Add LinkedIn Insight Tag for LinkedIn Ads

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

76 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 15 listed. 61 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 98% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 10 days ago and the previous band took 4.1 years to cross, so the real count is still just under 5K.

   The last one star review didn’t go far enough in explaining the deception. I only give 2 stars since the tag probably works, but I won’t be using it for just a snippet of code. The author needs to know that lying to people to extract personal information is not ethical and illegal in my country. Note that the plugin asks you to “Click on Allow & Continue to activate Linkedin Insight Tag” as if it is mandatory to use the plugin. “Click on Allow & Continue to activate Linkedin Insight Tag on your website :)! The Linkedin tag (with base & event codes) allows you to track actions people take on your website. Never miss an important update — opt-in to our security and feature updates notifications. See you on the other side.” Then you will be sharing the following: View Basic Profile InfoNever miss important updates, get security warnings before they become public knowledge, and receive notifications about special offers and awesome new features.Your WordPress user’s: first & last name, and email address View Basic Website InfoHomepage URL & title, WP & PHP versions, and site language View Basic Plugin InfoCurrent plugin & SDK versions, and if active or uninstalled View Plugins & Themes ListNames, slugs, versions, and if active or not If I misunderstood what “Allow and continue” does I am happy to be proven wrong.

   I don’t understand why this exists… it adds the linkedin javascript to the frontend. That’s it. It contains 10x more bloat and advertising than actual function. It won’t fix any issues you might have with linkedin tags like csp errors.

   I initially tried to use Google Tag Manager to add the LinkedIn Insights tag to my site. Added, waited, tested, failed and tried again several times. After getting super frustrated, I installed this plugin. Within minutes of using it, the tag was signaling LinkedIn and I was ready to launch my campaign. Awesome!
