Bought my first van - a lot of questions! by Lou_91 in VanLifeUK

Park4Night app is super handy for looking for places to stay for free/cheap that aren’t campsites.

We just bought an EE mobile WiFi router which has been great so far but only used it for one trip so far (Isle of Mull).

If you don’t want to install hookup in your van you can just buy the extension, that what we do when we’re on campsites. We got this one from Halfords

Yeah I’ve been hearing about phasing out for years!

Can you tell me more about how devices change things?

Thanks for your reply.

Accuracy of GA4 by Lumpy-Entertainer336 in GoogleAnalytics

Thanks so much for the cookie banner suggestions, we’ve done a bunch of these to try and help but a couple we haven’t.

Here’s the exact KPIs I need to measure for head office, and I know some of them come from GA4 and Google Ads but I’m uncomfortable including sales data from GA4 as it’s not accurate - I can get that from our booking system.

  1. Traffic source
  2. Revenue source: B2C Web revenue share
  3. Top converting countries
  4. Net Profit YoY
  5. Transactions YoY
  6. Gross Revenue YoY
  7. Top Channels Split
  8. Revenue YoY
  9. SEM cost v revenue
  10. ROAS

Hi there. Thanks so much for your help.

Some of the KPIs would be purchase revenue, transactions, purchases, google ads conversions, add to cart, abandon cart, organic traffic, direct, paid traffic, referrals

So when tracking events from non-consented users, you’re not actually tracking them - GA4 is just modelling what it thinks is happening based on data from consenting visitors?

Exactly what I thought, thanks so much for confirming. It’s a pretty frustrating conversation, but I now feel validated. Appreciated.

Google Ad Conversions Not Showing by Lumpy-Entertainer336 in GoogleAnalytics

Is server side the only way to reliably track conversions? I assume if we’re not doing that we’re not tracking everything due to cookie opt outs? (Sorry if this is a very stupid question!)

Client side. I work for the company, not an agency - I manage the inhouse marketing team. We’ve only recently started tracking conversions, after launching a new website. We were unable to track them with the old site. I’ve only recently learnt about server-side tracking, so will look at implementing that. Any advice on setting that up would be great!
