance ;)
If it's not showing up, then you may need to use a Plug-in to install it properly. Some themes don't have the option for some reason. This video covers how to do that: Google Tag Manager Wordpress Tutorial: th-cam.com/video/dj7BdHuelME/w-d-xo.html
awesome easy to follow video. i was always concerned about replacing existing code via GTM or messing it up! Just a quick question as you ended setup of tags on GTM but didn't confirm deletion of the existing code! any special notes on this process or is it a straight forward delete and save on platform?
You can use Tag Assistant to see if codes are installed/firing twice on a page. If you see two of the same then you know the old one is still there. Thanks for watching!
great video. In creating the Google Ad conversion tag underneath where you put the conversion ID and conversion label. It says "Enable Restricted Data Processing " do I want to set that to false? How should I label that? Thanks again and great job on this video. It's very noticeable that you put alot of time and effort into making this video.
Hi Jason, Appreciate this video! It's helped a lot! However, I have a quick question, after doing the whole set up, adding Google Tag Manager code to my theme, and setting up google ads & analytics, I don't see any tracking happening. Did I miss something?
You mean no tracing in your analytics? That's not good! As long as you can see the tags in tag assistant they are on your site. Also try using the preview mode to insure the tags are firing at the right time....Also check the UA code is for the right account...hopefully one of these helps get you pointed in the right direction 👍
Dude you're the MAN. I just figured out what was wrong with my tag installation. I spend $5-10k a week on adverising and am looking to get into YT ads...can we connect?
Nice! For TH-cam ads, this the the latest video we have on the subject: Zero to Launch: TH-cam Ads Campaign Tutorial 2019: th-cam.com/video/6PBIPH74VSE/w-d-xo.html If your looking to work with us to run your ads for you, just fill out the contact form on my site (jasonwhaling .com) 👍
Great video, and thank you for all the valuable information, does this method work on multiple products or just one and how to use it for multiple product without recreating the custom HTML code multiple times and thank you
You can use the GTM code on all of your sites and page building softwares. Not sure I understand your question on custom HTML? If you're referring to a HTML site, yes, you need to paste the GTM code on to every single page.... If I missed the mark just make a new comment with more info. Thanks so much for watching!
At what point specifically do you delete the platform-specific tags from your site? After you've installed the Google Tag Manager code on your website AND added the platform-specific tags to Google Tag Manager?
Yes. I'd recommend installing tag manager, checking that everything is working and then removing the old tags.... That's just me though, if your having a ton of traffic then it make make more sense to do it the other way. Just depends on what kind of data inconsistencies you'd rather deal with.
Superb, easy to follow training for a platform that is far from intuitive! Many thanks. If you have an up to date video that shows how to do the conversion tracking with Facebook that would be the cherry on top - I couldn't figure that out and, (surprise, surprise), GTM doesn't have Facebook conversions as a trigger option. (Can't imagine why!) . :-)
😁Awesome!👍 I'm sorry we couldn't include the FB conversion tracking.... It seems like we change how we do it every 3 months which is why we left it out. The simplest thing you can do to track conversions, is to set it up in your FB ads manager. You can set conversion or a custom audience based upon a page view in your pixel settings inside of your FB ad account. Otherwise, you'll have to set up a trigger for a page view of your confirmation page, then add a new tag with the FB conversion code, and set it to fire based upon that trigger.
Yes - you should be using this with Google Analytics and Google Ads. Once you've followed this tutorial, you want to make sure that you remove all of your old tags so that they are on your site only once
Hi Jason, cool tutorial, thank you! I have a question though. If I already had the conversion tracking set up in Google Ads and just started using Google Tag Manager, should I create a conversion tracking tag in Google Tag Manager and then remove the one I had in Google Ads? Thank you!
Hi there, massive thanks for this video! Super helpful when I was trying to figure out how to set up GTM with our GA. Quick question: How do I check if the custom conversion event is properly reflecting in our GA Report? I tried it all weekend but I can't seem to see the custom event anywhere on our GA account.
Here's the 2022 update: th-cam.com/video/yRcqxKegvxc/w-d-xo.html Inside of Google ads you can see if the conversion tag you've setup has been verified. Most of the time you need to wait for it to fire once from a campaign... As long as you can see it using the GTM preview on the page you should be good to go
Great vid as always. I recall you “not retroactive” warning ⚠️ in another video as well. Thank you for focusing on the details and delivering so much value for all to benefit from!
