Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager

Description

Deploy Google Analytics on your website without having to edit code and without tracking your own visits. You can exclude any logged in user from this and enable tracking solely for them. You can also ignore a device by ticking a box which sets a session cookie.

You can also enter your Google Tag Manager ID and disable tracking via GTM.

We would love to hear your feedback. It helps us improve and expand the plugin according to your needs.

If you have any questions or feature requests, feel free to contact us via support@webkinder.ch.

Reviews

I’ve been looking for non-intrusive Google Tag plugin and after a few unsuccessful iterations with other, higher ranked in WP directory plugins, found this one. This plugin does exactly what it should: installs google tags on your WP website. That’s it. Nothing else. The rest is managed via Google Tags directly. Thanks to the developers!
