Google analytics plugin is not set up and WP.com does not seem very user-friendly with the set of allowed plug-ins.
We actually need it, as it provides more data that we need than the Stats page.

Best regards

Many people get confused about this. I want to be sure you are clear.

1. On this support forum we provide support for this blog which is hosted by WordPress.COM http://icollectmenus.wordpress.com/

2. We cannot use JavaScript and we cannot use Google Analytics on WordPress.COM blogs.

3. If you are referring to WordPress.ORG installs then know we cannot help you here. That support is provided at http://wordpress.org/support/

I do have my own hosted blogs.

If this thread is about those blogs that are NOT being hosted by WordPress.com then you are posting to the wrong support forum. We don't provide support here for WordPress.ORG software. If that's the software you want help with you need to post to http://wordpress.org/support/

It is for the Google Analytics code. I want it on each page but don't want to have to remember to try to include it. A script would help :)

<script type="text/javascrip">

_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-3XXXXXX7-1']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

(function() {

WordPress.com has tons of search engine juice.

Don't worry about it. Put out good high quality posts regularly with appropriate keywords in them, categorize and tag them (no more than 10 tags) and the magic will happen.
