What is Google Analytics?

Google Analytics (abbreviated GA) is a free service offered by Google that generates detailed statistics about the visitors to a website. Its main highlight is that a webmaster can optimize AdWords advertisement and marketing campaigns through the use of GA's analysis of where the visitors came from, how long they stayed on the website and their geographical position. {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics}

Why is Analytics Important?
If you (the Board Owner) want to know what is really happening on your site and how best to optimize it to increase visitors and participation and hopefully...... get a conversion.... (make money).... then GA is an important tool for you...

I don't think it matters where you put the code as long as it is on the page being displayed. If it is in the footer then it is going to be on every page. Google does not just read the footer, it reads the content of the whole page. It does not matter where it gets put as long as it is on every page that gets displayed and the footer does that.

i don't remember who, but someone told me that the correct way is put the code in the footer ...

@parent: you need to register on google.com and get the code ... only who owns the google account can see the stats ...
