Your Google Tag Manager account should represent the topmost level of organization for your company. Within, create one Tag Manager (web) container for each of your company’s websites and apps.
Google Tag Manager is a tag management system that allows you to update tags on your website quickly and easily. Tag Manager installation for web requires a small piece of code that you add to your web pages. This code enables Tag Manager to fire tags by inserting tags into web pages.
