# @next/next/next-script-for-ga

> Require `next/script` instead of `<script>` to load Google Analytics

A plain `<script>` for Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager competes with your own code while the page loads. The `Script` component from `next/script` loads it after the page is interactive.

The rule reports a `<script>` if:

- its `src` contains `www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js` or `www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js`
- the template literal in its `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` contains `www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js` or `www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js`
