Google Analytics is really, really popular because it gives you information about your site like where people came from, which page is the most popular, etc, for free. This information is important for you so you can tell where to focus your efforts on.
Well, this is a quick tutorial teaching you how to successfully install Google Analytics on any Blogger-hosted blog. This technique is easily applied to other blog sites and even normal sites. The concept is the same.
