<head> Example
<!-- Google Tag Manager -->
<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start':
new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src=
'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-ABC1234');</script>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager -->
<body> Example

<noscript><iframe src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-ABC1234 "
height="0" width="0" style="display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe></noscript>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager (noscript) -->
Google Ads (formerly Adwords) & Conversion Tracking
We recommend setting up Google Ad Conversions to run through Google Tag Manager and then installing Google Tag Manager under the Analytics Setup section. This will give you greater flexibility to run the Ad Conversion code on specific pages compared to manually installing the Google Ad Conversion code on each page.

Meta (Facebook) Pixel
A Meta Pixel allows you to track the performance of any ads you run on Facebook's platform. If you are running Facebook ads and need to install the Meta Pixel they provided, please install it within the Other Tracking Pixels box.
Other Tracking Codes
If you have a domain verification tag (such as Google or Pinterest), or any other tracking codes, please install it within the Other Tracking Pixels box.
