MonsterInsights
Why choose it: WordPress publishers, stores, and service businesses that want Google Analytics reporting and event tracking without custom tagging.

WordPress Google Analytics plugin with ecommerce, forms, Search Console, and event tracking.
#6 of 7 in Analytics Plugins by Overall Score
ExactMetrics connects WordPress to Google Analytics and brings audience, traffic, content, ecommerce, and conversion reporting into the WordPress dashboard. Its tracking tools cover outbound and affiliate links, file downloads, scroll depth, forms, UserID, custom dimensions, Enhanced Link Attribution, and Search Console data without requiring manual event-tag configuration.
ExactMetrics tracks affiliate destinations by a configured link prefix instead of requiring individual event rules for every affiliate URL. Its Forms add-on records form impressions and submissions as GA4 events, then provides form-level reports inside WordPress. Those conversion reports require the Pro edition or higher, while outbound event data can still be examined directly in Google Analytics.
Calculated from facts we verified on ExactMetrics's own website, using published thresholds. Nobody can pay to change it. Together with Market Signal it makes the Overall Score of 49 that orders our lists.
