Tracking & analytics.

Server-side tracking that doesn’t vanish behind ad-blockers and cookie limits.

You see where orders actually come from, and with what value.

Sound familiar?

When you
need this.

  • Orders come in, but they aren’t reflected in Meta or GA4.
  • After a site update, the numbers vanished.
  • ROAS is calculated on the wrong value — or the value never arrives at all.
  • Due to iOS limits and ad-blockers, a large share of the signal is lost.
  • Product data doesn’t reach the catalog correctly, and dynamic ads don’t run the way they should.
01/ANALYTICS

Tracking &
analytics.

When an order really happens, it has to show in the numbers too.

After a site update, Purchases, PageViews and order values can go missing or arrive wrong. We don’t guess where the fault is — we measure it on real orders.

We set up server-side tracking on your own domain and put GA4, Meta and LinkedIn conversions back to work correctly. Before and after, the picture is clear: what was lost, what got fixed and whether the order value lands where it should.

STEP 01
Audit
We review which events actually fire today and where the signal gets lost along the way — HAR walk, Events Manager and a check on real orders.
STEP 02
Plan
Tracking plan, events, data layer.
STEP 03
Setup
sGTM, CAPI, GA4 e-commerce.
STEP 04
Validation
We verify on real orders, we monitor EMQ.

FAQ

Frequent
questions.

01
Do you need to change the site's code for this?
Usually not. We work mainly in GTM and on the server side.

If something on the site does need changing, we agree it separately first — usually a small, specific change.
02
What about cookie consent?
We only pass on the data the user has consented to.

Our job is to fix the case where consented events drop out of measurement due to a technical fault.
03
Whose accounts does the system live on?
All configurations stay on your accounts and your domain.

If the collaboration ends, the whole system stays with you — access, configuration and documentation.
04
How quickly do the numbers improve?
Setup and validation usually take 1–2 weeks. After that, ad algorithms need a little time to re-learn from the new, cleaner signal — usually a couple of weeks.
05
Why don't Meta and GA4 numbers match?
Because they measure different things: Meta counts conversions by its own attribution model and window, GA4 by another — and both lose a share of events to ad-blockers, iOS limits and consent choices. Some gap is normal; a large or growing gap usually means technical data loss. The only honest baseline is real orders in your store admin.
06
Why doesn't GA4 or Meta show all my purchases?
The usual causes: ad-blockers and iOS privacy limits block the browser-side pixel; checkout runs on an external domain and the session breaks; a consent setup drops permitted events along with denied ones; or tracking broke during a site update. Industry measurements put browser-only tracking losses at 20–40% of conversions. Quick check: compare a week of orders in your store admin against GA4 and Meta — a gap over ~10% usually means something is broken.
07
What is server-side tracking and when do you need it?
Server-side tracking sends conversion data from your own domain straight to Meta's and Google's servers instead of the user's browser — so the signal doesn't vanish behind ad-blockers or cookie limits. You need it when you spend on ads and the numbers don't add up: Meta and GA4 disagree, ROAS is computed on the wrong value, or purchases don't show at all. The result has to be measurable: one store's Meta Purchase match quality 6.3 → 9.2, measured on real orders.
