FAQ

Google Analytics 4 questions

Should I use GA4 or my tracker?

Both. Your tracker is best for campaign decisions; GA4 shows on-site behaviour. I make sure they tell the same story.

Can you fix an existing GA4 property?

Yes. I audit events and settings, then fix what matters most first.

Do you set up GA4 through GTM?

Usually yes, as it keeps tags organised and easy to change.
