## Description

Google Analytics can be operated in several modes:

 * Plain simple Google Analytics – usage of the site is tracked
 * Google Analytics with demographics tracking
 * Google Analytics with enhanced link attribution
 * Google Analytics with demographics and link attribution
 * Google Analytics with UserID session tracking
 * Google Analytics with Remarketing/Display Advertising
 * Universal Analytics (new version)
 * Universal Analytics with demographics tracking
 * Universal Analytics with enhanced link attribution
 * Universal Analytics with UserID session tracking
 * Universal Anlaytics with Remarketing/Display Advertising
 * Universal Analytics with ECommerce transaction tracking
 * Universal Analytics with demographics, link attribution, UserID session and ECommerce
   transaction tracking

To swap between these usually requires editing the Google JavaScript and ensuring
you have everything correct, often requiring technical skills.

This plugin avoids the need to edit JavaScript by doing it all for you and thereby
avoiding costly mistakes.
 Plus it makes it easy to see exactly what you have enabled
per site.

This plugin also:

 * Provides a fix for bounce tracking, in that an event gets generated after a configurable
   timeout once they have scrolled down the page. This way if the user is actually
   reading a page it won’t be counted as a bounce.
 * Allows you to turn off Google Analytics tracking for specific pages if required(
   i.e. privacy or performance).
 * Allows you to turn off Google Analytics for a set of request IP’s or subnets (
   i.e. your office), saves having to fiddle with IP settings in GA itself.
 * Allows you to turn off tracking by role (by default Administrator).
 * Add on JavaScript from other tracking services under the same display controls.
 * Support for event tracking

Easy to use, and does exactly what it is suppose to do. It also has additional customization
features I have not found in other similar plugins. I have been using this specific
one for the past 1+ years without any troubles. Thanks 🙂
