    52 Once you've installed the TDI plug-in and created a TDI account, there are really three steps to going live.
     47Once you've installed the TMS plug-in and created an account, there are really three steps to going live.

    54 1. **Create tags in TDI:** Whenever you implement a tag, your vendor will provide a snippet of JavaScript that you insert into a page or template. Just paste this into TDI and save it. Alternately, we have a growing library of partner tags where you can select the tag, provide your account information, and the tag will automatically be configured for you without having to touch the actual tag code.

    56 2. **Create a container in TDI and associate tags:** A container acts as an air traffic controller for tags. It determines which tags should be included on your site. Creating the most basic of containers involves naming the container, specifying the domain it will be serving, picking the tags you want to be served and activating the container.

    60 From this point, all administration of your tags and containers occurs within the TDI environment, which automatically updates your WordPress site in the background. If you want to deploy a new tag, just add it to TDI, associate it with a container and it goes live within having to do anything in WordPress.

    62 You can certainly get more sophisticated about this. TDI lets users create rules to govern when tags fire, which helps better target tags and improve user experience.

    68 Mezzobit offers the Internet's first and only socially responsible data platform.
    69 
    70 Data is the lubrication that greases the Internet, but a growing distrust regarding data collection threatens the entire digital ecosystem.
    71 
    72 Consumers worry about what data is collected and what's done with it. They are suspicious their privacy is not respected. This lessens brand loyalty and increases opt-out rates.
    73 
    74 But companies that engage data collectors also feel somewhat powerless. They're not exactly sure what data flows from their websites and mobile apps, let alone what's done with it.
    75 
    76 Just saying "Do no evil" to customers and consumers without proof isn't good enough. Mezzobit's approach is verifiably accountable and transparent in a way unmatched by anyone.
    77 
    78 The solution is Mezzobit's partnership with DataNeutrality.org, an independent non-profit to be controlled by digital brands, consumer advocates, and data collectors.
    79 
    80 DataNeutrality will set data rules with greater respect for enterprises and consumers. Mezzobit will then follow the rules, with DataNeutrality having complete access to Mezzobit to continuously audit compliance. Finally, DataNeutrality will send report cards of our privacy performance to all customers.

    84 It's up to you. There are advantages in having all your tags managed in one location. But for certain tag providers, their plug-ins provide additional functionality that may be useful to have in the WordPress administrative console.
