WP-EZ Website Builder: How to Integrate Google Analytics into Your Website

To Integrate Google Analytics with your website...
 
1) You must have a Google account.
2) Set up a Google Analytics profile/property for your website:
  • After creating a Google account, go to http://analytics.google.com/
  • In the “Welcome to Google Analytics” page, click the “Start Measuring” button
  • In the account name, enter your church/business/school/ministry name
  • Click “Next”
  • In the property name, enter your website URL (ex: ourchurch.com)
  • Then select your timezone and currency
  • Click "Next"
  • Add info about your organization (business size, categories on how do you intend to use Analytics)
  • Click “Create”
  • In the Terms of Service, popup, check the box next to "I also accept..."
  • Click the "I Accept" button
  • In the "My email communications" popup, leave everything unchecked and click "Save"
  • The screen that follows says, "Next Step: Set up a data stream to start collecting data"
  • For "Choose a platform," select "Web"
  • Enter your Website URL (e.g. OurChurch.Com) and Stream name "website"
  • Click "Create stream"
  • Write down your Stream ID and Measurement Id somewhere for safe keeping. 
3) Configure your WP-EZ website with your Google Analytics ID (as shown in the video above)
  • Open a new web browser tab
  • Login to MyOCC
  • Click to your WP-EZ Dashboard
  • Click the “More” menu and select “Google Analytics”
  • Click “Plugin Settings.” This will cause the form with the GA settings to appear.
  • In the "GA Tracking ID" box enter your "Measurement Id" (starts with G- )
  • For "Tracking Method" select "Global Site Tag"
  • Skip down to "Admin Users" and check the box next to "Disable tracking of Admin-level users" (This will prevent your pageviews from being counted in the data)
  • Click "Save Changes"
