So follow the procedure to set up your google analytics account.
Step 1
Go to analytics.google.com. You will land up on the page as shown below and there click on “Set up for free”.
Step 2
Now you will find the same page as shown below. Write your website’s name in the ‘Account Name’ section. All the data sharing options must be ticked (recommended) and click on ‘Next’.

Step 6
Now it takes you to the next option, where you will find code, through which you can do all of these things very easily. As of now, we are creating a web application not IOS/Android application. Write your website URL and name. Then click “Create stream”. Now a frontend will be displayed where you will find measurement ID (Google Analytics ID). But as of now, we will ignore that and go to tags.

Now copy the Google Site Tag and go to your WordPress dashboard. Add a new plugin called “Insert headers and footers” and activate it. Now go to settings and click on insert header and footer.
