Found this video on Neil Patel's site. Love the detail explained - thank you! However, GTM has changed a lot since this was filmed. Would love to see an updated version!
Wow! This kind of detailed tutorial, highlighting how to track specific events, and how to view the data in Analytics, are very hard to find. Thanks a lot!
You mention around 6:50 that "two things have changed on this page: one, we have removed the regular Google Analytics tracking code and two, we have added the Google Tag manager container." You then say GTM keeps tracking GA metrics, which is great - can you continue to see the Analytics date alongside the data from before it was removed? We're preparing to replace our GA snippet with GTM and don't want to lose our GA data. This video was enormously helpful. Thank you!
Great video! Just to clarify, for the hover event, you still need to hard code the hover image links on the page to capture that hover event in Tag Manager? That is sometimes where I find myself waiting a bit for a change request to be approved to a page template.
So do I have to have the Google Analytics snippet of code and the Google Tag Management snippet on the same page? Or is it just the Google Tag Manager snippet on all existing pages for everything in Google analytics plus the GTM to work? Thanks.
Good video. Most of it was over my head, but good inf still. I have been asking a lot of people how I view information that I put into GTM. In my case I created a trigger and associated a tag with it to fire when certain page views are made. But how do I view that information? I dont see my tags or triggers anywhere in GA. Furthermore, in my case I ONLY want to see the information from specific web pages for certain clients. How do I view the information from the regex that I set up in GTM? Thanks
EXCELLENT video but I am ROFL over how ridiculous it is that the nerds at Google think that Tag Manager has made it "easy" for marketing folks to insert tags on their website. What marijuana are they smoking at the Google plex? This is anything but simple!
Jason McDonald Absolutely agree! This is ridiculous. Imagine a dashboard for a large website. Pure madness! Many thanks for the video. I'm having a bad time migrating events from pure GA to GTM.
Thank you for the tutorial, very informative. What if we want to track a specific link? for example, we have multiple links that point to mysite.com/a.html, but we want to track the clicks on a banner which point to mysite.com/a.html through event tracking.
This is a nice video However your explaining to us as if we are pros at this you forgot to mention how you got gtm.linkclick to enter it into the rules. It took me allot of time to figure this out there are also many other things missing on how this works and where you are getting the variables from. Nice try but still extremely frustrating to follow when none of this works

Dottie Combs Hi, did you find out if you remove GA tracking code and add the container without losing GA data?
Great video. Tags are interesting concept. You do the show well.
Thanks for the video. Do you have a video for form submissions tracking?
Great video! Just to clarify, for the hover event, you still need to hard code the hover image links on the page to capture that hover event in Tag Manager? That is sometimes where I find myself waiting a bit for a change request to be approved to a page template.
Great video. What abouttracking Facebook ad conversions to know what products and the $$$ attributed to specific FB ads?
Thanks, a clear and easy introduction to Google Tag Manager!

Very helpful.. Thanks for uploading...

Wow! This is complicated. No wonder there are 10,000 analytics startups!
Great tutorial, how about video views? Can you also track Completions, etc?

Many thanks for the video. I'm having a bad time migrating events from pure GA to GTM.
This might be more confusing than multivariable calculus.
Thank you for this I would like to know how to track embed you tube videos with tag manger?

Good intro to Google Tag Manager.
Thank you, excellent explanation!
I'm so confused. What is the difference between Goals and Events?
Thank you, Great Intro
