Thankyou this video is lifesaver for SMEs like us, god bless you! Anyway for those of you who manage your own website with wordpress, there's one tips from me. I was stuck at the first 13.00 minutes tutorial at this video. First I cant find the plugin Google Tag Manager, turns out that the new plugin of Google Tag Manager for Wordpress has changed its name to GTM4. And second once I done the step on minute 12 to 13, my Google Analytics won't track any data. It's says I've to wait 10 minutes, but I've been waiting desperately for hours to wait my Google Analytics working, turns out that I have to ticked the container code toggle to on (while defaultly it's thick in off). It's indeed not on the video because maybe it's the new plugin interface update. Hope it help :)
Many thanks for the updated info
``turns out that I have to ticked the container code toggle to on`` where? In tag menager or plugin in wordpress?
As of today, 27 Nov 2022 Google Tag Manager for Wordpress is called GTM4WP
Knowing something and teaching others are two different things, the second one is much more complicated. You are one of the best teachers I found on CZcams.
Thank you so much Sujit
Definitely the best teacher. Having watch different videos this is the only one I understand!

What's up Luc; Thank you for the video (including your previous videos I watched). G4 was also new to me but thanks to your video, I am no longer confused and was able to set it up in a jiffy. You make complicated Google things easier for everyone to follow, understand, and implement. Unlike one of your British brother, your speech is normal and natural. You can have the best videos out there. But if no one can understand you nor comprehend because of your fast speech, then might as well not make videos at all. Yours are just right and very pleasant to watch and listen to. Thank you a million.
Thanks a lot Tom. Really appreciate your kind comment.
Amazing work as always Luc. Youâre one of the best Digital Marketing teachers on CZcams.
Wow, thanks! đ
Thank you Luc, your training is fantastic :)
The points are well structured and easy even I am newbie to this.
Love from Malaysia :)
Keep inspiring and sharing with us. Happy Marketing !
You're so welcome! Thanks a lot Nadia

Awesome video Luc.
Very well explained so easy to understand.
Glad to hear it! Thanks so much
Some of the CZcams videos I've watched show you how to set up GA4 without helping you understand how it works in the same video so I really appreciate this video and how easy it was to understand everything!
Many thanks Vanesse

Awesome, thank you!
Proper tutorial. Thank you very much.
You're welcome!
Hi Luc; Awesome đ& thank you for creating this Video Walk-through of GA4. I've been waiting for this and once again it's a brilliant, easy to follow tutorial.
I wish Google would give us a way to import our data from the old Universal Tracking to GA4 so we don't have to keep old profiles active.
Thanks Duan. Glad you like it. Since GA4 is so different and event based I guess it makes it impossible for Google to do any kind of import.
@@rankingacademy Impossible? Unlikely however terms, data types and value perhaps not there.
Very in-depth instructions. Keep up the good work please
Many thanks
thank you! very helpful and smart you are

Many thanks for sharing your tutorial video đ

Thank you ... your amazing
You are so welcome
I am loving this video! It has the clearest instruction on using GA4 I've found anywhere. I am confused though, because at 29:47 you talk about changing to "page path + query string and screen class." I'm not finding this option at all. The closest I have is "landing page + query string" when I click the "+" next to the dropdown. Help? Thank you SO much for all you do!
Oh'man, You are among one of my HOT FAVOURITE Teachers, I Love you man. I had learned many things from you, especially i still remember my first FB and Twitter page i made from your tutorial. You always provide the teachings in a very simple and easy way. love your teaching style. i again love the start of this video where you again make it easy for us by dividing the lecture in chapters. What a technique. Love you Bro. Do make such useful videos and spread knowledge. Keep it up, love your teaching style and accent. HatsOff to you man.
Dear Adnan. Thank you so much for your glowing comment. I really appreciate it đ. I'm very happy to know I was able to help you
thank you sir, You are one of the best teachers I found on CZcams
Glad you think so! Many thanks for watching
great in depth video. a vid on how to determine the cost of each lead is would be great. thanks
Thanks Ryan. I will add it to my list
This is a good and educating video, pls more of it. Thanks
Thank you, I will
Hi Luc, still watching this excellent presentation - excellent as always. But what I wondered was whether you open new Gmail accounts for each client or hold then under a "Super Admin" account - I'm wondering as clients may decide to transfer their account management to a new person or run themselves at some point. Many thanks, now back to your video.
Hi Andrew. I personally always either create a new account for new client or if they prefer, i can use their own details if they prefer. I always keep everything separate and make sure they are the owners of the listing, just in case they no longer require my services
thanks man you helped in this stuck software , appreciate it đđ
Glad to hear that Ahmed
Very clear stright explanations and demonstrations. washhands
Thank you so much Sacheen đ
Thank you, well done
Thanks for watching!
Thank you a lot my friend you help me out
No problem đ Thanks for watching Jay
Fantastic presentation. What about a case where you want to track multiple websites, android and ios platforms? Do you create different instances or have the option to manage all under one platform?
Thanks so much great video
You are so welcome!
Thank you for some amazing tuition.
Youâre very welcome
@@rankingacademy have you made a video that covers deleting events? I have modified a couple but they still appear much to my frustration. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for all i could learn since to you !! Now, Let's get to work for me ;)
Any time! Thanks for watching Maud
Great information and thanks
My pleasure. Thanks for watching Jim
Thanks!
OMG!! thanks so much Toni
Great tutorial!
Thank you!
Hi Luc, Its always pleasure watching your tutorials. Well i have a suggestion " Can you please make tutorials on SEMRUSH too. as i did not find any on your channel." As you explain things quite well so it will be great if you can make one on that too. Hope you will create one..
Hi Syed. Thank you very much. Although I used SEN RUSH a while ago it's unlikely I'll do a tutorial on it as I don't have access to it anymore.
Hi Luc, thank you so much for the tutorial. This definifitely helps alot!
I have a question on the minute 44:40 - where you're talking about the conversion tracking.
May I asked what is the reason you setup 2 matching conditions (Event_name, & Page_View & Page_Location, Thank_You) instead of just 1 (Page_Location, Thank_You)?
Since we are just tracking the 1 thank you page only right? Can't we just setup 1 matching condition?
Hope you could shed some lights on this.
Thank you once again for the great tutorial!
Thanks Alexander
If you want to track a specific page as a conversion, like your thank you page, you'll need to track that individual page as a unique event first (in this case, page view) then specify the page name (thank you)
Thanks for this Valueable info I really appreciate đđđđ
You are so welcome!
Thanks for this
My pleasure!
Awesome tutorial Luke. I love it.
Just have a question. Does the event tracking and conversions work exactly the same if I verify Google Analytics by pasting code in the header and body section instead of Google Tag Mananger?
Yes it does
Will the code appear on every page or does it need additional coding
Great job, I'll be back!!!
Great stuff. I look forward to it.
Thank you đ
You're welcome Michael đ
Thank you sooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!
You're very welcome
very good video. I can listen to your voice all day
What a sweet thing to say. Thanks Simon.
hi, thanks for positng..... how do you load the first visit , begin checkout and purchase into the conversions view in engagement?
Great tutorial man.
Many thanks
Question? With the ability to set up event conversions do you still need to use GTM to set up triggers for conversions? It seems like with GA4 you don't need GTM anymore. Great tutorial thanks for posting!
I prefer to use GTM so everything is under one roof and easily accessible.
Really helpful
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching
I found your channel very educational and worth subbing. thanks for the apploads ! a fellow creator
