Adding a Google Analytics tracking code to your Blogger blog can help you monitor and analyze your website's traffic and user behavior. Here are the steps to add a Google Analytics tracking code to your Blogger blog:
1. Sign in to Google Analytics:
- If you don't have a Google Analytics account, you'll need to create one. Visit the Google Analytics website (https://analytics.google.com) and sign in with your Google account.
2. Create a New Property:
- Once you're logged in, click on the "Admin" tab in the lower-left corner.
- In the "Property" column, click on the dropdown and select "Create Property."
3. Configure Property Settings:
- Follow the setup wizard to configure your property. Choose "Web" as your platform.
- Enter your website's name, URL, and select your industry category and time zone.
- Click "Create."
4. Accept Terms of Service:
- Review and accept the Google Analytics Terms of Service if prompted.
5. Get Your Tracking Code:
- After creating the property, you'll be taken to a page with your tracking code. It will look something like this:
<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=GA_MEASUREMENT_ID"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag() {
dataLayer.push(arguments);
}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'GA_MEASUREMENT_ID');
</script>
```
Note: Replace "GA_MEASUREMENT_ID" with your actual Google Analytics Measurement ID.
6. Copy the Tracking Code:
- Highlight and copy the entire tracking code.
7. Log in to Your Blogger Account:
- Go to Blogger (https://www.blogger.com/) and log in to your Blogger account.
8. Access Theme Settings:
- From your Blogger dashboard, click on the blog you want to add Google Analytics to (if you have multiple blogs).
- Navigate to the "Theme" section in the left sidebar.
9. Edit HTML:
- In the "Theme" section, look for the "Edit HTML" option and click on it.
10. Paste the Tracking Code:
- In the HTML editor, locate the closing </head> tag (usually near the end of the code).
- Paste the Google Analytics tracking code you copied in step 6 immediately before the </head> tag.
11. Save Theme:
- After pasting the code, click the "Save theme" button to save your changes.
12. Verify Installation:
- Go back to your Google Analytics account, and under the property you created, click "Next" on the tracking code page.
- Google Analytics will check if the tracking code is installed correctly. It may take a few hours for data to start appearing in your Google Analytics account.
That's it! You have successfully added Google Analytics tracking code to your Blogger blog. You can now monitor your blog's traffic and gather valuable insights about your audience.
