Universal Analytics (UA) is sunsetting and the whole world is going crazy about it. Businesses are disoriented and agencies are competing to offer a new range of solutions and services around Google Analytics 4 (GA4).

UA to GA4 Migration is a goldmine of opportunity for agencies that can migrate tags accurately.

Since businesses need help with hundreds of their UA tags.

‍

But businesses don’t trust agencies. This is evident from questions like:

• Do you have skilled resources?
• What process do you follow for speedy execution of tags?
• How would you ensure error-free migration of tags?

‍

And how can your agency win the trust of clients as a tag-migration expert? 

Read on… 

‍

‍

Why aren’t businesses trusting your agency?

1) Inaccurate tag-migration

However skilled a developer might be, human errors can still slip in.

This results in your agency’s increased TAT and ultimately loss of credibility.

2) Complex Structure

Compared to UA, GA4 is structured differently. Event-based modeling of GA4 has replaced session-based modeling of UA. Hit types like page-view, social, and e-commerce will now be recorded as events. 

In UA, Category, Action, and Label were used as filters to track complex events.

Whereas in GA4, these have been replaced with parameters.

‍

3) Time-consuming

Due to its complex structure, migrating UA tags to GA4 requires considerable amount of time. And as we are approaching the sunset of UA, businesses demand speedy execution.

‍

How to win your client’s trust with accurate tag-migration?

‍

To accurately migrate tags from UA to GA4, agencies need to automate the tag migration process. This would reduce the cost and development time.

‍

But UA is sunsetting soon. So, how can you automate the process in such a short period of time?

‍

Relax! We’ve got you covered.

How Tagmate Works?

For easier migration, tags are divided into Standard, Advanced and Miscellaneous by Tagmate on the basis of their complexity.

‍

Below are some examples.

• Standard Tracking Tags: Generic tags such as Click, Page views, Page loading, Page visibility, Internet speed, 404 error, Ad blocker, Incognito mode detection, etc.
• Advanced Tracking Tags: Industry specific tags such as View Cart, Add to Cart, Wishlist, and Checkout Process for Ecommerce.
• Miscellaneous Tracking Tags: All other tags which are not available in the above two categories.

After selecting Standard Tracking Tag, a list of already installed UA Property tags will appear which will show the status as :

• Migrated
• Pending

‍

Find your Enquiry Form Tag. Here we have named it tvc_Enquiry_Form_Submit.

Validate details such as Configuration Tag, Event Parameter, and Value.

Update any detail, if needed.
