Activating Google Analytics

Tracking website traffic using Google Analytics is a great way to see who is coming to a website, how they are getting there, and what they are looking for. A Google account is required to set up Google Analytics.

Sign up for a Google Analytics Account. 

1. Go to the Analytics sign up page to get started
2. Click the "Sign Up" button.
3. Add an Account Name and Website Name in the appropriate fields. 
4. Add the Website Address.  Make sure the whole address appears, such as: http://www.foxbright.com
5. Pick the correct time zone - this will help the reports be accurate.
6. Click Get Tracking ID
7. Accept the terms of agreement.
8. Copy the Tracking ID. It should look something like: UA-12252409-1  
9. A "Tracking code" is also provided. This code has already been put into the Foxbright CMS. The Tracking ID is the only thing needed to be added to the CMS. 

Getting tracking activated in the CMS

1. Log in to the CMS administration panel using a web administrator account.
2. Click the Configuration menu and select Integration->Google Integration Settings from the menu list.
3. On the Enable Features tab, make sure Enable Analytics is set to Yes.
4. Paste in the UA-NNNNNN code in the  UID for Analytics field.
5. Save your changes.
6. All web pages will now be enabled on the website. New pages added will automatically be added to the analytics. Statistics may take a day or two to take effect.
