Google Tag Manager
Guide to creating a tag and following Tilda updates using Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager (GTM) is a service from Google that allows you to add a GTM code snippet on your website and update the contents from the Tag Manager user interface. It means that you do not need to update code snippets manually for each page. You can add a custom code or the codes of web analytics services such as Google Analytics.
Important: If you have activated Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics, do not activate the counter in the Site Settings. Otherwise, the data will be collected twice.

Let's add the Google Analytics tag as an example.
Leave the Page View type of tracking. Select a settings variable in the "Google Analytics Settings" field.
Insert your Google Analytics ID (you can read more about it in Tilda Help Center or Google Help Center).
Save changes, then go to the Triggers settings and select "All Pages." Click on Create Tag.
You can either rename the tag or leave the name as it is.
Click on Publish in the top right corner of the screen to publish the changes.
A window will appear, where you can create a new version of the tag and publish the changes. After publication, Google Analytics will start tracking your website's visits. You can modify current tags or add new ones, for example, to track form submissions or clicks on external links.
