Dynamic Site Tag & Track Method Strategy

In order to obtain the most value out of your website tagging strategy with Resonate, we recommend that you create a Dynamic Site Tag. Placing a Dynamic Site Tag on your website will not only help you gain a good understanding about the people visiting your website, but it will also allow you to sub-segment your site visitors by the content they engage with or the site actions they take. At which point, you will then be able to build audiences in the Resonate Ignite platform based on those site events and learn deeper insights on specific site engagers. Details on how to create this tag will be covered in the Create a Dynamic Site Tag section.

Our Dynamic JavaScript Site Tag allows you to place one tag broadly across your site, and then our Track Method snippet will allow you to further categorize your website to acquire in depth analysis in Resonate by:

• Capturing the visitation to sections and pages that reflect your site map(Tier1 Navigation, Landing Pages, etc.)
• Capturing other user actions or site events like button clicks, add to cart, purchases, form submissions, etc.