Hey Jason, amazing video. So much help. Two questions: 1. at 12:17 you say that you are using a plugin to block your Admin and Editor activity on the website. What plugin is that? 2. Do you recommend manually adding the Google Task Manager code to your website or using a plugin? Are there any big benefits for either one? Thank you very much man, really appreciate it
🙏Thank you..... 1) Search for "Analytics opt-out plug-in" and you'll find it. 2) Completely dependent upon what your comfortable with. To keep from breaking a site, I'd recommend sticking with a plug-in (GTM WordPress Plugin Guide th-cam.com/video/bfawJYgv0v0/w-d-xo.html)
Ok, I now have 2 pixels on my website. My guess is I'm supposed to use the one associated with the "Tags Manager". Do I remove the other pixel?(this one is already set up with ads) Please clarify!
Hi Jason, may i know how to integrate GTM into mailerlite landing page? I noticed theres a "customs html code" BLOCKS but do i need 2 blocks or I just need to use 1 blocks for html codes ? thanks before
In Mailerlite you can add both of the codes you need to each of your landing pages. You'll paste the first part in the header and the second in the body tag section. 👍
Thanks, Jason. Everything works. But, I haven't any green labels in Google Tag Assistant. They're all have a blue color. What does this green labels means?
Great video, learning a lot! My question is this: How do you block the websites from tracking your data? I've tried and nothing seems to work and it's throwing off my stuff and driving me nuts. Is it a program you use?
Not sure what sites your referring to... If you want to be protected as you personally browse using private mode in Firefox is pretty good..... If you need Analytics to not track you, there is an opt-out chrome plug-in from google so you aren't tracked via analytics...Hope one of those is a step in the right direction.
I currently have a global site tag (gtag.js) for Google Analytics then Google Tag Manager. Since watching this video and adding Google Analytics to Google Tag Manager, can I delete the Google Analytics in the now and just keep the Google Tag Manager in the header and body? Great video and appreciate the help.
For Page builders like Elementor with different templates for headers, footers, etc, will it work with the Insert Headers and Footers plugin or do we still have to go into the code and insert it so it will fire on all pages?
For a WordPress site you want it across all of your pages, not manually adding it to each page that you build with elementor... so you need to add it in your theme settings or use a plug-in to add it across your site... But it shouldn't be in the actual page builder itself because you're on WordPress
Hi Jason and thank you for this amazing content. Will i be able to set up tag manager using a non-premium Shopify plan? What I see here is that tag manager is going to replace all the tracking code; considering that I have FB pixel and google analytics tracking code previously installed to Shopify, do I have to manually remove them? Will this results in a pixel data loss? Thank you Mauro
You do need to have one of the higher Shopify tiers in order to use Tag Manger. Yes, you'll have to remove the old tags/pixels once tag manager is on your site - I recommend installing GTM and then removing the old ones so you don't lose data - just a few minutes of double counting.
First THANK YOU for your helpful videos. They have been amazing. Wanted to ask, once we have the tags set up, how do we properly track the performance? I assume we revert back to Google Analytics and/or facebook pixel but I think I missed were exactly to look for the data that these tags create. For example If I create a conversion tag that tracks how often a thank you page is visited, where exactly do I see the details of that tag? Thank you again for your help. I am currently watching your analytics video in case I missed something on setup.
Your right that you'll go back to Google Analytics or Facebook for reading and analyzing all that sweet data 🤓.... So once you have the tags on your site, that analytics video will show you how to read all the data you are collecting. I don't have any videos on FB ads since we aren't running any right now. Thanks for watching and your kind words!
Great video, thank you for the guide! Quick question, how do have the Google Tag manager quick preview appear as an overlay in the bottom when you are on the website to preview the tags?
You need to be in preview mode in Google Tag Manager using a chrome web browser. once in preview mode you go to the site, refresh the page, and you'll see all of that at the bottom
@@JasonAWhaling I meant the conversion event, like when they get from your landing page to your thank you page? Is there a way to create that within Google Tag Manager for Facebook pixels?
Hey Jason I am having trouble with my conversion events not firing. I have started over 4 times and still getting the same results. Please let me know what you think I'm doing wrong.
Gosh that's frustrating... I'm sorry that's happening to you. I'd go back to make sure Tag Manager itself is working on the site and then making a new trigger that is an exact based upon the url
Hi Jason! That's a totally awesome tutorial! Thank you for doing this!!!! I have a question, what do I do if the website I am working already has different tags installed from someone else that used to do digital marketing on the website. How do get them all within the Google Tag Manager that I just installed so there are not duplicate tags working simultaneous?
