Go to your gmail. Normally you would then click on your blog, but instead use that same box to find "Analytics." You might have to click "more" at the bottom, and maybe "even more" but it is there. Click on it.
When that page opens look at the right (where the circle is below), click "sign in", then click "Google Analytics."
It will request about 5-6 pieces of information. One of those will be the url for your blog. Copy and paste the blog url in.
After filling in the information you will receive an "Analytic ID almost immediately." Copy it so that you can paste it in a moment.
Go to your blog. Go to your settings (the page where you re-do everything). Look at the botom of the list on the left. Click "settings." Scroll to the bottom. There is a spot to paste the Analytics ID in. Paste it. Save the settings at the top of the page.
Nothing changes on your blog visually but now you can cruise over to Google Analytics Just sign in and click on Google Analytics again) and it gives you up to date data either hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly.
You did it!
Thank you Janice!
ReplyDeleteHi Janice, so I did not get the promp on my template to add google analytics ID, so I created a test bog and added HTML and it worked! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteHi Janice, I downloaded google analytics and got the analytics ID, which I copied, paste and saved. I still don't see anything on my blog. Is this suppose to happen?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wanda
The way I have been using it is to go to the google analytics page and review the data there.
