Hello,
I have set up google analytics on my site (https://buildyard.ai). But I don't get any traffic data on my google analytics dashboard. I have set up the FE correctly and it also has the correct VITE env var VITE_GA_MEASUREMENT_ID on the front end. Any tips ?
Thanks
Jim

check the network tab when you visit your site to see if you have any extensions blocking it (like an Adblocker)

If Google Analytics is installed but shows no traffic, the problem is usually one of a few common issues. Here’s a checklist Jim can work through:
- Verify the Measurement ID
- Make sure the VITE_GA_MEASUREMENT_ID matches the GA4 Measurement ID exactly (it should look like G-XXXXXXXXXX).
- Confirm the production deployment is using the correct environment variable, not just local development.
- Check that the Analytics script is actually loaded
- Open the deployed site.
- Open Developer Tools → Network and filter for gtag or collect.
- You should see requests to googletagmanager.com and google-analytics.com.
- If they’re missing, the tracking code isn’t being initialized.
- Inspect the page source
- Verify the generated HTML contains the Google Analytics script:
