Description
MonsterInsights Performance Addon is a WordPress plugin that changes how the Google Analytics tracking script is delivered to your site. It stores gtag.js on your own domain instead of loading it from Google, which the plugin describes as faster page loading and improved web vital scores. It also gives you no-code controls for Google Analytics sample rates.
Key Features
- Locally hosted gtag.js – The Google Analytics script is served from your own domain rather than Google's, which the plugin says speeds up page loading and raises web vital scores.
- Automatic script updates – MonsterInsights pushes the newest version of the Google Analytics script to your site for you, so you do not have to update it manually.
- Ad blocker bypass – Because the script loads from your own domain, it can get past ad blockers, which the plugin says improves tracking accuracy.
- Sample rate control – On busy sites you can change the overall sample rate and the site speed sample rates through the plugin's settings, without writing code.
- Google Analytics 4 support – The addon is stated to work with Google Analytics 4 properties.
- Web Vitals monitoring – The plugin monitors Web Vitals and configures Google Analytics for site performance.
Who Is It For
This addon is for WordPress site owners already using MonsterInsights who want their Google Analytics tracking to have less effect on page speed and Core Web Vitals. It also suits high-traffic sites that need to limit how many hits reach their Google Analytics properties.
