The video was very helpful. I was stuck while creating a "new TAG", I didn't see "GA4 Configuration" in the tag types, I could only see Google Tag and Event I guess. After much digging and rewatching the video to see if I missed any step, I realised, through a google support article, that "GA4 Configuration" has been renamed to "Google Tag"

I hope this helps anyone who got confused like me.

Google changes their interfaces so often that a video from *8 months ago* has confusing inaccuracies. Well done.

A very detailed tutorial series, finally I was able to find the tag code to be installed on the blogspot template correctly.

Thank you😄

WOW! At 33 seconds in the first video you said you would cover how to set up the account and a property. You even mentioned in this video. However, you start this video informing that you already created the account and the property. Nice....

Hi Matt, thank you for starting this series. I am having an issue with filtering the internal traffic. I have followed the I instructions and have checked multiple times but it is just not working. I was wondering if I can get some help with that. Please let me know if the Google team wants me to share some snapshots of the issue.

Thank you I was able to put the G4 Tag in my header. I do have a question though, Since I just put in my New G4 Id today, did it actually override the old tag?
