Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on
0
Hi All, I've just installed the ''Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on'' in my IE8 browser and then re-started the browser and checked the installation was successful in the browser itself and in the Control Panel/Add Remove Programmes and it was.
But when I checked my stats in Google Analytics they are exactly the same as before i.e. they still contain my own internal stats for my own visits to my website!!
I thought as soon as I activated it, I would see all of my testing and tweaking of pages visits drop out of my data immediately!! i.e. that my own visit stats would be removed or have I misunderstood this?
Any help and advice greatly received.
Regards, Kevin Walker.

Hi Kevin.<div><br /></div><div>As far as I know there isn't a plugin or browser add-on that will modify existing Analytics records. What this browser add-on <em>should</em> do is prevent your own page visits from counting in your Analytics <em>going forward from when you activate it.</em></div><div><em><br /></em></div><div>Thanks.</div><br /><br />Brian Zeligson<br /> Customer Support Representative<br /> WPDirect.com<br />