Happy to help! Good to hear Google Tag Manager is up and running 😁..... If you have access to the site, you should be able to see the UA/Tags/Pixels in the same areas where you placed the Tag Manager code. You can: 1) Add them to your tag manager 2) just remove them The best route would be to see if you can get direct access to those accounts, because the data already collected should be helpful to your client.
Can I manage different Google Ads Tags for different websites of mine using the same google account (email address) or do I need to have a unique Google account (email address) for each individual website? Thanks, great tutorial!
@@JasonAWhaling I know I can create different containers for each website on Google analytics but I cannot see how to create a container on Google Ads to get a different ID. Any tips? Thanks again Jason! 👍
Accessing your data layer so you can do more triggers than a page load is some advanced stuff... check out the Measure School channel for more on how to do 👍
Hi Jason. Thank you so much for this newer version of the GTM installation. Do any of your videos show how to install floodlight tags from other sources? I'm also wanting to add tags from Twitter, and LinkedIn as well. What are the best tutorials for this?
Hi Jason, thank you so much for the awesome helpful video. In my case the only platform I had setup before GTM was Analytics, and thus I should delete the code from the website after having GTM installed. My question is, will the data tracked until now be deleted on the platform if i delete the code from the website? or because I have already setup GTM, the previous data collected will not be lost? Thank you so much!
When you remove a tag from your site, it doesn't remove the data from your account - it just stops collecting new data. In your case, your tracking will continue because you added the GA tag back to your site via GTM. Your old data and new data collection should be fine
Thank you sooo much Jason! This was the most helpful TGM set up tutorial I've found. I HAVE A QUESTION, I already have my Facebook Pixel added to my woocommerce page, and it is really useful when it comes to creating products ads and tracking product conversions. Is it necessary to change my pixel to Tag manager, will it give all these advantages to? Thank you so much.
You can have all of the pixel advantages inside of tag manager.... Your plugin might be passing along data layer information to Facebook though; so unless you know for sure that there's no data layer feature, probably best to leave it alone... if it isn't broken, don't fix it 😄
Hi Jason, thank you so much for this informative video. With your help, I was able to successfully add Fb Pixel and GAW to my GTM. However, I’m a little confused about whether or not should I remove GA UA-ID from my Wix website. I already had the GA ID configured in GTM. Also, how to make sure I’m not getting duplicated results for any of my analytics or ads collected data?
Hi my Google Ads account was set up years ago with my one and only gmail account at the time. I have since migrated my domain from Yahoo to Squarespace, and my old yahoo business email is now a new GSuite email. My Ads campaign still runs from my old gmail account though. So my question is: can sign up for Tags Mgr acct using my new GSuite work email? Or do I need to sign up with the personal gmail acct that my Google Ads is associated with?
Great job Jason - thank you so much. After installing the first tag from this video, my shopify site only shows that new tag. Your example shows GA tag too. GA still installed in shopify pref, but what, if anything, am i doing wrong?
Shopify is a tricky one. It may be better to have the GA tag installed through their system by adding the UA code.... As long as you can see your Google Tag Manager tag using assistant it's on your site and then you can trouble shoot the individual tags from there.
Thank you for the great videos! Very easy to follow along to. Is there any reason I would keep getting two google tag manager tags showing up when I use the tag assistant? It seems to me that the header tag shows, then a a few seconds later its the body tag showing, which ends up displaying as two tags. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance for your help.
The first thing you want to check is the GTM id to see if it's the same tag manger code or two different ones. Either way you'll want to try and figure out where the second one is on your site... Double check it's not pasted twice 👍

Glad it was helpful! Happy tracking!
OUTSTANDING! The best Video on GTM, uncluttered the cluster of knowledge in my mind.
Fantastic to hear! Hope Tag Manager is all up and running for ya now 👍
Nice video. What's the best way for me to know the (sequence of) pages that a user visited before completing my contact form on my website/blog?
I want users to click on my free consultation landing page link (which sends them to my contact form). I also have contact forms on the sidebar of each page/post. Gravity forms shows me the page/post url on which the contact form was completed. But it doesn't show the urls the user visited before they complete the contact form.
I tried setting up goal funnels on on Google Analytics but that was exhausting and confusing.
Thanks in advance!
Awe, gravity forms 😟 I recommend doing a search on how people have gotten tag manger to work with Gravity forms... it's not easy by any means....

