Adjusted Bounce Rate

Google Analytics does not properly track some important engagement metrics like Avg Session Duration, Avg Session Duration, and Bounce Rate. This plugin uses a commonly-accepted JavaScript method of improving the accuracy of these stats. This plugin addresses the issues as identified by the Google Analytics team at: http://analytics.blogspot.com/2012/07/tracking-adjusted-bounce-rate-in-google.html Others have also blogged about their own solutions at: http://padicode.com/blog/analytics/the-real-bounce-rate/ http://briancray.com/posts/time-on-site-bounce-rate-get-the-real-numbers-in-google-analytics See http://grantnorwood.com/wordpress/plugins/adjusted-bounce-rate/ for more information about the plugin and the author, or visit the GitHub repo at https://github.com/grantnorwood/adjusted-bounce-rate to fork my code or submit an issue. Features Set the engagement tracking event interval. (Defaults to 10 secs.) Set the max engagement time, which allows you to customize when the session should be considered abandoned. (Defaults to 20 mins.) Set the minimum engagement time, which can be used to set an initial amount of time required to count the user has having engaged. (Defaults to 10 secs.) Customize the event Category, Action and Label names to be displayed in Google Analytics. Create goals in Google Analytics based on the time on page. (GA goals only support session duration by default!) Uses either the old pageTracker code, the newer asynchronous code, or the newest Universal Analytics code.

Machete

Machete is a simple suite of tools that solves common WordPress annoyances using as few resources as possible. Machete doesn’t cover every single use case, but there is a huge amount of sites that would require less plugins if they used Machete. All Machete tools have two things in common: they solve problems faced by many web developers and they do it using as few server resources as possible. So far, Machete includes the following tools: WordPress Optimization WordPress places a lot of code inside the tag just to keep backward compatibility or to enable optional features. You can disable most of it and save some time from each page request while making your installation safer. Cookies & GDPR Warning We know you hate cookie warning bars. Well, this is the least hateable cookie bar you’ll find. It is really light, doesn’t affect your PageSpeed score and plays well with static cache plugins. Analytics and custom code You don’t need a zillion plugins to perform easy tasks like inserting a verification meta tag (Google Search Console, Bing, Pinterest), a json-ld snippet or a custom stylesheet (Google Fonts, Print Styles, accessibility tweaks…). The Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager tracking codes are PageSpeed optimized, GPDR friendly. Maintenance mode The maintenance mode that ships with WordPress is just a basic lock-down that is activated whenever you do a major update. With machete Maintenance Mode you can hide your unfinished page from visitors and search engines, give your clients a secure temporary access and lock your site without affecting your SEO. Post & Page cloner Adds a “duplicate” link to post, page and most post types lists. Also adds “copy to new draft” function to the post editor. Social Sharing Buttons Social sharing done the Machete way. The icons are made as a custom webfont embedded in a minified CSS file that only weighs 5.8KB. The sharing actions use each platform’s native share URL. WooCommerce Utils WooCommerce was designed to work for every possible use case, but that often leads to unexpected behavior. These simple fixes can improve the WooCommerce user experience by making it behave as clients expect.
