To implement Google Tag Manager for a new website, you would start by setting up an account and container, then adding the GTM code snippets to the site's code. After that, you can configure tags for tracking user interactions, establish triggers for those tags, and test everything to ensure proper data collection before publishing.

Event tracking is crucial in web analytics as it allows you to capture specific interactions users have with your site that aren’t tracked by default, such as button clicks or video views. This data helps in understanding user behavior and optimizing the website to enhance user experience and conversion rates.

To ensure data accuracy in analytics, I follow best practices including thorough testing of tracking setups, regular audits of data collection methods, and maintaining up-to-date documentation of all tracking implementations to ensure consistency and reliability.

I prioritize insights from data by aligning them with business objectives and key performance indicators. I focus on metrics that provide the most actionable data for driving strategic decisions and enhancing user experience, often collaborating with stakeholders to refine these priorities.

One challenging project involved integrating multiple data sources into a single dashboard. I faced obstacles in data alignment and quality, but through a collaborative approach, careful planning, and iterative testing, we successfully created a comprehensive view of user behavior that led to improved business decisions.

I keep up with trends in web analytics by following industry blogs, attending conferences and webinars, and participating in community discussions. Continuous learning is key, so I frequently explore new tools and methodologies that can enhance analytics strategies.

I utilize various visualization tools such as Google Data Studio, Tableau, and custom dashboards to display analytics data effectively. The techniques involve creating clear, concise visual representations that emphasize key insights and trends to facilitate intuitive understanding.

When faced with discrepancies in analytics data, I first conduct a thorough review of the data sources and tracking setups to identify the root causes. This often involves cross-referencing different data sets, consulting with stakeholders, and making necessary adjustments to rectify the discrepancies.

My experience with SQL in web analytics has involved writing complex queries to extract, aggregate, and analyze data sets. I use SQL to manipulate and transform data for detailed reporting and insight generation, allowing for more nuanced analysis beyond standard analytics tools.

Stakeholder communication is vital in my analytics processes as it ensures alignment on objectives and expectations. By regularly updating and collaborating with stakeholders, I can provide relevant insights tailored to their needs, leading to more effective decision-making and strategy development.
