Tags – commonly known as tracking pixels – are becoming the data collection mechanism of choice, leaving marketers reliant on them to gather the right data about visitor activity and take action to improve their experience. But the process of deploying and managing vendor tags can be a nightmare for marketers, due to the technical nature associated with tagging, heavy costs, impact on site performance, and the dependence of IT resources to make changes. Tealium puts digital marketers in control of their online solutions, making it easy to add, edit, or remove any vendor without requesting assistance from IT. In addition, Tealium provides a rich source of all of an organization’s digital data to help marketers improve the effectiveness of their customer acquisition campaigns.

FAQ

What data is currently included in the data object?

• Site name
• Site description
• Post ID
• Post date
• Post categories
• Post tags
• All post meta data, including custom fields
• Search terms
• Number of search results

What are the Tealium tag location options?

• After opening body tag (recommended)
• Header – Before closing head tag
• Footer – Before closing body tag
• Immediately after the opening head tag

Is WooCommerce supported?

WooCommerce stores product information as meta data, so by default your data object will be rich with data on product pages.

Version 1.3 adds basic support for cart contents information in the data object.

Can I add to the data layer dynamically using PHP code?

This can be achieved calling the ‘tealium_addToDataObject’ action from your themes functions.php file or a separate plugin.

For more information see the action examples on GitHub.

Can I automatically switch between Tealium environments on my dev/live website?

This can be achieved by conditionally modifying the Tealium tag code by calling the ‘tealium_tagCode’ action from your themes functions.php file or a separate plugin.

For more information see the action examples on GitHub.
