Mastering Server Side Tracking: The Ultimate Guide for 2024

Server side tracking has become an essential aspect of data collection in the digital age. Unlike client side tracking, which relies on tags and pixels embedded in a website's code, server side tracking involves sending data from these tags to a web server. This method offers several advantages, including improved reliability, control, accuracy, and application and device performance.
A client-side tracking website uses a container on the page to transfer measurement data to multiple third-party tracking platforms. This container operates on the user’s browser and has a direct connection to your tracking tools’ mother server. Server-side tracking bridges the gap between the two by allowing you to develop your own tracking server. Google Tag Manager server-side tagging is hosted on the servers (Like: Google Cloud Platform, Stape.io, or your own server) and functions as a middleman between your client-side tracking and marketing vendors. Data is delivered from the browser to the GTM server-side instance and then forwarded to your tracking tools. This allows you to control data from being sent to your tracking tools and save data resources, resulting in a better user experience. In this blog, I will walk you through the process of configuring Google Tag Manager server-side tagging.
