Help with E-commerce Event Tracking in GA4

I'm new to Google Analytics 4 and E-commerce websites, so configuring event tracking on my family's spirits business website has been a bit challenging. Due to alcohol sales laws, purchases are fulfilled by a third party called Barcart which operates its own e-commerce platform instead of WooCommerce or Shopify. In BarCart, I created buttons for each product that allow users to complete purchases on our website without leaving our domain. I also utilized BarCart's Google Analytics integration which made it seem like there would be no additional setup required on my end. However, purchase events are not being tracked in GA4.

The BarCart support team provided virtually no help when I asked them to help me troubleshoot this issue. I tried reaching out to some folks on Fiverr who claimed to have experience with custom e-commerce platforms, but they could not help out. I tried implementing the steps from a helpful video I found on YouTube, using a data layer in Google Tag Manager, and the trigger did not fire in Google Tag Assistant when I made a purchase. I am out of ideas.

If anyone has experience tracking e-commerce events in GA4 and wants to help, please send me a message! I can be more specific about the details in a private message than in this thread.

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Clients site has a weird issue with 302 redirects that I haven't seen before.

Site is in Drupal, hosted on Amazon CDN & Cloudflare. So here's a quick breakdown: The site itself works normally. It's a bit dated, but you can click on links and navigate around as you'd expect. Seeing no obvious issues, I run a Screaming Frog crawl to begin my audit. Only 5 pages were picked up by the crawl which was super weird, since all internal links are regular html and there shouldn't be any issues. So I go through the site and manually collect a bunch of URLs, which I submit to SF again as a list. Every single link bar the 5 originally crawled return a 302, with the 'redirect' pointing back to the home page. Except as I said, those pages don't browser redirect. Browser side, they work fine. I guess they redirect the crawl bot though, since the rest of the site is functionally invisible. Other tools I've looked at say that the pages return simultaneous 302 and 200s, which doesn't make too much sense. These 302s are also old enough ...
