      What's the best way to add google analytics to Wordpress? I read an article about creating your own plug in, but that seemed a little complicated for something that I imagine many people are doing.

        Doesn't Google have instructions on how to add it to a site already? You don't really need a CMS plugin to get it running from what I remember.

          From what I read, Google says you have to add code to every page. It's advised that you don't edit your theme code.

          I know I'm not well versed in this area, and others are, so I thought I would just ask someone that has done it.
