Verifying Website ownership using the Google Analytics Method

Go back to your Dashboard tab
Click: All-In-One SEO; General settings.

Scroll down until you see: Google Analytics ID.
Paste the code you copied from the Google Analytics site
Note: Do not place this code in the location: Google Webmaster Tools. That location would be used for a different method. It's a common mistake, one which i made myself!

Scroll down and click: Update Options

Next Page: Let's get you verified!

Thanks for great training, I had not used my personal name for setting up Google Analytics and it was stopping webmaster tools from verifying my site using analytics. It is working now so thanks very much for your time and instructions.

Thanks Bob, I just started using GA a few days ago.

I don't have All in One SEO installed though..I have been advised not to install that due to fact that I use Yoast but still am now using GA! I have your training bookmarked too!

Yeah, you don't want any conflicts.

I appreciate the comment and bookmark. There are a lot of tutorials about this subject. This one should be good for basic beginners (like me).

Thank you, Cynthia!
