Adjusted Bounce Rate vs Globe Visitors Counter

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.

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.
