Ever had a time where you are installing Google Analytics and then when you go check the status, it says 'Tracking Unknown'? And are you too lazy to wait 24 hours for Google to find it by itself? Follow the steps below to fix it, but please make sure the tracking is already installed correctly before proceeding at all!
Note: If you want to learn how to install Google Analytics on your blog in the first place, click here.
1)Sign in to Google Analytics and select your site.
2)Find 'Edit' on the end of the bar: (Click to Enlarge)
3) At the top of the page, on the same line as 'Profile Settings', you'll find something that says 'Tracking Unknown ( Check Status )'
4)Simply click 'Check Status'; if your tracking javascript is installed, Tracking Status: will turn into something like "Loading" and after a while, it will be successfully tracked!

Hmm...didn't work for me. I've set up a number of Analytics tracking codes for other sites, but this one isn't updating.
Thanks. Obvious once you've done it but spent ages trying to work it out.
thanks for your input.
Wish I would have found this about a half hour ago. Thanks!
yo dude sorted nuff respect innit!!

Thanks it works fine.
But after clicking on "Check Status" it is showing "Waiting for Data" for long time and not yet reached to "successfully tracked" status.
You may have not installed it properly. Sometimes you just gotta wait.
This really worked! Great!

As simple as it seems now...thanks for the info, very helpful!!
Sweet! So is there a way to validate goal-tracking as well, like you can do in Google AdWords? I'm guessing not, because there's JavaScript in AdWords goal-tracking, but in Analytics it's just a snippet of a URL (which can get tricky with dynamic goal-submissions, instead of a new page/url).
THANKS MAN......
Thank you so much.
This is ideal. Cheer's for the help, i almost decided to wait... thanks to you i wont have too!
