    The RankMath Support Team,

    Trust you are doing fine.

    Please I’ll want your guide on how to track outbound links from my website.

    I need to monitor how visitors engage on my website and visit other websites from my pages, including my Amazon affiliate links.

    I have tried searching the net but I don’t seem to find a guide. Most are really confusing.

    While some are recommending to run the setup through Google Tag Manager, others are saying directly through the analytics code itself installed on the website.

    My Google analytics code was installed through RankMath.

    I don’t know my way around this. Kindly help me.

    Warm regards.

  • This is an entirely different topic, if it could be attended to under the same ticket please.

    All my links under Core Web Vitals in GSC appear to “need improvement.”

    I have WP Rocket on my website to clear used CSS but the problem still persist.

    I use very few plugins to keep my website as light as possible – 11 in total, and all very important
    CloudFlare
    RankMath
    Instant indexing
    Elementor
    Elementor PRO
    WP SMTP
    WP Forms lite
    WP Rocket
    iThemes security
    Essential Addons for Elementor
    Premium Addons for Elementor

    While desktop scores above 90 in Google Page Insight tool, mobile scores between 60-70

    When I access the pages from mobile phone it loads well to me.

    Thn one more thing, a different topic again.
    I don’t think Google analytics is tracking the true duration users spend on my website making the bounce rate appear very high above 85%.

    Sometimes I visit a page (random) through Google search and spend a minute up to 2mins. It records the visit but not the time spent.

    Kindly assist me on these topics, please.

    Warm regards.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math.

    You can follow this guide to track outbound links:
    https://www.optimizesmart.com/track-outbound-links-in-google-analytics/

    Rank Math only adds the Analytics tracking code, to add the Tag Manager code you will have to use some other plugin or add it manually.

    For the bounce rate, please check if the tracking code is added twice on your website.

    For improving the web vitals, please refer to this guide:

    Hope this helps.

    We look forward to helping you.
