Integrate Google Analytics with your HungryHungry Platform!
Google Analytics is a powerful, free web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic, user behaviour, and a wide range of valuable metrics. It enables you to understand better who is visiting your platform, how they found it, and how they interact with it.
By integrating Google Analytics with your online ordering platform, you're not only tracking visits to your platform but also understanding your customers' purchasing behaviours. You'll be able to see which items are popular, at what times orders peak, where your customers are located, and much more!
Google Tag Manager is a tag management system that allows you to set up and manage tags on your site without changing your website's code.
