Google Analytics Dashboard + Real Time Stats

Our goal at MonsterInsights is to make Google Analytics easy and accessible for everyone.

We understand that Google Analytics has a steep learning curve which often prevents small business owners from making informed decisions to grow their business.

That's why MonsterInsights comes with a built-in Google Analytics Dashboard for your WordPress site, so you can see all the useful information about your visitors right inside your WordPress dashboard without needing to login somewhere else.

We have even created customized reports to help you filter through the noise and see the stats that really matter!

  • Audience Report helps you get to know your visitors in a whole new way. It shows you detailed insights like which country your visitors are coming from, what are they most interested in, which device are they using, their age, gender, and a whole lot more. You can use this demographics report and audience clues to tweak your website design and content accordingly.

  • Publishers Report helps you understand which pages your visitors are arriving, and which pages they are leaving from. Designed specifically for blogs and other resource sites, this powerful report will show you which outbound links are getting clicked so you can easily optimize for higher conversions.

  • Behavior Report shows you exactly how people find your website, which keywords did they search for, who referred them, what did they click on your site, and more. You can use these useful stats to identify low-hanging fruits, new partnership opportunities, and promotional areas to focus on.

  • Content Report shows you stats on exactly which content gets the most visits, so you can stop guessing and start creating content that gets more traffic and conversion.

  • Ecommerce Report shows you important store stats like total revenue, conversion rate, average order value, top referral sources, and more (all in one place).

  • Forms Report shows you conversion stats for various contact forms and lead forms on your website, so you can improve the conversions to grow your business.

  • Search Console Report shows you exactly how well your website is ranking in Google, so you can further optimize your SEO to grow your organic traffic.

  • Custom Dimensions Report helps you dig deeper by showing you useful stats like who are your most popular authors, what are the best publication times, which are your most popular categories or tags, how well are your Yoast focus keywords and SEO score performing, and more.

  • Site Speed Report makes it easy to track pagespeed insights and loading times for your website and get the information you need to improve user experience and your SEO rankings.

Our custom Google Analytics Dashboard reports are based on over 12+ years of online business experience. We built MonsterInsights to be the Google Analytics plugin that we wish we had.

We currently use MonsterInsights on all our portfolio companies which include both media sites generating tens of millions of pageviews and eCommerce sites generating millions in sales.

That's why we can confidently say that MonsterInsights is the ultimate Google Analytics Shortcut for seeing the stats that matter and making data-driven decisions to grow your business.

I love being able to drill down into the analytics via the reporting feature. I have the PRO version and it makes a big difference what you can analyze. I'm glad that I can integrate with Pretty Links too!

Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce Tracking Made Easy

Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce tracking is a powerful feature that lets you track user behavior across your online store starting from product views to checkout page to thank you page and beyond.

With MonsterInsights' easy WooCommerce integration, you can setup WooCommerce analytics with literally 1-click.

Once you have enabled WooCommerce tracking, MonsterInsights will show you all important WooCommerce metrics in a single dashboard including WooCommerce conversion rate, top products in your WooCommerce store, total transactions, total revenue, average order value, top referral sources, and more.

Our WooCommerce analytics report also includes other detailed WooCommerce event tracking data like total add to carts, total removed from cart, time to purchase, and sessions to purchase.

For those who want to go beyond our WooCommerce stats dashboard, you can easily open up the Google Analytics dashboard to combine WooCommerce data with other secondary dimensions and filters to find exactly what you're looking for.

Aside from WooCommerce Google Analytics integration, MonsterInsights' eCommerce addon also offers seamless integration for the Easy Digital Downloads plugin.

Our Easy Digital Downloads Google Analytics integration allows you to set up Enhanced Ecommerce Tracking on your store with just 1-click.

Our eCommerce tracking works with other popular ecommerce plugins such as MemberPress, GiveWP, LifterLMS, Restrict Content Pro, and more.

Each integration works automatically with Google Analytics Universal (GA3) and Google Analytics 4 (GA4), so that your site can be prepared for future changes.

Simply put, MonsterInsights' Enhanced Ecommerce for WordPress feature is by far the easiest and most powerful in the market.

Google Analytics + GDPR Compliance

MonsterInsights helps make Google Analytics GDPR compliance easier for business owners.

Our EU compliance addon allows you to:

  • Anonymize IP in Google Analytics
  • Disable the Demographics and Interest Reports for Remarketing and Advertising
  • Disable UserID and author name tracking
  • Enable the ga() compatibility mode
  • Integrate with Cookie Notice and CookieBot plugins to collect user consent before tracking
  • Integrate with Google AMP Consent Box before enable tracking
  • Integrate with Google Analytics's Chrome browser opt-out extension and built-in cookie opt-out system
  • Offer Easy Opt Out link for Google Analytics tracking

While no single plugin can guarantee 100% GDPR compliance in WordPress, MonsterInsights goes to great length in helping business owners with GDPR compliance.

For more details, see: GDPR and MonsterInsights - Everything You Need to Know.

Universal Tracking + Google Analytics for AMP and Instant Articles

MonsterInsights uses Google Analytics universal tracking, so you can track your users across devices and platforms.

Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) is a project by Google that helps you speed up your website. However if you don't set it up properly, Google AMP can cause you to lose your website analytics. Our Google Analytics AMP integration allows you to have accurate tracking on all AMP enabled pages. It works seamlessly with AMP for WordPress plugin.

