Are you using Google analytics or Google tag manager or Adwords remarketing or all of them on your blog/Website? Even if you are not using all these yet, I highly recommend you to start using it. It was 2 years back when I started using Google tag manager to manage all the tags for every blog in my blog network.
Today, I was implementing Google Adwords remarketing tags & needed a way to verify if I have implemented all the tags correctly or not. This is when Adwords help page redirected me to Tag assistant chrome addon which I believe is useful for all digital marketers & bloggers.
This is a nifty chrome addon which would help you with following:
- Troubleshoot installation of Google Analytics.
- Troubleshoot installation of Google tag manager.
- Verify installation of various Google tags on your website or any other webpage on web.
- Shows which all tags are present on a webpage
- Shows any error & cause of the error ( very useful for debugging)
Here is a video that shows how this chrome addon works & I suggest you to watch it before you install this chrome addon.
You can download the tag assistant Chrome addon from here. Along with this, if you have not implemented Google tag manager on your blog, you should do that too. Instead of using a separate plugin or manually adding Google analytics, Facebook remarketing tags on your blog, you should rather use Google tag manager to manage all of it from one place. I have written a complete guide along with recommended free WordPress plugins to help you get started with this:
Once you are done configuring Google tag manager {GTM} that usually takes about 5 minutes, you should check out the below video to learn about adding Facebook remarketing pixel on your website using GTM. If it’s new thing for you, don’t worry as this video is created for anyone with basic or intermediate skills.
Tasks to perform today:
- Configure Google tag manager for your blog/website
- Configure Google Analytics using Google tag manager
- Create Facebook pixel & add pixel code on your blog using Google tag manager
I know today you have few more tasks than usual, but once you start doing it, you would realize it’s so easy to do. Nonetheless, adding Facebook pixel today will help you to level up your digital marketing game in coming days. If you are using Chrome browser, here are few more add-ons which you would love to try out:
