Thanks Mr. Kayintveen!
As of now i just want to add google analytic conversion script on thankyou page so may i know the script for custom made platform?
Lastly what will be process in google tag manager for this conversion tracking?

Ok that wont be that easy, since you need to add custom e-commerce tracking code on each page, checkout process and such.
The advanced e-commerce tracking tracks more than just products and orders like the normal.
It also tracks behavior (adding things to the cart) but also things like credits and such. so this requires pretty much work.i would love to help out but its not as easy and a lot think, a real developer needs to pick this up.
I'm don't want to be to commercial here, but we can do it for you but have to checkout your platform first to make a estimation. of course a local dev. with analytics experience can do this aswell. -
Hello Kayintveen,
Thanks for support, we are working on
- Custom made platform

Hi Google E-commerce tracking is a lot more than just generating a tag and implementing it.
What kind of platform are you working on?- Magento
- Custom made?
- Wordpress/ woocommerce?
There are a lot of good solutions, but the hardest is it with a custom made store, then you have to add action to send order data towards Google Analytics to be tracked. Let me know what you are using and i'm sure im able to help you out here!

FYI - In my tag manager there is only one container in which 1) tag type is universal analytic and 2) Tracking id is UA......-1 3) Track type - page view and Firing Rules - All pages - {{url}} matches RegEx .*

If you scroll to the bottom of each page you should be able to find the directions translated for other languages.
Depending on what type of e-commerce platform you're on, you might be able to get the software to do some of this for you, like firing the on-page code.

Anyone heard of or used Hadoop software for SEO/website analytics?
Hey Moz Community, We received an interesting email this morning from a client's marketing manager asking if we knew about or have ever used "Hadoop software" because "[Business owner name] says it’s supposed to help us see how people use our website and more." I've never heard of this software and upon looking around on the web, it says it can do a lot, but my client is a small law firm who average 800-1,000 visitors per month, mainly from their 2 local office cities/markets. Anyone have any thoughts on this or ever use this software? Thanks in advance. Patrick

Universal Analytics & Google Tag Manager - Track URLs that include hashes
Does anyone have any experience tracking URLs that include hashes (#) using Universal Analytics and Google Tag Manager? Can it be done using GTM's container for UA, using the "more settings" options? Or building another tag to work with the GTM UA container? The fallback I'm considering is implementing the UA code in GTM for every page as Custom HTML with the "ga('send', 'pageview', location.pathname + location.search + location.hash);" solution, rather than GTM's specialized UA tag. I'm not yet sure what problems may arise from that, if any. Thanks in advance.

Setting up GA to report on sub domains
I've just launched a mobile version of my site at m.mydomain.com. I could do with a bit of help just checking I've inserted my Google Analytics code correctly though. I've chosen the sub domain option from settings and pasted the code into both the mobile and the non-mobile version of my sites. However, am I right in thinking that the setDomain attribute should point to two different domains for example: _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'm.mydomain.com']); (for the mobile site) and: _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'mydomain.com']); (for the standard site) Thanks very much for your help!

Tracking PDF Downloads in Google Analytics
Hi, I work on a site that allows users to download whitepapers after filling out a form. Once they do this they are redirected to a URL which is the PDF. We use Wordpress and these documents were uploaded to the media center. I've tried researching how to track these downloads in GA, since the code is not present on these pages, but have read a few different answers. Anyone have firsthand experience? Thanks!
