If you are looking to track various traffic metrics in your surveys the easiest way to do so is to use Alchemer's built-in tool to implement Google Analytics in your surveys. If, however, you are already using Google Tag Manager to track other web traffic, you'll probably prefer to roll tracking of surveys into your implementation of Google Tag Manager. In this tutorial we'll cover the steps to install Google Tag Manager in your Alchemer surveys.
Create a Container for Alchemer in your Google Tag Manager Account
- Log in to your Google Tag Manager account or set one up here: https://www.google.com/analytics/tag-manager/
- Create a new container for www.alchemer.com by selecting Create Container from the menu on the top right.
- Enter www.alchemer.com in the Container name field.
- Select Web for Where to Use Container and click Create.
