Thanks Mr. Kayintveen!
As of now i just want to add google analytic conversion script on thankyou page so may i know the script for custom made platform?
Lastly what will be process in google tag manager for this conversion tracking?

Ok that wont be that easy, since you need to add custom e-commerce tracking code on each page, checkout process and such.
The advanced e-commerce tracking tracks more than just products and orders like the normal.
It also tracks behavior (adding things to the cart) but also things like credits and such. so this requires pretty much work.i would love to help out but its not as easy and a lot think, a real developer needs to pick this up.
I'm don't want to be to commercial here, but we can do it for you but have to checkout your platform first to make a estimation. of course a local dev. with analytics experience can do this aswell. -
Hello Kayintveen,
Thanks for support, we are working on
- Custom made platform

Hi Google E-commerce tracking is a lot more than just generating a tag and implementing it.
What kind of platform are you working on?- Magento
- Custom made?
- Wordpress/ woocommerce?
There are a lot of good solutions, but the hardest is it with a custom made store, then you have to add action to send order data towards Google Analytics to be tracked. Let me know what you are using and i'm sure im able to help you out here!

FYI - In my tag manager there is only one container in which 1) tag type is universal analytic and 2) Tracking id is UA......-1 3) Track type - page view and Firing Rules - All pages - {{url}} matches RegEx .*

If you scroll to the bottom of each page you should be able to find the directions translated for other languages.
Depending on what type of e-commerce platform you're on, you might be able to get the software to do some of this for you, like firing the on-page code.

Tracking Pop Up Form Submission Events with GTM
Hello, I'm currently tracking contact form submissions any time a user clicks 'Submit' on a pop-up form. Once the form is submitted, the URL of the page remains the same (there is no /thank-you page or such like), hence needing to fire the Event based on a click. Problem is, even if the form is not actually submitted and a user just clicks the Submit button without filling in the fields, the Event will still fire. I know there is a way to ensure the Event ONLY fires when the form is actually submitted for real, but I don't know how to implement that in GTM. Any help most appreciated 🙂 Cheers, Gill.

How is this site being tracked in GA?
Hi, Bit of an unusual one this, so please bear with me. This site http://www.hayesandhurst.com/ is being tracked in Google Analytics but we're unsure as to how. To the best of our knowledge we haven't inserted the tracking ID into the theme options or the tracking code into the source - and yet it appears to be tracking successfully! I did send some instructions to the client to set up the Analytics account in their name - I fear they have added the code somewhere to the site, but we cannot see where! Perhaps via Google tag Manager?? As I say, an odd one this, but if anyone can shed any light on this mystery i'd be hugely grateful. The tracking ID is UA-64505394-1 for the record. Regards,

Custom URL tracking for paid online ads
Hello! Our marketing team is testing paid online ad networks (banner ads, mobile ads and video ads) this year in addition to some traditional television advertising. We would like to track how effective these various ads are, and I'm wondering the best method to do so. In all cases, we're not setting up new pages for these ads to go to. They will simply go to an existing page on our site. For tracking purposes, here's what I'm wondering... If we set up custom URLs on our site (e.g. www.example.com/sports) then have the visitor immediately redirected to the intended page on our site (typically our home page), will Google Analytics show that custom URL in any report to see how much traffic flowed through it? Or will it not register because a page doesn't really exist for that URL? The biggest issue is with the banner ad network, which targets around ten categories of sites (sports, moms, entertainment, etc.). I know I'll be able to find the network listed as a referrer to see the total traffic the network sent us, but we would like to know specifically which category drove the visits. As such, would a custom URL for each category work, or will Google Analytics not pick it up because it's not hitting an actual page? For television ads, we are showing our URL as www.example.com/tv, which would then redirect to the intended landing page. In this case, it's a little more challenging because I won't have the referrer traffic to go by. But same problem... will GA recognize that URL and show it in Behavior > Site Content > All Pages? I hope this makes sense. If not please let me know and I'll try to explain. Thanks in advance,

Does analytics track an order two times by refresh on the confirmation-page?
Hi there,
Reporting & Analytics | | Webdannmark
I have a quick question. Does Google analytics track an order two times, if the user buys a product, see the confirmation page and then click refresh/click or back and forward again?
The order/tracking data must be the same, but i guess the tracking code runs for every refresh and therefore tracks the order two times in Analytics or does analytics know that it is the same order? Someone that can clearify this?Thanks! Regards

Use Google Spreadsheet for Top Keywords Report
I've been using the super-awesome Google doc described here http://www.seomoz.org/blog/custom-reporting-using-google-analytics-and-google-docs for all kinds of reporting and I've customized it quite a bit. But I can't figure out how to feed text-based fields from GA into this doc. For example, can I make it so this doc spits out top 10 keywords? Thanks!

Tracking Email campaign
I generated the following URL to track visits from newsletter. http://www.example.com/ ?utm_source=newsletter1&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newletter2109 Do i have to use this link in our email ? My question is it looks ugly. How do i shorten this ? Using bit.ly ? But isn't it true that URL shortening services such as bitly, as some can increase the likelihood of email being marked as spam
