Google Tag Manager
-
Has anyone used Google Tag Manager and do you feel it is worth it?
-
I'm lucky, my business partner is a developer and he is fantastic with code.
Hence why I have such a good content manager system, especially for SEO purposes.
I'm not a fan of WordPress or Drupal so Google's Tag Manager will come in handy if and when I have to deal with a website using those systems again.

Hi Christina,
When I compare it with generic CMSs, like WordPress and Drupal, the advantage that Tag Manager gives is the way it streamlines all the tags. When dealing with multiple scripts, I find it very convenient. Secondly, you get the scripts of all the clients from one account.
I believe, it has been setup for organizations, where marketers are different from developers. So, with Google Tag Manager, marketers will not have to contact developers or site administrators for adding scripts.

Thanks Mayank
I've had a good look at it today and it does the same as our content manager, but it will be handy to use on any client who does not use our cms.

Hi Christina,
Have been using Google Tag Manager since its launch. It is completely focused on making marketers's tasks free from the involvement of developers. It achieves the objective to a great extent.
I like it for the following reasons:
1. Once you have added Tag Manager script to the site, you do not need to go again to the HTML source for adding a script. It's pretty smooth at that function
2. It's a long term approach and can prove a great time saver for teams working on active campaigns.
3. Account management is easier - more like Google Analytics. You can handle scripts for different sites or campaign from a single platform

How does Google handle fractions in titles?
Which is better practice, using 1/2" or ½"? The keyword research suggests people search for "1 2" with the space being the "/". How does Google handle fractions? Would ½ be the same as 1/2?

Is it advisable to use only one H2 tag? The template designs for some reason is ended up with multiple H2 tags, I realise if any think it's that each one is that are important and it is all relative. Just trying to assess if it's worth the time and effort to rehash the template. Has anyone done any testing or got any experience? Thanks

Should I use **tags or h1/h2 tags for article titles on my homepage**
I recently had an seo consultant recommend using tags instead of h1/h2 tags for article titles on the homepage of my news website and category landing pages. I've only seen this done a handful of times on news/editorial websites. For example: http://www.muscleandfitness.com/ Can anyone weigh in on this?

Should I prevent Google from indexing blog tag and category pages?
I am working on a website that has a regularly updated Wordpress blog and am unsure whether or not the category and tag pages should be indexable. The blog posts are often outranked by the tag and category pages and they are ultimately leaving me with a duplicate content issue. With this in mind, I assumed that the best thing to do would be to remove the tag and category pages from the index, but after speaking to someone else about the issue, I am no longer sure. I have tried researching online, but there isn't anything that provided any further information. Please can anyone with any experience of dealing with issues like this or with any knowledge of the topic help me to resolve this annoying issue. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Paul

Why should your title and H1 tag be different?
Is it dangerous to have your H1 tag and your title the exact same thing? My thought was that it's not be the best use of space, but that it couldn't cause harm. What do you think?
