Installing Google Analytics Code
I know I'm sorry for asking this because I'm sure it's asked ALL the
time, but I cannot seem to install my code right. Here's my blog
http://moviesworketc.blogspot.com/ - where do I put the tracking code
and where do I put my account number or something? I use a template
so does that make things different?
Thanks for your help!

Go to Layout > Edit Template and place the code just before the ending </BODY> tag at the bottom of the template codes

3.generate analytics code copy it
4.paste the code somewhere in your site/blog.
(if it a blog go to the layout page -edit-add page elemet-html/javascript-and paste there-and then save it)

If you go to my blog, can you see where I've tried to add it? How do I know what my Google ID is? Is it numbers or a name?

In the Google directions it says to "You'll need to update the "xxxx-x" in the sample above with your own Google Analytics account number." and I don't know what that account number is. Where do I get that?

Go to the following URL

https://www.google.com/analytics/se...dler?id=9310916

Which is in the following section

Analytics Settings > Profile Settings > Tracking Code

Find the following bit of code at the bottom of the page.
Copy it. Note your account number down in the code (bolded for example below)

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxxx-x");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script>


Paste this into your template code. Ideally it should come just before the closing </body> tag.

Et Voila!

Thanks tstolber, but my question is where do I get the number that replaces the following x's "UA-xxxxxxx-x". But I found it. Thanks anyways.

Thank you all for your help! I appreciate your time.