2. Do you create a "burn" pixel so that you do not continue to spend remarketing dollars on people that already purchased?
Thanks Jason!

Hi Kevin, were you able to set up tag manager using a non-premium Shopify plan? What i see here is that tag manager is going to replace all the tracking code; considering that I have FB pixel and google analytics tracking code previously installed to shopify, do i have to manually remove them? Will this results in a pixel data loss?
Thak you
Mauro
@@watchingyou5892 Yes, installing google tag manager just requires pasting a bit of code. But I am using the facebook pixel integration with shopify so not using that with google tag manager (you don't want to double tag the facebook pixel is my understanding - i.e. both google tag manager and shopify)
1) you'll have to use the "url contains" function for the trigger. So GTM knows it's a confirmation page.... You can also reach out to shopify support to get your data layer turned on.
2) Yes, you can do something like that - an audience of buyers over X number of days so that your remarketing only targets non buyers.
Solid video Jason, I've put off Tag Manger far too long now and got it down pact with your training! Also, I'm curious to know, what is your protocol when recording training tutorials like this? Do you record the video straight through first and have an editor to do the graphics afterwards? What software do you use for editing? Thanks!
Glad your all setup now! Something like this takes a long time since we do it screen-shot by screen-shot; just using Google slides 👍 I used Camtasia to record the screencapture. Our editor uses Adobe Premeire, but everything you saw in this video can be done with screenshot tool, Google Slides, and Camtasia
Awesome job on this complete training course!!!! Lets call it what it is... it's a straight up A-Z tutorial !!! AMAZING JOB !!! My team will be able to use this instantly!! Thank you very much
Fantastic! That's exactly what I was going for with this latest Tag Manager video!
Hi Jason!
Great video! Do you have any guides on cleaning your site of old tags? How to get rid of Google ads conversion tracking tag etc. ?
Thanks!
Sorry I don't have any videos on that
Sincere thanks for making and sharing this super helpful and informative resource on Google Tag Manager...
👍 Glad you got everything set up!
Bro you have GREAT content and you explain really well... you should have your own website and sell something (I know you offer services) I wish you're makin all the money that you deserve. Thanks
🙏 Humbled thank you so much! Website rebuild in progress and I hope your find the other videos helpful as well!
Hey Jason - your tutorials are brilliant. One question I had - is it possible to create an audience within Google Ads / Analytics based on a conversion event? Or do you have to create the audience based on visiting certain domain / page? It seems the latter to me, which is pretty inefficient as you have to basically set up the tag + conversion event to record conversions, then basically do the same again to record an audience. Facebook Ads do it all in one (i.e. you just add the pixel in order to record conversions / audience), so I wondered if Google offers the same?
🙏Thanks so much! Technically Yes - What you'll run into is Google events are typically based upon a page view anyway... However If I'm understanding what your ultimately going for; then I'd try setting up what your trying to do with Google ads directly and keep Analytics out of the equation. Analytics & Google Ads don't talk to each other as well as they should so your probably going to get better results focusing on using Google ads only to do what your trying to do.
Jason Whaling thanks Jason! I think I prefer the Facebook pixels setup lol.
Wow, excellent course video. I make everything like you teach it. I love how you explained very easy!!
Awesome you were able to install everything!
That was Extremely helpful, Thank you!
Happy to help and hope your all set with Tag Manager now!
as always straight to the point with no crapping. thanks alot and much love and respect.
🙏Thanks.... Glad your good to go with Tag Manager👍
Hi Jason, thanks for the awesome tutorial. At 24:49, I don't have a General Parameter. What I have here is "Google Analytics view" to select. FYI, I have one "Smart" campaign running now.
Without seeing your account, I'm not sure why that isn't showing up for you....Make sure you haven't setup the remarketing tag in the past, because if you have this screen will change and you'd have to go to the previously created tag settings to get your tag ID.
You just leveled up my life to the next higher level. Thank you!
😁Nice! Glad your all set up with Google Tag Manager 🚀
Very useful! Thanx. I have a question. What if I want to send my google ads in another site / platform that sells my products? Can I still use gtm? How can I set my conversion tag? I have already given the pixel to the site that sells my products.
You can use the same GTM even if it's a different domain. That will help keep your tracking all in one place
This video was a lot more helpful than the previous Tag Manager video. Thank you!
Delighted to hear it was an improvement over the previous tag manager video. That was the goal, thank you so much for watching.
great tutorials man! love the content and easy to learn
Happy to help! Thanks!
