As third-party cookies are phased out and browsers limit client-side tracking, server-side tracking becomes crucial to maintaining data quality. Without server-side tracking, businesses risk losing conversions, getting incorrect ROAS and making decisions based on incomplete data. Server-side tracking gives you a more stable setup where your data is not dependent on browser limitations.

Frequently asked questions about server-side tracking

What is server-side tracking?

Server-side tracking is a method of collecting data where information about the user's actions is sent via a server instead of directly from the browser to analytics and ad platforms.

Why do companies use server-side tracking?

Companies use server-side tracking to reduce data loss, improve data quality and reduce reliance on cookies, adblockers and browser restrictions.

How does server-side tracking work in practice?

When a user takes an action, data is first sent to a server. The server then processes and forwards the data to relevant platforms such as analytics and ad systems.

What are the benefits of server-side tracking?

The most common benefits are:

  • More stable and complete data
  • Better attribution
  • Faster websites
  • Increased data protection
  • Greater control over data flow

How to choose the best server-side tracking solution?

The choice depends on factors such as technical complexity, scalability, data protection, integrations and support needs. Many organisations choose off-the-shelf solutions rather than building their own.

What is the difference between client-side and server-side tracking?

Client-side tracking happens in the user's browser and is vulnerable to blocking. Server-side tracking moves data collection away from the browser and makes tracking more robust.

How do you implement server-side tracking?

Implementation typically requires:

  1. Setting up a server or server container
  2. Configuration of tracking events
  3. Integration with marketing platforms
  4. Testing and validating data

  • SaaS: Finished solution with low complexity
