Almost two weeks without blogging tips post. I know I am
being a bad girl these days, but I swear my schedule is hectic. I have just
started a new semester in college and between blogging, college and studying I
haven’t had any time to learn anything new with you guys. Anyway, in this post
as you guessed I am talking about how to add google analytics to your blogger
blog.
Most of you know how to add google analytics to your blogger
blog or you already added it, but to those new fellas in blogging (like me)
with no experience in computer other than the ordinary usage, I finally grasped
the importance of google analytics and even after I did, I couldn’t add it to
my blog. I couldn’t understand how to do it and when I searched the web I found
nothing, but thank god for the invention of Youtube (total life saver to me). I
found a video talking about how to add it to your blogger blog. It is an old
one, but you would grasp a little bit from it.
When you sign up to google analytics and add your blog
there, that’s no it, you would have to add a tracking code to your blog. If you
read what it says, it will go on something like this (add this code to every
page in your site) and I was like, what?! I couldn’t understand how to do that.
I have tried like adding any html to my blog, an html sidebar and still didn’t
work. I was really devastated, I thought maybe they meant adding it to every
post and every page on my blog. I just gave up, because I wouldn’t add this
code to every post I do, it will be really tiring. Finally and thank god I knew
what they meant and it is really easy. All you have to do is follow this steps
and you would be ready to use google analytics.
First you have to log into your google analytics account. If
you don’t have one, you have to make it and then add your blog to it. That is the easy part. Once your blog is
added you would go to admin in the dashboard above. Then select your blog. On the side bar there
is tracking info and under it is tracking code. Select it and you would find
the code in the area I shaded it, copy it.
Then you have to go to your blogger dashboard, select
template and edit html. Search in your html (ctrl+f) and search for
</body>. Just above </body> paste your tracking info. Click on save
template and your google analytics is attached to your blog.
