Tracking & Attribution | GTM, GA4, Meta CAPI, Google Ads, Server-Side
When GA4, Google Ads, Meta, Shopify, and your CRM show different conversion numbers, you have a measurement problem before you have a marketing problem. I am a performance marketing engineer with 8+ years of experience. I help businesses and paid media agencies fix broken conversion tracking, attribution, analytics, server-side tracking, and privacy-aware measurement so marketing teams can make decisions from reliable data. I work at the intersection of website engineering and performance marketing measurement. My background in JavaScript, React, Next.js, ecommerce, APIs, and web analytics helps me trace data from the website and dataLayer through GTM, server-side GTM, GA4, Google Ads, Meta, CRM, and revenue reporting. CORE SERVICES ### Conversion Tracking * Google Tag Manager (GTM) and GA4 setup, audit, debugging, and event architecture * Google Ads conversion tracking and Enhanced Conversions * Meta Pixel and Meta Conversions API (CAPI) * Ecommerce events: view_item, add_to_cart, begin_checkout, purchase, lead, sign_up, custom conversions * Browser-side and server-side event reconciliation ### Server-Side Tracking * Server-side Google Tag Manager (sGTM) with Stape, Google Cloud. * Stape, custom domains, first-party tracking, event routing, validation, transformation, and enrichment * Custom sGTM tag templates and API integrations * Meta CAPI and Google Ads Enhanced Conversions with server-side data flows ### Attribution and Marketing Analytics * GA4 ecommerce and full-funnel measurement * Cross-domain and cross-platform attribution * Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, and paid media conversion data * CRM to ad-platform conversion tracking and offline conversion imports * Shopify revenue vs platform-reported revenue reconciliation * ROAS, CAC, conversion rate, revenue, and customer journey analysis ### Shopify and Ecommerce Tracking * Shopify and Shopify Plus * Custom dataLayer with Liquid and JavaScript * Shopify Customer Events and checkout extensibility * Theme, app, checkout, and deployment tracking fixes * Headless Shopify and Next.js/React event tracking ### Consent and Privacy-Aware Measurement * Google Consent Mode and consent-aware tracking * Consent Management Platforms (CMP) * Cookiebot, UserCentrics, CookieYes, OneTrust, and iubenda * Privacy-aware data collection and server-side event routing COMMON PROBLEMS I FIX - GA4 conversions do not match Shopify orders or CRM leads - Google Ads or Meta reports missing, duplicate, or incorrect conversions - Meta Event Match Quality is lower than expected despite CAPI - Purchase revenue or transaction IDs are wrong - Tracking breaks after Shopify theme, app, checkout, or website changes - Custom dataLayer or JavaScript tracking is difficult to debug - Consent settings reduce or distort measurable conversions - Ad platforms optimize toward incomplete or unreliable conversion signals - You need to reconcile advertising platform data with actual business revenue BEST FIT - Shopify and Shopify Plus brands running Google Ads, Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, or other paid acquisition - DTC and B2B ecommerce businesses with meaningful online lead or sales volume - Paid media and performance marketing agencies that need a technical tracking partner - Teams with an existing analytics setup that need an audit, repair, migration, or ongoing measurement support HOW I WORK 1. Audit the measurement architecture and conversion goals. 2. Trace important events from the website and dataLayer through GTM and server-side systems. 3. Compare GA4, ad platforms, Shopify, CRM, and revenue data. 4. Find missing events, duplicates, incorrect parameters, consent issues, attribution gaps, and implementation errors. 5. Fix the tracking architecture and validate the data flow. 6. Document the setup for ongoing maintenance. CRO AND EXPERIMENTATION Reliable measurement comes first. Once conversion data is trustworthy, I can also support: - Funnel and checkout analysis using GA4 and business conversion data - Hotjar and Microsoft Clarity analysis - A/B testing measurement and experiment instrumentation ONGOING TRACKING MONITORING Tracking can degrade silently after website deployments, Shopify changes, app updates, consent changes, or advertising API changes. For ongoing clients, I can monitor key conversion signals, investigate anomalies, validate important events, reconcile platform data against business data, and maintain a prioritized measurement backlog. WHY CLIENTS USE AN ENGINEER Many tracking problems are not solved by adding another standard GTM tag. Modern websites involve JavaScript applications, dynamic dataLayers, ecommerce platforms, consent states, APIs, server-side processing, ad platforms, and CRM systems. If your website, analytics, ad platforms, CRM, and actual business data do not agree, I can help find the gap and fix the measurement foundation.
