Why are my Google Analytics Page Timings all 0.00%?
Is doing something like this enough to get page timings or is there something different I should be doing?
/* GOOGLE ANALYTICS ID */ (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga'); ga('create', [myid], 'auto'); Other stats are working using same ga which I set to my account ID.

That's because of bounce rate.
When a visitor comes to your site, he or she gets a timestamp. So, Analytics might note that User landed on your Homepage at 17:35:03. Then, Analytics assigns a new timestamp when that user accesses a new page on your site. So if user clicks on a link to your About page at 17:36:04, that leaves your Homepage with a Time on Page of 00:01:01.
But what happens if user never accesses another page on your site (in other words, if bounces?
Then there's no second timestamp for Google to work from. So they assign a Time on Page of 00:00:00.
There are few workarounds.
One is explained here: tracking adjusted bounce rate.
