Title: [Plugin: Google Analytics for WordPress] New Google Analytics Asynchronous Tracking Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Google Analytics for WordPress] New Google Analytics Asynchronous Tracking * [wmleler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wmleler/) * (@wmleler) * [16 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-google-analytics-for-wordpress-new-google-analytics-asynchronous-tracking/) * Google just announced that GA now supports asynchronous tracking. See [http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2009/12/google-analytics-launches-asynchronous.html](http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2009/12/google-analytics-launches-asynchronous.html) [http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2009/12/01/google-analytics-goes-async/](http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2009/12/01/google-analytics-goes-async/) * Result is faster blog loading and better analytics data. Does this plug-in (Google Analytics for WordPress) support this? Looks like a pretty easy change.
