Collecting data during purchase events and strategic user goals on your website is of paramount importance to digital marketers. Ensuring that all data collection tags are in place when these events occur is a must. Here are three ways Tag Inspector can help:
Scanner
Scanner is the core feature of Tag Inspector; it crawls or “spiders” all pages of your URL to detect tags. It cannot on its own perform actions like “add to cart,” input usernames/passwords/e-mail, add quantities, or enter a credit card for a test transaction. Tag Inspector would not be able to detect tags inside checkout funnels that require the input of some form of data to progress through the funnel.
Tag Explorer
Tag Explorer is a Chrome extension or “plugin” developed by the technical team at Tag Inspector. When this extension is enabled on your Chrome browser, it detects all the tags loading on the page you are currently browsing. Tag Explorer can be used while you browse through a checkout funnel, making it a quick way to spot check your tags in the funnel (albeit manually). Learn more about Tag Explorer here.
