Hi Kyle,

The University Libraries here at UNC-Chapel Hill are currently working with a consultant to set up Google Tag Manager.  We also had several GA accounts for our many websites.  Within GTM, we have one container/account for all the sites.  This way we can see the flow of traffic between our sites.  The consulting firm, SearchDiscovery out of Atlanta, have been wonderful to work with and have really helped us in setting this up.

We are just about to wrap up our work with the consultant.  Would be happy to discuss further if desired.

Lynn

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Implementing Google Tag Manager

Has anyone out there implemented Google Tag Manager?  I'd like to get it up and running for all of our library's web properties this summer, but I'm a bit uncertain how I should be structuring it.  The most immediate question is, "Do I need only 1 container, or do I need more than 1 container?"
Right now, we are tracking our main website, our library blog, LibGuides, ArchivesSpace, EDS, and several other things.  Most of these are set up as separate "properties" of one umbrella GA account for the library.  This existing structure leads me to believe that I want to configure Google Tag Manager with multiple containers: one container for the main library website, one container for our blog, one container for ArchivesSpace, etc.
Does that sound correct?  Is there anything else I should be mindful of as I setup GTM?

Regards,
Kyle
