Start with a strong tagging infrastructure

Tags are the foundation of privacy-centric measurement. Sitewide tagging, using the Google tag or Google Tag Manager, allows you to make the most of the data customers share with you by placing first-party cookies on your website to measure conversions.

Benefits of sitewide tagging

  • Demystifying automation
    Without proactive measures, regulatory and technology changes could affect your ability to reach relevant audiences, measure marketing performance and win customer trust.
  • Maintain measurement accuracy
    Ensure more accurate conversion tracking by specifying which interactions should be counted as Google Ads conversions.
  • Streamline integration
    Experience faster, easier integration across other Google products, like Google Analytics.

How sitewide tagging works

  • An illustration of a cursor attaching a tag to a web page.

    Sitewide tags, such as the Google tag, place first-party cookies on your website.
  • An illustrated Google tag surrounded by customer profile icons.

    Customers interact with your ad and the sitewide tag stores first-party cookies with info about the interaction.
  • An illustrated mobile phone shows a completed list of steps from a customer conversion.

    When the customer converts on your website, the tag reads this cookie and records the conversion in your Google Ads account.
