asp.net web stats - google analytics

Question

i want to add tracking to my website. I saw google analytics which seems to track what i need.

So do i stick the google analytics snippet in each page, in a master page, just in my default page? what is the best practice here to get the best metrics.

Answer 1

The google analytics code snippet has to be on every page you want to track.

Easiest is to put the code into the master page(s) if you use them.

Otherwise put it on every page, or put it into a user control which you can include on the relevant pages or include it using a server-side include, e.g:

<!-- #include file="file_containing_google_analytics_code.js" -->
