Set up the web tracking code

Follow these instructions to use Google Analytics to collect data from websites.

To complete this process, you must have access to your website source code, be relatively comfortable with HTML (or have a developer that can help you), and have a Google Analytics account and property set up. Learn more about properties and how to set up a property.

If you want to collect data from a mobile app, use one of the Google Analytics SDKs. For other digital devices, use the Measurement Protocol.

To set up the web tracking code:

1. Find the tracking code snippet for your property.Sign in to your Analytics account, and click Admin in the top menu bar. From the Account and Property columns, select the property you’re working with. Click Tracking Info / Tracking Code.

2. You should see a box with several lines of JavaScript in it. Everything in this box is your tracking code snippet. It starts with <script> and ends with </script>.The tracking code contains a unique ID that corresponds to each Google Analytics property. Don’t mix up tracking code snippets from different properties, and don’t reuse this tracking code snippet on multiple domains.

3. Copy the snippet.Don’t edit your snippet. Just copy it. You might want to paste it into a text document if you’re worried about accidentally losing or changing the snippet from your clipboard.

4. Paste your snippet (unaltered, in it’s entirety) into every web page you want to track. Paste it immediately before the closing </head> tag.If your website uses templates to generate pages, enter it just before the closing tag in the file that contains the the<head> section.

5. Check your set up.Make sure that the tracking snippet installed on your website matches the code shown in the view, and see more ways you can verify your set up.
