Website Tracking & Analytics Audit

herbix.shop Tracking & SEO Audit — Grade F

A saved report based on tracking and pages observed during this scan.

Works, with issueshttps://www.herbix.shop/

Read the full audit summary

Your website's tracking setup shows some areas that need attention. Currently, Google Tag Manager (GTM) is not installed, and Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is not firing, which are critical for comprehensive tracking and insights. On the positive side, Shopify's native analytics, including Trekkie and the Web Pixels API, are functioning correctly, and the Meta Pixel is firing as expected. However, the absence of Google Consent Mode and GA4 could limit your ability to track user behavior effectively. There is no immediate risk of duplicate pixels, but the lack of GTM and GA4 should be addressed. Next, consider auditing a product page, cart, and checkout to ensure all necessary events are captured. Given these issues, I recommend connecting your store to PayHelm AI for a more detailed analysis and to help resolve these gaps.

Trekkie / Native Analytics

Firing (monorail beacon observed)

Web Pixels API

Active (Customer Events sandbox)

Shopify Analytics

Present

On Shopify, pixels can fire from three independent sources: GTM tags, hardcoded theme code, and Shopify Customer Events. Duplicate fires inflate conversion counts and corrupt ROAS — see the checks below for details.

No GTM container was detected on this page.

Advanced Tracking Features

Consent Mode v2Warning

No Google Consent Mode was detected. Since March 2024 Google requires Consent Mode v2 for sites with EEA/UK traffic running Google Ads — without it, conversion and remarketing data is lost for users who haven't consented.

Tag PerformanceInfo

No tag load timing was captured (the container may not have loaded, or timing was unavailable).

DOM ready 1.92sPage load 3.28s

Cross-domain TrackingInfo

No cross-domain (linker) tracking was detected. If your checkout or other steps live on a different domain, set up linker tracking so visits aren't split into separate sessions.

Enhanced ConversionsInfo

Google Ads Enhanced Conversions were not detected. They send hashed first-party data (email/phone) to recover conversions lost to cookie restrictions — worth enabling if you run Google Ads.

User-ID TrackingInfo

GA4 User-ID tracking was not detected. If you have logged-in users, setting a User-ID lets GA4 join their activity across devices and sessions.

Checkout & Purchase CoverageWarning

We couldn't reach the checkout or order-confirmation page during this audit, so purchase tracking is unverified. Purchase is the single most important event to get right — test it with a real or test order and confirm the 'purchase' event fires once on the thank-you page.

Checks

GTM containerWarning

No GTM container found.

No Google Tag Manager container was found on this page. If you rely on GTM for analytics and ads tags, nothing will fire.

GA4 firingInfo

No GA4 measurement detected.

No Google Analytics 4 tag was detected on this page.

Shopify platform detectedPass

Shop: 1238eb-2.myshopify.com

This is a Shopify store. Pixels can fire from three sources: GTM tags, hardcoded theme code, and Shopify Customer Events (Web Pixels API sandbox). All three are audited here.

Shopify native analytics (Trekkie)Pass

Trekkie beacon fired (monorail)

Shopify's built-in Trekkie analytics library is active and sending data to Shopify's own reporting.

Shopify Web Pixels API (Customer Events)Pass

Web Pixels API / Shopify.analytics detected — pixels run in a sandboxed iframe

Shopify's Web Pixels API is active. Pixels installed via Shopify Admin → Settings → Customer Events run in a sandboxed iframe, independently of GTM — they cannot interfere with each other, but duplicates are still possible if the same vendor is also in GTM or theme code.

Shopify platform detectedInfo

cdn.shopify.com / window.Shopify

This site runs on Shopify. Tracking setup and common pitfalls differ by platform, which is factored into this audit.

Funnel events are page-specific: purchase only fires on order confirmation, add_to_cart requires a user click. Events shown as are not observable on this page type — audit each page separately for full coverage.

Discovery

Product List / Collection Viewhigh

view_item_listMeta: ViewContentShopify: collection_viewed ✓

Not observed firing, but Shopify's native 'collection_viewed' event was found in the site's JavaScript — this maps to 'view_item_list'. It may route through Shopify Customer Events or Web Pixels rather than GTM. Not observed on this page. Set up 'view_item_list' on your collection/category/search pages for funnel visibility. On Shopify, events may fire via Customer Events (Shopify Web Pixels sandbox) and may not be visible in the dataLayer — verify in Shopify Admin → Settings → Customer Events.

Product Click from Listmedium

select_item

Not observed during this load — 'select_item' requires user interaction on collection/category pages. Verify by manually testing the action on that page. On Shopify, events may fire via Customer Events (Shopify Web Pixels sandbox) and may not be visible in the dataLayer — verify in Shopify Admin → Settings → Customer Events.
