<h2>Server-Side Google Ads Tracking for Shopify: Why It Matters</h2><p>Traditional client-side tracking on Shopify faces increasing limitations. Browser restrictions like Intelligent Tracking Prevention (ITP), widespread adblocker usage, and stricter cookie policies in Chrome and Safari reduce the effectiveness of Google Ads tracking. As a result, many e-commerce and SaaS businesses see fewer conversions reported and struggle to optimize their campaigns.</p><p>Server-side tracking is the modern answer. By routing key tracking data through your own cloud server before sending it to platforms like Google Ads, Facebook, or TikTok, you regain control over data accuracy and retention. This leads to more reliable campaign outcomes, even in a privacy-focused environment.</p><p>Using tools like Google Tag Manager (server-side container), Google Ads Enhanced Conversions, Facebook Conversions API, and infrastructure providers like Stape, server-side tracking allows your Shopify store to collect user events more reliably.
