How to Integrate Google Analytics with Blogger

Google Analytics shows measurement of your website's hit or page views. It gauges your audience's engagement with your blog or website according to the times they view your page. You will also see your blogger blog's unique views (count of every single person viewing) unlike Blogger's builtin Stats counter which just sums all the views regardless of the number of people viewing. Google Analytics even lets you integrate various web analytics tools like Google Adsense's analytics if you want to track your earnings according to page views and other parameters.

Without further ado, here's how you connect Google Analytics with Blogger.

If you don't have a Google Analytics account yet, then create one.

Go to Google Analytics' website.

Click on "Sign In" and on the dropdown menu, "Google Analytics".

You will be redirected to a page where you will have to sign up.

Click on the "Sign Up" button.

Type all the data describing your blogger website.

Below this, set your time zone.

Click on "Get Tracking ID" button.

On an overlay window, click "I Accept" button for Google Analytics Terms of Service.

You will be redirected to a window showing your tracking ID.

Highlight your tracking ID, copy and save it on a notepad or other text editor.

You can now close that window.

Let's proceed to Blogger.

Log in to Blogger.

Go to the Settings of your blog.

Under Settings, click on the lowest part, "Other".

Go to the bottom part and paste over your blog's Google Analytics tracking ID and save new settings.

Edit your template

Ctrl + F </body>.

Above the closing tag of your blog's body, add Google Analytics' code:

<b:include data='blog' name='google-analytics'/>

Save your template and you're done.

You should be able to see your Blogger blog's page views tracked by Google Analytics within an hour.
