How to Install Google Analytics

Having a way to measure your website’s success is very important for all businesses. Google Analytics is free and easy to use, but many small business owners have no idea on how to install it. Take a look at the video below that shows you how to install Google Analytics.

To install Google Analytics all you need to do is follow a few simple steps:

1. Sign up for Google account.
2. Copy the provided code.
3. Paste the provided code right before the </body> tag on the page(s) that you want to track.
4. Save your code.
5. Upload the page to your server.

This is not a difficult process, but you have to know exactly where to place the code for it to work correctly.

Once the code is successfully uploaded give it at least 24 hours to take effect. Come back to Google Analytics to view your website’s progress.
