In the Google interface, when you “Add Website Profile”, you are shown a piece of JavaScript that you are told to insert into the page, in that script is an unique string that identifies the website you just defined, that is your User Account string (it’s shown in bold in the example below).

<script src=”http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js” type=”text/javascript”>
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
_uacct = “UA-00000-0”
urchinTracker();
</script>

Next, in your blog’s Dashboard, click on “Plugins” and activate the plugin titled “Google Analytics”. After it’s been activated, click on “Options” on the top menu, then “Google Analytics” on following page’s submenu.

Once you have entered your User Account number, your pages will be trackable by Google Analytics. Allow 24 hours before statistics are available at Google Analytics.

Note: A Google Analytics plug-in was added at DeafRead Blogs. It may not be available for other Wordpress setups. If someone has a self-hosted Wordpress blog, there are a number of plug-ins that can be downloaded here.

I swear by Google Analytics You’ll see the Analytics code on all my websites.
