Site Kit by Google – Analytics, Search Console, AdSense, Speed

It's adding 1.8 seconds of load time with its scripts alone, and that's above what just manually adding analytics does.

It's funny that a plugin by Google triggers a fairly big warning in Lighthouse about it being too large.

Currently it is just a data visualizer with little actionable tasks. Key elements that would help integration with Good Merchant Center to meet all expectations it requires (er, demands) would be nice. Especially your narrow POV of returns policies, necessary payment services, and Google reviews. There is zero room for nuance or merchant/service specific needs as you must assimilate to a predefined checkbox list of specifics that are unrealistic to the needs of a business, and often ignore reality. And all of this leads to an added expense of the business that migrates to COGS. Insist upon a relaxed return policy - increase prices. As a tiny business trying to make it easy for good customers to shop with us, avoid scammers, and give a solid easy to navigate experience does not meet Google's demands and leads to us getting downgraded. So, you have room to make things a lot better for real small businesses that can't ever compete with Amazon and Walmart - so stop expecting us to!

Dall'ultimo aggiornamento non riesco più a gestire gli articoli con un account sul sito. Lo posso fare solo con l'account di amministratore e non come editore. E' frustrante. Se disattivo il plugin allora funziona ma non vedo i banner di adsense

So it seems like when I've added this to my websites, first, it makes the website slower, and second, I seem to get a lot more bot traffic, and that was not intended. Also, the bot traffic does not come from Google; it seems that a lot of it comes from elsewhere. Not only that, I do have customer complaints because now their own websites are showing them ads for other companies similar to theirs. Based on that, I am no longer using Google Analytics on my website and am running my own open-source analytics.

The main thing I need to track is how many times people click a certain link on the webpage, where they leave the website, and where they land on the website from. Tracking sales is hard because you'd have to know your customer base and build rapport based on their orders. Google does help with that, but it does not fully guarantee or provide complete access to the system. Based on that, it seems that paying for any service from Google for analytics purposes only works if you fully integrate with Google’s ecosystem. The problem with that is it reveals customer data to Google data that your customers often don’t realize is being shared.

Can not keep using. Not suitable for me.

Eu gosto muito desse plugin ele ajuda e simplifica muito a vida de quem implementar sites, lojas e portais WordPress, tanto para o administrador como para o cliente ter uma acesso simplificado das estatísticas de acesso do site, também a integração de soluções Google como o Tag manager, AdSense ou Adwords é top de mais.

I find this a very useful tool. Mirrors what is in google search console, but useful to be able to access via wordpress.

Das Plugin von Google gefällt mir hervorragend. Das Site Kit funktioniert einwandfrei und ist intuitiv bedienbar. Keine komplizierten Handhabungen oder Überlegungen notwendig. Man wird Schritt-für-Schritt durch den Prozess geführt und kann viele Google Dienste mit dem Site Kit verbinden. Ich verwende es unter anderem für Google Adsense. Vielen Dank, Google!

Terrible - causing php fatal errors and crashing several of my sites. Can't believe this is a google product. Don't use it.