Weldone Jason. You simplify and make it easy for everyone to understand. I was wondering if you have any course for submission tracking without thank you page and also 2 layer tracking when we want to track those who converted as lead and did some other action if we direct the lead to another page.
I don't have that kind of tutorial yet 😅.... The Measure School TH-cam channel have videos that dive into data layer based triggers.
Thank you Jason, this made my life easier in tag manager setup for all pages - kudos to your effort and support
Yay! Great to hear. Glad tag manager is working for you 👍
This is so great! Really simple explanation and very helpful thank you for making this video Jason!
Delighted to hear it! Glad your all good to go with tag manager 🔥
Thank you for the video. I watched the shortened version of adding google analytics to Tag manager. Really helpful. I will watch this video again in more detail. I have two questions 1. I can't seem to find where to add Tag Manager's code to my Wordpress site. I have searched all over and used your three examples but don't seem to have them. Any other suggestions please? 2. I would like to add Tag Manager''s code to my Mailerlite site - how do I do this please i.e. where? Thank you for your help in advance ;)
If it's not showing up, then you may need to use a Plug-in to install it properly. Some themes don't have the option for some reason. This video covers how to do that:
Google Tag Manager Wordpress Tutorial: th-cam.com/video/dj7BdHuelME/w-d-xo.html
awesome easy to follow video. i was always concerned about replacing existing code via GTM or messing it up! Just a quick question as you ended setup of tags on GTM but didn't confirm deletion of the existing code! any special notes on this process or is it a straight forward delete and save on platform?
You can use Tag Assistant to see if codes are installed/firing twice on a page. If you see two of the same then you know the old one is still there. Thanks for watching!
Too good. Definitely one of the best!
Cool, thank you! Glad your good to go with all your tags 🔥
great video. In creating the Google Ad conversion tag underneath where you put the conversion ID and conversion label. It says "Enable Restricted Data Processing " do I want to set that to false? How should I label that? Thanks again and great job on this video. It's very noticeable that you put alot of time and effort into making this video.
You should be able to leave that alone without having to label it... Thanks for your comment and support!
Hi Jason, Appreciate this video! It's helped a lot! However, I have a quick question, after doing the whole set up, adding Google Tag Manager code to my theme, and setting up google ads & analytics, I don't see any tracking happening. Did I miss something?
You mean no tracing in your analytics? That's not good! As long as you can see the tags in tag assistant they are on your site. Also try using the preview mode to insure the tags are firing at the right time....Also check the UA code is for the right account...hopefully one of these helps get you pointed in the right direction 👍
First rate explanation - thanks!
Thank you! Hope you got Tag Manager all set up 👍
Thank you Jason! This is godsend!
🔥Awesome! Crush it with your Google Ads!
Dude you're the MAN. I just figured out what was wrong with my tag installation. I spend $5-10k a week on adverising and am looking to get into YT ads...can we connect?

Great to hear bit was helpful getting tag manger all set up! Thanks for the support 🙏
Great video, and thank you for all the valuable information, does this method work on multiple products or just one and how to use it for multiple product without recreating the custom HTML code multiple times and thank you
You can use the GTM code on all of your sites and page building softwares. Not sure I understand your question on custom HTML? If you're referring to a HTML site, yes, you need to paste the GTM code on to every single page.... If I missed the mark just make a new comment with more info. Thanks so much for watching!
Incredibly valuable... thank you for making this video
Happy to hear 🔥
Good luck with Google Tag Manager
At what point specifically do you delete the platform-specific tags from your site? After you've installed the Google Tag Manager code on your website AND added the platform-specific tags to Google Tag Manager?
Yes. I'd recommend installing tag manager, checking that everything is working and then removing the old tags.... That's just me though, if your having a ton of traffic then it make make more sense to do it the other way. Just depends on what kind of data inconsistencies you'd rather deal with.
Superb, easy to follow training for a platform that is far from intuitive! Many thanks. If you have an up to date video that shows how to do the conversion tracking with Facebook that would be the cherry on top - I couldn't figure that out and, (surprise, surprise), GTM doesn't have Facebook conversions as a trigger option. (Can't imagine why!) . :-)
😁Awesome!👍
I'm sorry we couldn't include the FB conversion tracking.... It seems like we change how we do it every 3 months which is why we left it out. The simplest thing you can do to track conversions, is to set it up in your FB ads manager. You can set conversion or a custom audience based upon a page view in your pixel settings inside of your FB ad account.
