As someone who has wrestle with GA and GTM regularly, I think it's fair to say that the author (Simo Ahava[1]) is the preeminent authority on how they work, and his blog is generally more useful than the official documentation Google provides.

- mywittyname 6y agoYeah, parent comment probably doesn't realize who Simo is. It's like calling out John Carmack for being naive about OpenGL.
- z3rgl1ng 6y ago2nd, Simo knows what he’s talking about.
- t0mas88 6y agoIn that case it's not nativity and sounds more like deliberately muddying the water on Google's practices while he knows about the audience features. That's worse in my opinion.
- shostack 6y agoAs someone who has setup and managed countless GA accounts for his career, it at least gave me a good chuckle. As others have noted, Simo is the go-to resource for anything technical and nuanced with GA and GTM. When I'm troubleshooting some issue with them, I know if I see his site pop up at the top that he's either solved the problem, or confirmed it is a much bigger issue that is going to ruin my day.
