Blogger and Analytics adjusted-bounce-rate

I've had attractive discussions with frequent almost whether the bounce-rate in Google Analytics is valuable: Single of my sites has in rank almost area motor vehicle routes and neighbourhoods, and many visitors simply need to look by the side of single summon (the single suggested by Google search) to progress the in rank they need.  I've long held so as to these frequent counted as a "bounce" (ie look by the side of a summon and leave), while contacts sure me so as to Google is smarter than so as to and wouldn't count visits so as to keep up in support of a undeniable distance end to end of instant as bounces.
I've precisely exposed so as to I was straight bearing in mind all: By default, Analytics counts all one-page-only visitors as bounces.

Google allow at the moment told us how to amend this, and not count visitors as bounces if they stay on the position in support of a undeniable distance end to end of instant (we can wish how long)

Unfortunately this option isn't fully existing to Blogger users by the side of the minute. We can either

1)  Install Analytics in a way so as to it workings suitably with dynamic and mobile templates,

Thsi line of attack will on the whole likely be supported if Blogger invent one other types of templates in the hope, so is could you repeat that? I mention at the moment.  GreenLava explains how to act this.


OR

2) Install the Analytics code in the same way it gets deposit into other websites.

This won't count visitors who point of view the blog using a dynamic stencil (either as you wish single or as they added a be in charge to your URL in order to comprehend your blog so as to way).

And if you allow enabled a mobile stencil, it will simply count visitors using mobile procedure if you allow:

  •     Installed the Analytics code using an HTML/Javascript doohickey (I've explaiend how to act this)
  •     Edited your stencil so so as to doohickey is "shown" on mobile templates (by default, HTML/Javascript gadgets aren't - I've explained how to amend this draw near to the finish off of this article)

So by the side of the minute, our options in support of Blogger are to either count visitors suitably and not comprehend the adjusted bounce-rate, or undercount the visitors but progress the custom-adjusted bounce rate.
