Avoiding broken conversions tags is the key to maximizing performance automation and its attainable only through Elevar’s Conversion Monitoring technology. We like to call it “Pingdom for conversion tags”.
The only automated monitoring solution in the world that is built entirely for conversion tracking on Shopify and the Google Tag Manager data layer.
Once configured you won’t need to worry about the silent revenue killer… broken conversion tags.
Broken tags, or undefined (i.e. inaccurate) variables, lead to:
❌ Underperforming remarketing campaigns
❌ Ineffective lookalike audiences
❌ Inaccurate data collection and reporting
❌ And even campaign shutdown
This can cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Avoid these issues and you can scale marketing campaigns with confidence.
Which leads to more revenue and growth for your business.
One of our customers, Rothy’s, was expanding marketing partners and campaigns frequently.
They were seeing explosive growth: 350% in 2018 with over $140 million in revenue.
And a pair were even spotted on Meghan Markle – the Dutchess of Sussex.
But with all of this growth they were experiencing broken tags that negatively impacted performance.
❌ Marketing platform’s algorithm (like FB) was missing data that is used to help optimize performance.
❌ Team members left with inadequate data to drive decisions.
So the Rothy’s team needed to invest in a solution to mitigate wasted time, ad spend, and opportunity cost.
It’s complicated ☹️.
Code deployments. Platform changes. Browser changes. Feature conflicts.
The list goes on.
And when you add the fact that every platform has unique requirements – this compounds the issue. Just look at their naming conventions:
So there is no universal process to follow. Each platform creates their own standards, and the process to implement and validate tag accuracy is highly manual.
This puts the burden and expense on you to implement, manage, and monitor.
Then something breaks, and the cycle repeats.
We’ve helped hundreds of thousands of GTM users through our free guides and are official Shopify Plus partners.
For conversions – we monitor API responses in our server-side integrations to track the % of successful conversions. For your data layer we look for missing/undefined data in your tags that trigger on user behavior and provide the tag, page, and device it happened on.
This is perfect for brands doing over $1 million in annual revenue that uses at least marketing channel (like Facebook) to advertise on.
For conversion channel accuracy, no. For data layer error monitoring, yes you do.
Yes! This is even more important for marketing agencies. Think of this monitoring as insurance for your performance campaigns. You more than anyone else knows the impact that broken tags can have on a campaign.
