Helpful video, I'm glad to notice that it seems I got everything covered about this topic. Didn't know the EC Extension though, I'll test it. Thank you so much!
Everything is clear. Brief and clear. No water. Thank you)
Thank goodness for your information, sir! Very helpful. I remain unclear as to why Google has made it so complicated to simply track basic interactions/conversions? They have become quite obtuse w.r.t. their tooling in my humble opinion. Lots of unnecessary complexity.
Crisp, smart way of explaining, necessary and sufficient information. That was helpful. Thank you.
Clear and understandable, I wish there was more information like this.
Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for sharing and for the accuracy of the information you provide.
Interesting.
EC assist is really useful, thanks for sharing !
Very helpful, I could eventually get it
Thank you so much for this
Great video! Very helpful... Thank you!
Thanks, very helpful !
Helpful
Very helpfull but I would have prefered that "Google Tag Manager was not already installed on my website" as this is one of the the reasons I am watching the video. Now I must search another video to add GTM and then come back to this one to continue.
Thanks for another great video :-)
wao. great invension
nice. thank you
Hey Julius, thanks as always! What would you say about the need to now load the Google Ads Tag, like AW-1111111, in GTM alongside the GA4 Tag? I raised this topic in your community on FB, and most people are saying it’s now mandatory unless you link Google Ads and GA4 directly.
I don't use it. Conversion linker and the conversion tag is enough (at least right now)
@@AnalyticsMania Thanks! I Also think same
Thanks heaps
Thanks again for this well explained video!
My team and I encountered an issue related to conversion value adjustment by uploading:
We use the Conversions tab to upload spreadsheets daily to adjust conversion values. Recently, we changed the name of a conversion goal (from sales_lead_qualified to qualify_lead). Since then, past conversions are no longer recognized, and we get an error: "This conversion does not exist."
Do you know how to adjust values for past conversions after renaming a conversion goal? Have you encountered this before?
Thanks so much for your help!
Best,
Romain
This is a very helpful video. Thank you for taking the time to create it and share it with us.
EC assist additional thanks. I was searching how to check my enhanced converstions settings
hey! can you please provide the troubleshooting guide if we don't see the tag manager option?
Bro! you are the coolest. I have a question what is the purpose of Google Floodlight, is this somehow different to track?
Thank you very much for your valuable video, professor. Is there one specifically for shopping conversions, or will a new one be coming out? I'm setting up the conversions, but I'm making a mistake at some point. I'm eagerly awaiting your video.
Hello Julius Sir, I don't see any conversion labels in my Ad Manager. You said that some users don't see it, please provide a troubleshooting video link.
So good, thank you professor. I'm a Google Ads specialist in Brazil, and have the target public segmentation as my differenciator. Would you have an opportunity for my in the US?
Thank you very much.
Great Video Julius. Would you be open to making one on the tags "still running" issue? Having trouble currently tracking my Google Ads conversions with them.

Random and complicated tracking question. I have a campaign for a client tracking sign-ups on their website. There is also a plugin on their website for an external job hosting site. I have that external site in my GTM container. Essentially I want to see if anyone who comes through my paid campaign to the website, goes to the external site and fills out a form there. I have those external events set up in GA4 through GTM which I have imported into Google ads. Will those form fills that happen externally after someone leaves my site register in google ads? Or will the session not carry over? Thank you !
Good Video, I have a question, what is the 「Google Tag 」mean, in the 5:01 , in the Google Ads Part ？
We already use 「Google Ads Remarketing」, what is that Tag ？
How to setup facebook pixel and track standards events through gtm if i am using a shopify store . Thanks in advance 🙏❤️
Great video! I'm european but I can not find the link for consent mode. Do you video for this as well?
My paid GTm course for beginners contains the consent mode lessons
Where do I find the column on google analytics? I only find the source and medium in the traffic acquisition screen
what about for a conversion event for purchases if you're in e-commerce?
Would be perfect to have an example indeed !
please set all video chronologically or step up setup from beginning to end
My paid courses are for that. Plus, they contain much more
Hey @AnalyticsMania
the old UI somehow changed - not for my old account but for newly created ones,
Now when I need to set up a conversion I need to connect my google tag somehow via analytics first or the conversion will stay inactive. But as you said I also prefer direct tracking without the Central Tag connection to GA4.
Can you help here? Maybe make a new video for the new UI?
Or should I add the central google tag directly to GTM?
I don't have the new UI
@@AnalyticsMania maybe you can try to create a new ads account and make a new tutorial as probably sooner or later this will be outdated. Really would appreciate it.
in just 4-5 days you got me from having no idea how to use GA4 to intermediate in GTM and GA4 obviously 18h days but yeah.. hah! obviously got an IT background so i had that advantage as well
how do you import goals now with the new UI?

anyone, please share the link to troubleshooting problems I can't see the conversation label any help me
4:38 I don't see the option to use google tag manager. What might be the issue?
did u solved out?
How would you deal with Purchase Google Ads tag if GTM says it's Still running and it doesn't work or writes any data in Google Ads?

What if we dont have access to developers and we need to create DLV email/phone for User provided data?
Then Custom JS is the way
You hire a dev or face the music
“Use google tag manager” has disappeared, any solution for this pls
A quick google search would show this

Guys dont share Personal Information with Google or Ads directly like that... You will be suspended, all data needs to be hashed with SHA-256 before sending, then youll be ok
Check the network request. The data is already hashed there. The tag does the hashing.
@@AnalyticsMania Oh really? Thats awesome I'll have to check if thats true I will correct myself if I remember to do so
@@AnalyticsMania I Thoroughly tested hashing now. The Pixel tag correctly Hashes the data, however Google Ads Tag does NOT. I checked this by writing a function that returns the clear Name for example but if not present outputs a Constant SHA256 hash, empty Forms work correctly as expected (Constant Hash shows up on Form send) however If the Form is being filled out and the Clear Name is sent google does not recognize it because it NEEDS tobe hashed before.
GOOGLE IS A JOKE!

Clear and understandable, I wish there was more information like this.
