add Google Analytics to Wordpress?
-
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.

There are existing WP plugins that would make this easier. Here is a link that might help.
