Supercharge Your GTM Setup with gtag
Wondering if you can make the most of gtag and set up Google Tag Manager (GTM) simultaneously? Heck yeah, you can!
Setting up GTM with gtag is a breeze. Just swap out that initial GA_TRACKING_ID with your GTM container ID, and you’re good to go. You can still keep the universal analytics tag running smoothly within GTM, all while having gtag in the mix.
How to use Global Site Tag
To use gtag.js to track your site, install the plugin. Replace GA_TRACKING_ID with the tracking ID of the Google Analytics property you want to send data to.
Why use Global Site Tag
Global Site Tag streamlines tracking across all Google products, including their measurement, conversion tracking, and remarketing products. Global Site Tag is the new replacement for old Google Analytics script.
Difference between Universal Analytics & Global Site Tag
There are few differences you need to know before thinking of migrating to Global Site Tag.
Install:
Universal Analytics(analytics.js) is only used for installing Google Analytics, and global tag can be used to install multiple tools like, GA and GTM.
Tracking:
Universal Analytics uses trackers(ga(‘create’, ‘G-XXXXX-Y’, ‘auto’);) to send pageviews to Google Analytics while gtag send pageviews to GA property identified by the GA_Tracking_ID(gtag(‘config’,’GA_Tracking_ID’)).
Use:
Global Site Tag can be used for conversion tracking and remarketing while universal analytics can’t.
