Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

When I first tried to do this, I struggled to get it to work. Eventually I stumbled upon the easiest, most foolproof method ever. Let me save some newbies some growing pains...

All you need for this method is your analytics ID, which get from your actual analytics account when you take the first step in setting up a website, and the all in one SEO plugin installed and activated. Go to the all in one SEO tab directly underneath "dashboard" and scroll down until you reach "google settings." Fill in the "Google Analytics ID" field then scroll to the top or bottom and click "update options."

Annnnd you're good! Go to your analytic account and it should be tracking your visits.
