Client-side tracking relies on browser-based scripts like Facebook Pixel or Google Analytics. Since it operates within the user's browser, it is vulnerable to ad blockers, browser restrictions, and user actions—often leading to incomplete or inaccurate tracking data.
With server-side tracking, data is securely collected on your server and sent directly to platforms like Facebook and Google Analytics—maximising tracking accuracy, improving ad performance, and ensuring full privacy compliance.

Getting it wrong doesn't just mean bad data — it can break your marketing. Here's why professionals are worth it.
A single misstep can send wrong values to GA4 or Meta — killing attribution, budgets, and trust.
Without event IDs and proper config, events fire twice — inflating results and misleading platforms.
Pros know what truly matters: purchases, leads, scrolls, add-to-cart — not every click under the sun.
GCLID, FBC, FBP, UTM — if lost between client & server, you lose attribution accuracy completely.
Pros use debug tools, test environments, and real browser sessions to ensure clean, valid tracking.
Professionals know how to respect user consent, maintain cookie lifespans, and align with privacy laws (like GDPR/CCPA) — all while still getting the data you need.
Meta, GA4, TikTok, LinkedIn — each platform has its own quirks. Pros tailor event formats, API calls, and parameters to ensure accurate, platform-specific tracking.
Professionals align events with your funnel — not generic templates. B2B ≠ D2C ≠ SaaS.
