Auto event tracking in Google Tag Manager to trigger goals

|
By Dean Cruddace
| artemisinternetmarketing.com
A very common issue with a lot of sites was that to be able to track a successful form submission we would recommend a unique URL following the form submit. Many Content Management Systems whether they are bespoke or off the shelf sometimes forget that bit and it is a PITA to get set up, costly or you wait an age. Google Tag Manager addresses this issue with ease thanks to a number of event listeners, not just for forms.
