What does a web analytics agency do for a company selling in Europe?
A web analytics agency makes the numbers from your European markets trustworthy: one GA4 property and one Google Tag Manager container in your company's name, e-commerce events for the whole purchase path, a consent banner that decides what is collected before tags fire, and reports that show each country on its own. Visitors who decline tracking are only partly visible in GA4, so we show you how much of your European traffic you can see before anyone reads a drop in the numbers as a drop in demand. We work from Kraków, in the EU time zone, and in English.
GA4 agency or GA4 consultant: which one do I need?
A GA4 consultant usually advises and leaves the work to your team, while a GA4 agency also does it: the audit, the implementation, the documentation and, if you want it, monitoring afterwards. Choose a Google Analytics consultant when you have developers who can implement and need a second opinion on the plan. Choose an agency when nobody in the company can own tracking from end to end. We are an agency and we run the work from the audit to the report, with the accounts registered to your company.
What does a Google Analytics integration involve?
It means connecting the store, which sends events for the whole purchase path, Google Tag Manager, GA4, Google Ads and the Meta pixel so that all of them count the same orders. GA4 and Google Ads are linked inside Google, while Meta receives the data through its pixel and the Conversions API. If you decide on it, we also connect a data warehouse with product cost and returns. We start with an audit of what is connected today, then set up the integrations one by one and test that each order is counted once. The result is documented, so the next person who touches the setup knows what flows where.
What is web analytics?
It is collecting and reading data on what users do on your website and how much of it stays in the company. It is not the same as installing a counter: web analytics starts where the number of orders in the report matches the number of parcels that left the warehouse, and the report shows margin, not just revenue.
How much does an analytics implementation cost?
Setting up GA4 and Google Tag Manager starts from €250 net. A PrestaShop store has its own item in our price list, quoted individually, because PrestaShop needs its own modules and a different amount of work. Server-side tracking and the margin report (Profit Analytics) are each priced as a one-off implementation plus a monthly fee, and we quote them after the audit, together with the cost of Google Cloud.
Which store platforms do you implement tracking on?
We specialise in PrestaShop and implement tracking on it most often, together with Premium GTM, Pixel Plus with Conversions API and the product feed. Beyond that we work with WordPress and WooCommerce, Shoper, Shopify, IdoSell, custom-built stores and static websites. PrestaShop has a separate item in the price list, because it needs its own modules and a different amount of work than the other systems.
Is Google Analytics 4 alone enough?
For watching traffic, yes. It stops being enough when you decide on the ad budget based on it: some events never arrive because of ad blockers and browser restrictions, and every panel counts conversions with its own attribution model. The differences then reach tens of per cent.
What does server-side tracking give you?
It recovers events the browser loses and sends conversions to the ad platforms straight from the server. Campaigns then learn from a fuller picture, and the gap between the panel and sales in the store narrows. It is not for getting around user consent, and we do not set it up that way.
Is it GDPR compliant?
Yes, when implemented correctly. Consent still decides what we collect, and Google Consent Mode passes that information on to the ad platforms. On top of that we limit the collection of personal data where it is not needed, and we leave documentation of what we measure and for what purpose.
How long does the implementation take and what is on our side?
The environment setup usually closes within two to three weeks, server-side tracking within three to four. On your side there are access rights and decisions on definitions: what we count as an order and how we treat returns. We take care of the rest.
