Server-Side Tagging vs Manual Tagging
Developers should use Server-Side Tagging when building high-traffic websites or applications that require robust analytics, marketing tracking, and compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR or CCPA meets developers should learn and use manual tagging when building machine learning models that require high-quality, domain-specific training data, such as in natural language processing (nlp) for sentiment analysis or computer vision for object detection. Here's our take.
Server-Side Tagging
Developers should use Server-Side Tagging when building high-traffic websites or applications that require robust analytics, marketing tracking, and compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR or CCPA
Server-Side Tagging
Nice PickDevelopers should use Server-Side Tagging when building high-traffic websites or applications that require robust analytics, marketing tracking, and compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR or CCPA
Pros
- +It's particularly valuable for reducing client-side bloat, preventing ad-blocker interference, and enabling more secure data handling by minimizing exposure of sensitive information to the browser
- +Related to: google-tag-manager, web-analytics
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Manual Tagging
Developers should learn and use manual tagging when building machine learning models that require high-quality, domain-specific training data, such as in natural language processing (NLP) for sentiment analysis or computer vision for object detection
Pros
- +It is essential in scenarios where automated tagging methods are unreliable, such as with ambiguous or complex data, or when establishing ground truth for benchmarking algorithms
- +Related to: machine-learning, data-preprocessing
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Server-Side Tagging if: You want it's particularly valuable for reducing client-side bloat, preventing ad-blocker interference, and enabling more secure data handling by minimizing exposure of sensitive information to the browser and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Manual Tagging if: You prioritize it is essential in scenarios where automated tagging methods are unreliable, such as with ambiguous or complex data, or when establishing ground truth for benchmarking algorithms over what Server-Side Tagging offers.
Developers should use Server-Side Tagging when building high-traffic websites or applications that require robust analytics, marketing tracking, and compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR or CCPA
