CONVERSION TRACKING SETUP

Stop flying blind. Track every conversion that matters

We set up Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics 4, event tracking, and Google Ads conversion actions — including enhanced conversions and consent mode — so every ad dollar is measured and your campaigns optimise on real data.

The problem

If you can’t measure it, you’re guessing

You see clicks and you see spend — but without proper conversion tracking you have no idea which keywords, ads, or campaigns actually make money. Worse, the ad algorithms optimise on whatever data they get, so broken or incomplete tracking quietly trains your campaigns to chase the wrong outcomes.

Most accounts have tracking that’s missing events, double-counting, or leaking data to privacy changes. The fix is a clean, tested tag stack that feeds every platform complete, accurate signals.

What we do

GTM container setup

One clean Google Tag Manager container installed site-wide — every tag, trigger, and variable managed in one place, no developer needed after.

GA4 & event tracking

GA4 property, data streams, enhanced measurement, and custom events marked as key events — with conversion values so you can measure real ROAS.

Google Ads conversions

Conversion actions wired up correctly — native tags, GA4 imports, enhanced conversions with hashed first-party data, and offline conversion imports.

Privacy & consent

Consent Mode v2 and server-side options so tracking stays accurate and compliant as cookies and browser rules tighten.

Why tracking is the foundation, not an afterthought

Every paid channel is only as smart as the data you feed it.

How we do it

A clean, tested tracking stack

01

Audit & map

We review your current tracking, map the events that matter to your business, and plan the tag structure.

02

Build in GTM

GA4, Google Ads conversions, and any other tags go into one container — with triggers and variables set up properly.

03

Test & verify

Preview mode and Tag Assistant confirm every tag fires once, on the right action, with the right value — no double-counting.

04

Enhance & hand off

Enhanced conversions, consent mode, and offline imports go live. You get documentation and can iterate without touching code.

Tools we use

Google Tag Manager · Google Analytics 4 · Google Ads · Enhanced Conversions · Consent Mode v2 · Tag Assistant · Looker Studio

Timeline: a standard GTM + GA4 + Google Ads conversion setup is usually live within 2–4 days; enhanced conversions and server-side options add a few days depending on your platform. Downtime on your site is minimal — often none.

Why BetterSell

Tracking done right the first time

Tested, not assumed. Every tag is verified in preview mode before it goes live — no silent failures or double-counts.

One container, every platform. GA4, Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn — all managed from one place, no code edits.

Privacy-ready. Consent Mode v2 and server-side options keep data accurate as cookies disappear.

You stay in control. You get documentation and the ability to change tracking yourself, without a developer.

Clean tracking is what makes ad spend pay

Conversion tracking isn’t the goal — it’s what makes every other channel work. Google Ads and Meta both optimise on the conversions they can see, so the moment your tracking is complete, your ad budget starts finding the customers that actually convert. That’s where the return shows up.

Recent results

What this looks like in practice

+22% ROAS

We recently rebuilt tracking for a client whose Google Ads had been optimising on a mistagged event. Once real purchases were tracked, Smart Bidding corrected itself and ROAS climbed within weeks.

0 double-counts

We recently audited a store double-counting purchases across GA4 and Google Ads. Cleaning up the container gave them numbers they could finally trust for budget decisions.

Full funnel

We recently set up event tracking for a lead-gen client from scratch — form starts, submissions, and calls — so they could finally see which campaigns produced qualified leads, not just clicks.
