Why I Created this Tutorial
It's been a couple of years since I set up Google Analytics for a new website and the interface has changed so much in 2021.
It took me a while to figure out how to get my UA-Tracking code on Google Analytics - and then I found I didn't need to copy and paste over into All-in-One SEO because all you have to do now is connect Monster Insights.
Monster Insights connects to your Gmail address, grabs the code on your behalf - and then makes your Google Analytics available within your WordPress dashboard.

As if creating a Universal Analytics accounts and Tags wasn't enough, everything is also connected to the AIO-SEO and Monster Insights (the latter I never heard of until today!)
Again, thank you so much!