Otherwise, you'll have to set up a trigger for a page view of your confirmation page, then add a new tag with the FB conversion code, and set it to fire based upon that trigger.
Very well organized video, nice job!
Glad to hear it was helpful - hope your all good to go with Tag Manager now!
Thanks for the awesome video Jason. I loved how you organized it and made it so easy to follow. Looking forward to watch more from you.
Thank you 🙏. Hope you find the future Google Tag Manager videos just as helpful. Happy data tracking 🚀
Jason first THANK YOU! quick question.. will this effect auto tagging with google ads platform?
Yes - you should be using this with Google Analytics and Google Ads. Once you've followed this tutorial, you want to make sure that you remove all of your old tags so that they are on your site only once
Wow great video
love to watch more,nice video thanks for sharing with us
More Google Tag Manager videos to come!🔥
Thanks for watching 🙏
Just added all my tags to the website and all seems to be firing correctly. Thanks Again!
Awesome bro! Crush it with those ads 🔥🔥
Nice tutorial. Can I ask what's the name of the plugin to block myself in order to not be tracked in my own marketing campaign? Tnx
Search the Chrome webstore for 'Analytics opt-out'
Hi Jason, cool tutorial, thank you! I have a question though. If I already had the conversion tracking set up in Google Ads and just started using Google Tag Manager, should I create a conversion tracking tag in Google Tag Manager and then remove the one I had in Google Ads? Thank you!
Yes! Once you have it on your site with Tag Manger remove the old one so your don't get double tracking
Great video, very useful. Thanks!
Awesome to hear! Hope Tag Manager is all set up and firing away 🔥
Hi there, massive thanks for this video! Super helpful when I was trying to figure out how to set up GTM with our GA. Quick question: How do I check if the custom conversion event is properly reflecting in our GA Report? I tried it all weekend but I can't seem to see the custom event anywhere on our GA account.
I checked out the updated 2022 version and that was awesome, really helps with figuring out the steps I need to do to set everything up.
Here's the 2022 update: th-cam.com/video/yRcqxKegvxc/w-d-xo.html
Inside of Google ads you can see if the conversion tag you've setup has been verified. Most of the time you need to wait for it to fire once from a campaign... As long as you can see it using the GTM preview on the page you should be good to go
hey what plugins or google extensions are you using from preventing your own ip from being part of the data for facebook pixel and goole analytics
Google has a plug-in you can install - search for "analytics opt-out" in the chrome store to keep yourself from being counted
Love you Jason
You are like hero for me
😅Happy the tutorial was so helpful
Jason. Thank you. Excellent job. Keep up the awesome work and building the business you love.
Awesome to hear it was helpful! Most detailed tutorials to come! Thank you for the support 🙏
Great vid as always. I recall you “not retroactive” warning ⚠️ in another video as well. Thank you for focusing on the details and delivering so much value for all to benefit from!
Yeah, Google Analytics isn't retroactive either. It's critical to get this stuff down now to collect that sweet data 😄
Thanks for all your support!
Awesome Video Jason, you are an incredible teacher, very well done. Thank You!
Thank you! I'm glad it got Tag Manager working for ya!
great tutorial - really the stuff I have been looking for - totally hands on structured
How many here at... Glad it was helpful and getting Google tag manager firing I'm all cylinders 😆🔥🚀

Hey Jason, amazing video. So much help. Two questions:
1. at 12:17 you say that you are using a plugin to block your Admin and Editor activity on the website. What plugin is that?
2. Do you recommend manually adding the Google Task Manager code to your website or using a plugin? Are there any big benefits for either one?
Thank you very much man, really appreciate it
🙏Thank you.....
1) Search for "Analytics opt-out plug-in" and you'll find it.
2) Completely dependent upon what your comfortable with. To keep from breaking a site, I'd recommend sticking with a plug-in (GTM WordPress Plugin Guide th-cam.com/video/bfawJYgv0v0/w-d-xo.html)
@@JasonAWhaling Wow, thank you very much Jason! Have a good one my friend :)
Ok, I now have 2 pixels on my website. My guess is I'm supposed to use the one associated with the "Tags Manager". Do I remove the other pixel?(this one is already set up with ads) Please clarify!
