Instructions on how to set up Google Analytics:

Step 1: Create a Google account or use an existing one

If you already have a Google or Gmail account, you don't need to create a new one and you can go to the next step. If you don't have a Google or Gmail account, follow the instructions below.

1. Click the following link to create your Google account

2. Vyplňte všechny informace ve formuláři a klikněte na tlačítko „Další krok“

3. Google se vás pak zeptá, zda chcete vytvořit veřejný profil Google+. To je volitelné a nemusíte to nastavovat, pokud nechcete. Klikněte na tlačítko „Vytvořit profil“, chcete-li jej přeskočit nebo klikněte na tlačítko „Ne, díky“.

Step 2: Use a new Google Account to set up Google Analytics

Now that you have a Google account, you can go to the Google Analytics settings.

1. Although you are still logged into your account, go to this website address: http://www.google.com/analytics

2. V pravém horním rohu klikněte na položku „Přístup k Google Analytics“ a budete přesměrováni na novou stránku

3. Klikněte na „Registrace“ na pravé straně

4. Službu Google Analytics budeme nastavovat pro webové stránky a ne pro mobilní aplikaci. Proto se ujistěte, že je nahoře označená „Webová stránka“

5. Fill in all the information:

• Account name
• Site name
• URL of the page
• Category
• Time zone

6. Nakonec klikněte na modré tlačítko „Získat měřící ID“ v dolní části obrazovky

7. Google Analytics Terms of Service agreement will be displayed and you will have to accept this agreement then you will be allowed to continue further

8. You will then have a unique tracking code that you need to insert on your website to track traffic

Step 3: Install the measurement code

1. In order for Google Analytics to report on various website metrics, you will need to install measurement code on each page of your website

2. If you don't have experience adding code to your website, you should contact the company that manages your website

3. Copy and paste the measurement code into your website's header or footer file

4. If you are adding the measurement code to the header of the file, make sure the code is placed before the closing tag

5. If you are adding the measurement code to the footer of the file, make sure the code is placed before the closing tag </html>

Step 4: Make sure the measurement code is on all pages

K dispozici je velmi užitečný nástroj nazvaný Google Analytics Checker, který skenuje celý váš web (až 10 000 stránek) a zjistí, zda je měřící kód na všech stránkách. Zadejte název vašeho webu a klikněte na tlačítko „Zkontrolovat vaše stránky“. Pokud jste úspěšně nainstalovali měřící kód, zobrazí se znak zaškrtnutí u všech stránek.

Step 5: Learn how to use Google Analytics

Now that you have installed the measurement code on all pages of your website, it will take 24 hours for Google to start collecting data from your website. This important code will help you to know the site traffic.
