Server-Side Tracking Setup (sGTM)
I move tracking from the browser to a server: data goes through your website’s subdomain, less of it is lost to ad blockers and browser restrictions, and you control exactly what is sent to Google, Meta and other platforms.
Who it’s for
Every lost conversion costs money
The more conversions Google Ads and Meta see, the better campaigns learn.
IT, B2B, international markets
Requests to your own subdomain are blocked less often than direct requests to Google and Meta.
GDPR and personal data
On the server you can strip unnecessary data before it reaches ad platforms.

How the work goes
From $250
Server-side tracking setup starts at $250. The price depends on the number of platforms (GA4, Google Ads, Meta, TikTok), events and the state of your current tracking.
Server container hosting is paid separately under the Stape or Google Cloud plan. For smaller sites the free Stape plan is often enough.
This website itself runs on sGTM: GA4 is sent through a server container on an ads-expert.online subdomain.
If you only need basic analytics, see GA4 and GTM setup.