Yes. Once you have your pixel in side of tag manager and live on your site, remove the old one that isn't inside of tag manager 👍
Hi Jason, may i know how to integrate GTM into mailerlite landing page? I noticed theres a "customs html code" BLOCKS but do i need 2 blocks or I just need to use 1 blocks for html codes ? thanks before
In Mailerlite you can add both of the codes you need to each of your landing pages. You'll paste the first part in the header and the second in the body tag section. 👍
Wow, such a detail and easily understandable video. Thank you very much! This is what i'm looking for 😃
Awesome to hear! Glad you were able to get Google Tag Manager all set up! 👍
Thanks, Jason. Everything works. But, I haven't any green labels in Google Tag Assistant. They're all have a blue color. What does this green labels means?
Blue means they are good to go too! Your all set up 👍
(I don't remember the difference off the top of my head 😅)
Great video, learning a lot!
My question is this: How do you block the websites from tracking your data? I've tried and nothing seems to work and it's throwing off my stuff and driving me nuts. Is it a program you use?
Not sure what sites your referring to... If you want to be protected as you personally browse using private mode in Firefox is pretty good..... If you need Analytics to not track you, there is an opt-out chrome plug-in from google so you aren't tracked via analytics...Hope one of those is a step in the right direction.
@@JasonAWhaling Yeah, reading back over that I wasn't clear. I was talking about Analytics, so you still got me covered! I appreciate it! Thanks!
I currently have a global site tag (gtag.js) for Google Analytics then Google Tag Manager. Since watching this video and adding Google Analytics to Google Tag Manager, can I delete the Google Analytics in the now and just keep the Google Tag Manager in the header and body? Great video and appreciate the help.
Yes, you can remove your old installs once you've completed this tutorial 👍
@@JasonAWhaling This tutorial rocks! Thank you so much for your help! This is very valuable
For Page builders like Elementor with different templates for headers, footers, etc, will it work with the Insert Headers and Footers plugin or do we still have to go into the code and insert it so it will fire on all pages?
For a WordPress site you want it across all of your pages, not manually adding it to each page that you build with elementor... so you need to add it in your theme settings or use a plug-in to add it across your site... But it shouldn't be in the actual page builder itself because you're on WordPress
Hi Jason and thank you for this amazing content.
Will i be able to set up tag manager using a non-premium Shopify plan? What I see here is that tag manager is going to replace all the tracking code; considering that I have FB pixel and google analytics tracking code previously installed to Shopify, do I have to manually remove them? Will this results in a pixel data loss?
Thank you
Mauro
You do need to have one of the higher Shopify tiers in order to use Tag Manger. Yes, you'll have to remove the old tags/pixels once tag manager is on your site - I recommend installing GTM and then removing the old ones so you don't lose data - just a few minutes of double counting.
First THANK YOU for your helpful videos. They have been amazing. Wanted to ask, once we have the tags set up, how do we properly track the performance? I assume we revert back to Google Analytics and/or facebook pixel but I think I missed were exactly to look for the data that these tags create. For example If I create a conversion tag that tracks how often a thank you page is visited, where exactly do I see the details of that tag? Thank you again for your help. I am currently watching your analytics video in case I missed something on setup.
Your right that you'll go back to Google Analytics or Facebook for reading and analyzing all that sweet data 🤓.... So once you have the tags on your site, that analytics video will show you how to read all the data you are collecting. I don't have any videos on FB ads since we aren't running any right now. Thanks for watching and your kind words!
Great video, thank you for the guide! Quick question, how do have the Google Tag manager quick preview appear as an overlay in the bottom when you are on the website to preview the tags?
You need to be in preview mode in Google Tag Manager using a chrome web browser. once in preview mode you go to the site, refresh the page, and you'll see all of that at the bottom
Jason, see how at the end you created a conversion tag for Google, is there an equivalent for Facebook pixels/tracking?
You can use the Facebook pixel helper. You can download it the same way you found google tag assistant from the chrome web store 👍
@@JasonAWhaling I meant the conversion event, like when they get from your landing page to your thank you page? Is there a way to create that within Google Tag Manager for Facebook pixels?
Hey Jason I am having trouble with my conversion events not firing. I have started over 4 times and still getting the same results. Please let me know what you think I'm doing wrong.
Gosh that's frustrating... I'm sorry that's happening to you. I'd go back to make sure Tag Manager itself is working on the site and then making a new trigger that is an exact based upon the url
This is a really good video. You're a great teacher. Thank you.
🙏Thank you. Hope you are all setup and good to go with Google Tag Manager
Hi Jason! That's a totally awesome tutorial! Thank you for doing this!!!! I have a question, what do I do if the website I am working already has different tags installed from someone else that used to do digital marketing on the website. How do get them all within the Google Tag Manager that I just installed so there are not duplicate tags working simultaneous?
