We track statistics and demographics for Geekswithblogs.net using Google Analytics and I am very impressed with this product. However, due to the nature of our blog system, several bloggers want to track their information independently as well. To make this happen, I used a modification to the original Urchin code Google offered, but that recently quit working as they upgraded the codes they offer. So the upgrade of codes will most likely cause you to upgrade your code.
Here are the steps to do it:
- Via Google Analytics, log in an this should redirect you to the homepage
- Find your site in the grid and click Edit
- In the top right corner of the active content on the page, click Check Status
- Click the New Tracking Code header
- Copy the code into Notepad from this results textbox
- Remove the first script section as the site is already configured to load this.
- Copy the remaining javascript and place it in your News section
- Wait roughly 24 hours and Google Analytics will start collecting data.
