Google Analytics for WordPress

This video shows you why you should install the Google Analytics for WordPress plugin instead of just embedding the Google Analytics tracking code straight into your blog. It shows you how it uses WordPress functionality to save all sorts of post meta data in custom variables and events, and where to find these custom variables and events in Google Analytics.

This looks like a great plugin. I have analytics on my main site (not a wordpress site) and then I put that same code into the header on the portion of my site /blog that is the wordpress portion of my site. Analytics seems to be tracking them as if they are separate sites. Will installing and configuring the plugin eliminate this problem? It sounds like it would, but I'm not technical enough to know if that's correct.

@LuvemOrLeavem not sure actually, you can contact me through my site yoast.com and I'd be glad to have a look.

Hi friend.

I wonder what program do you use to make the presentation of your video.

That where it appears that graphics and everything. I found it very interesting. I'm tired of searching and not find a software that allows me to do that.

If I could indicate very grateful indeed.

Kind regards, Ricardo Silva

@TheRsbusiness hey, I used Screenflow for Mac, and the intro was custom made for me.

This is not helpfull at all, I'm sorry to say that. Your voice is extremely annoying because it's like you're swallowing the microphone. And really I cannot see what you are doing. Bad tutorial, didn't help me at all.

Should just adding it as a plugin make google analytics work? or should I also add the code?

You need a better microphone. I can barely hear your voice.
