How do I add Google Analytics to my blog?
To add Google Analytics to your blog, you must first create your own theme. You can do this by creating your own from scratch, or you can copy one of ours. Then be sure to “Set” it so that your blog is using it (you may need to go to the "Yours" tab). Next click the “Edit” link.

Once you're in edit mode, you will see a list of tabs on the top left column. Click on the “Page” tab. This is the template that control how your page is displayed.

Scroll down to the bottom of the code and locate the </body> line.

Next, paste the entire chunk of Google Analytics code directly above that line. Click “Save."

In about 24 hours (this is how long Google says it takes), your information should start tracking.

Will this put analytics on every page?
By adding the code to your page template, the google analytic code will be accessed on every single page on your blog.

Will domain mapping affect my analytics?
No, as long as you are using the same code the entire time, domain mapping should not affect your Google Analytics.

How do I get the Google Analytics code?
You will need to sign up for a Google Analytics account in order to get the analytics code. If you need more help obtaining your code, please contact Google via their help center.
