 * In installing your plugin a second Google Analytics profile seems to have been
   created, and is showing different stats about my blog site (significantly lower
   bounce rate, somewhat lower Page Views). How do I reconcile this and figure out
   which stats are correct?
 * The site is thesplicedlife.com, and is being run on WordPress 4.3.1.

 * The system will only create a new profile if you use the auto-configure option
   without choosing an existing profile.
 * You can make sure you pick the correct profile under: WordPress Admin -> Settings-
   > Better Analytics (you should see a drop-down at the top that allows you to 
   pick a profile).
 * As far as bounce rate, if you don’t want to have the system use an adjusted bounce
   rate (more on that here: [http://analytics.blogspot.com/2012/07/tracking-adjusted-bounce-rate-in-google.html](http://analytics.blogspot.com/2012/07/tracking-adjusted-bounce-rate-in-google.html)),
   disable the “User Engagement” tracking on that same settings page.