We also offer 1-click Google Analytics integration with Facebook Instant Articles.

At MonsterInsights, we always stay ahead of the curve in helping you integrate WordPress with the latest Google Analytics tracking features.

Analytics for PROs! This plugin brings it all, great features and helpful info to easily see what you are doing.
Frank van der Sluijs

Google Affiliate Link Tracking

Our affiliate link tracking makes it easy for bloggers and affiliate marketers to track their affiliate links with Google Analytics.

MonsterInsights uses event tracking for all WordPress outbound link tracking which is far more accurate than any built-in WordPress analytics solution.

Unlike other WordPress analytics plugin, our Google Analytics affiliate link tracking does NOT slow down your website because all events are recorded via JavaScript and sent straight to your account.

Most other WordPress stats plugin track data on your WordPress hosting server which slows down your website and does not scale for larger websites.

Since our affiliate link tracking uses Google Analytics' powerful servers, we can skip WordPress entirely.

MonsterInsights' affiliate link tracking feature works with all WordPress affiliate link management plugins including Pretty Links, Thirsty Affiliates, and others.

Custom Dimensions Tracking, Custom Google Analytics Event Tracking, and More

Our Google Analytics event tracking feature for WordPress doesn't just stop at affiliate link tracking.

You can use MonsterInsights custom Google analytics event tracking feature to easily add outbound-link tracking, file downloads tracking, call-to-action button tracking, hashmark tracking, telephone link tracking, and more.

Our powerful Forms Tracking addon uses Google Analytics custom event tracking feature to enable form analytics in WordPress. With just 1-click, you can enable form conversion tracking for your contact forms, lead generation forms, registration forms, surveys, and any other type of form in WordPress.

MonsterInsights' Custom Dimensions addon allows you to push WordPress analytics even further. You can use Google Analytics custom dimensions to generate helpful WordPress stats for:

  • Author Tracking - see stats for each author to find which author's posts generate the most traffic.
  • Post Type Tracking - see stats for WordPress post types to find out which sections are performing the best.
  • Category Tracking - see stats for your WordPress categories to find out which sections of your sites are the most popular.
  • Tags Tracking - see stats for your WordPress tags to find out which tags are the most popular.
  • SEO Score Tracking - see stats for your Yoast SEO score and see how it impacts your traffic.

  • Logged-in User Tracking - see WordPress stats for what percentage of your users are logged-in.

  • Published Time Tracking - track the performance of your posts based on their published time.

Simply put, MonsterInsights allow you to take full advantage of all the powerful Google Analytics features.

I like how simple it is for client users and how I can turn on the advanced features for myself to get all the details right.

  • Several security fixes:
    1. Fix minor XSS issue where admins could XSS each other through an unescaped manual UA field.

    • Small code style improvements.

4.0.8 2010-08-19

    • Added a simple check to see if the UA code, when entered manually, matches a basic pattern of UA-1234567-12.
    • Added integration with W3 Total Cache and WP Super Cache. The page cache is now automatically cleared after updating settings. Caching is recommended for all WordPress users, as faster page loads improve tracking reliability and W3 Total Cache is our recommended caching plugin.
    • Added the option to enter a manual location for ga.js, allowing you to host it locally should you wish to.
  • Bugs fixed:
    • Fixed implementation of _anonymizeIp, it now correctly anonymizes IP's by setting _gat._anonymizeIp.
    • Increased request timeout time for Google Analytics authentication from 10 to 20 seconds, for slow hosts (if this fixes it for you, your hosting is probably not really good, consider another WordPress host).
  • Documentation fixes:
    • Added a note about profiles with the same UA code to the Analytics Profile selection.
    • The profile selection dropdown now shows the UA code after the profile name too.
    • Updated the screenshots and the FAQ for this plugin.
4.0.4 2010-07-12

4.0.3 2010-07-12
  • New features in this release:
    • Added versioning to the options array, to allow for easy addition of options.
    • Added an option to enable comment form tracking (as this loads jQuery), defaults to on.
  • Bugs fixed:
    • If you upgraded from before 4.0 to 4.0.2 you might have an empty value for ignore_userlevel in some edge cases, this is now fixed.
    • Custom search engines were loaded after trackPageview, this was wrong as shown by these docs, now fixed.
4.0.2 2010-07-08
  • Old settings from versions below 4.0 are now properly sanitized and inherited (slaps forehead about simplicity of fix).
  • New features in this release:
    • Link sanitization added: relative links will be rewritten to absolute, so /out/ becomes http://example.com/out/ and is tracked properly.
    • Added a feature to track and label internal links as outbound clicks, for instance /out/ links.
    • Added tracking for mailto: links.
    • Added a filter for text-widgets, all links in those widgets are now tagged too.
    • Added support for _anonymizeIp.
  • Bugs fixed in this release:
    • Made sure all content filters don't run when the current user is ignored because of his user level.
4.0.1 2010-07-07

  • NOTE WHEN UPGRADING: you'll have to reconfigure the plugin so it can fully support all the new features!

    • On the session level: whether the user is logged in or not.
    • On the page level: the current posts's author, category, tags, year of publication and post type.
  • Added Google Analytics API integration, so you can easily select a site to track.
  • E-Commerce integration, tracking transactions, support for WP E-Commerce and Shopp.
  • Much much more: check out the release post.

    • Made sure internal blogroll links aren't tagged as external clicks.