Happy to help! Good to hear Google Tag Manager is up and running 😁..... If you have access to the site, you should be able to see the UA/Tags/Pixels in the same areas where you placed the Tag Manager code. You can:
1) Add them to your tag manager
2) just remove them
The best route would be to see if you can get direct access to those accounts, because the data already collected should be helpful to your client.
Thank you. I learned a lot! Wow.
🙌 Good luck with Tag Manager!
Can I manage different Google Ads Tags for different websites of mine using the same google account (email address) or do I need to have a unique Google account (email address) for each individual website? Thanks, great tutorial!
You can use the same account for all your sites... You just want to make sure you create a unique container for each site 👍
@@JasonAWhaling I know I can create different containers for each website on Google analytics but I cannot see how to create a container on Google Ads to get a different ID. Any tips? Thanks again Jason! 👍
Great stuff very precise, just need to know how to trigger without landing pages, ie phone numbers etc, but good work.
Accessing your data layer so you can do more triggers than a page load is some advanced stuff... check out the Measure School channel for more on how to do 👍
Hi Jason. Thank you so much for this newer version of the GTM installation. Do any of your videos show how to install floodlight tags from other sources? I'm also wanting to add tags from Twitter, and LinkedIn as well. What are the best tutorials for this?
Sorry I don't have a tutorial like that yet.
Hi Jason, thank you so much for the awesome helpful video. In my case the only platform I had setup before GTM was Analytics, and thus I should delete the code from the website after having GTM installed. My question is, will the data tracked until now be deleted on the platform if i delete the code from the website? or because I have already setup GTM, the previous data collected will not be lost? Thank you so much!
When you remove a tag from your site, it doesn't remove the data from your account - it just stops collecting new data.
In your case, your tracking will continue because you added the GA tag back to your site via GTM. Your old data and new data collection should be fine
@@JasonAWhaling thank you so much! Everything is working great! Thank you for the simply explained and very helpful videos!
Thank you sooo much Jason! This was the most helpful TGM set up tutorial I've found. I HAVE A QUESTION, I already have my Facebook Pixel added to my woocommerce page, and it is really useful when it comes to creating products ads and tracking product conversions. Is it necessary to change my pixel to Tag manager, will it give all these advantages to?
Thank you so much.
You can have all of the pixel advantages inside of tag manager.... Your plugin might be passing along data layer information to Facebook though; so unless you know for sure that there's no data layer feature, probably best to leave it alone... if it isn't broken, don't fix it 😄
@@JasonAWhaling Thank you so much!
Hi Jason, thank you so much for this informative video. With your help, I was able to successfully add Fb Pixel and GAW to my GTM. However, I’m a little confused about whether or not should I remove GA UA-ID from my Wix website. I already had the GA ID configured in GTM. Also, how to make sure I’m not getting duplicated results for any of my analytics or ads collected data?
First off, awesome! 🏆
You will want to remove all codes that are not in Google Tag Manager. That will insure you don't double count things. 👍
This was extremely helpful, thank you!
Happy to help! Good luck with your tracking!
Very explanatory... Thank you so much for this.
Delighted to hear it🙏.
Crush it with Google Tag Manager
Hi my Google Ads account was set up years ago with my one and only gmail account at the time. I have since migrated my domain from Yahoo to Squarespace, and my old yahoo business email is now a new GSuite email. My Ads campaign still runs from my old gmail account though. So my question is: can sign up for Tags Mgr acct using my new GSuite work email? Or do I need to sign up with the personal gmail acct that my Google Ads is associated with?
You can use the email you already have. No need to create a new one 👍
Great job Jason - thank you so much. After installing the first tag from this video, my shopify site only shows that new tag. Your example shows GA tag too. GA still installed in shopify pref, but what, if anything, am i doing wrong?
Shopify is a tricky one. It may be better to have the GA tag installed through their system by adding the UA code.... As long as you can see your Google Tag Manager tag using assistant it's on your site and then you can trouble shoot the individual tags from there.
Thank you for the great videos! Very easy to follow along to. Is there any reason I would keep getting two google tag manager tags showing up when I use the tag assistant? It seems to me that the header tag shows, then a a few seconds later its the body tag showing, which ends up displaying as two tags. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance for your help.
The first thing you want to check is the GTM id to see if it's the same tag manger code or two different ones. Either way you'll want to try and figure out where the second one is on your site... Double check it's not pasted twice 👍
Awesome video Jason! Great Info!
😁Thanks man!
