Thanks for reaching out @jarmos. I checked your site both manually and using the tagassistant.google.com service. From doing so I can see that site visits are recording for a Google Analytics with a measurement ID of G-X0N****SQZ. This isn’t printed in a sites source code, as Site Kit uses the new Google Tag on your site, and within this tag your Google Analytics property is included. This is why you won’t see it if searching your sites source code, but I can confirm that the tag is firing. You’ll find more on how Site Kit uses the Google tag to place an Analytics snippet by visiting the related guide on the Site Kit website.
One of them is correct (the one from Site Kit), but the other one is incorrect and is actively sending data, which is causing tracking issues. I have checked with google analytics realtime data and its also not showing anything.
From what I can see your Analytics snippet is firing. With regards your checks when using the Google Analytics real time reporting tool, do you recall if you were logged out of your site when visiting your site and checking your own site visits? I ask as the default behavior of the Site Kit placed Google Analytics snippet (via a Google tag) is to not include logged in traffic.
If you wish to share your Site Health information I can also confirm all is set up as it should. Do let me know if you have any questions with the above. Thank you.

Hello
I have shared my site health information the link you have given to me. I was using with incognito chrome for testing realtime report and also using my phone to test different internet ip’s. But also i dont understand why google site kit generates some random G-****** code for page source. But this is isnt that important. What is important that after about 14 december 2024( i think this was the time when i installed google site kit) i suddenly lost my average click per day to about avg 2 clicks a day( this is impossible because the sales i am making there is no chance that i have only average 2 visist per day to my website). Also my website host showing montly 500+ visits and also jetpack shows more then 500 visits monthly( this is after 14 december stats).
What is funny that after about 14 december when analytics went low, then after that only show ga4 visitors from US. Problably its bots and crawlers but my clients are all from Estonia. buts its showing 0 visits from Estonia. So something is wrong but all connections shows like everything is green and works.
Thanks for sharing the additional information @jarmos. I took at the Site Health information you kindly shred and inspected your site. From doing so I can confirm that Google Analytics is working as expected.
I did also notice that you have consent mode enabled within Site Kit, which can impact reporting. This means that visitors to your your site from the EEA region, the UK and Switzerland will not be tracked in Google Analytics until they explicitly grant consent via a consent management plugin, which it looks like you have active. This could explain the lower number of traffic from Estonia. Note that if you don’t have a consent management plugin configured correctly you could loose all traffic from these regions, as users are not able to grant consent. I also noticed that some of the optimizations on your site are impacting the consent mode code printed to your site (as evident from reviewing your sites source code – which differs from that expected).
I suggest you review your consent mode and plugin when performing some checks, maybe even temporarily disabling content mode and your consent management plugin when testing using the Google Analytics real time reporting tool. I can confirm that Site Kit has placed the snippet correctly (using a Google tag) and traffic is reporting based on my site visit (checked manually and with the tagassistant.google.com service).
What you also can do regarding your loss in traffic, is to reach out to the product experts at the Google Analytics Help Center, as they may be able to assist you with any queries regarding possible changes at Analytics level, or more specific details with tagassistant.google.com or real time reporting tool.
Also my website host showing montly 500+ visits and also jetpack shows more then 500 visits monthly( this is after 14 december stats).
Note also that JetPack uses their own reporting system, so it’s not uncommon for there to be differences in different analytics tools for sites.
Let me know if you have any questions with the above. Thank you.
As we didn’t receive a response I’ll mark this as resolved. Feel free to open a new support topic if you continue to encounter issues, or reopen this topic and we’d be happy to assist.
