    In what file? I am guessing index.php? Then is that the only place you put it on your site? Do you ever put it in another file, or is it always just one?

    You mentioned a blog in your first post. If it is a WP blog this WP plugin works great. You can also track adsense with this plugin.

    If it's not a blog then wizs is correct, above the </body> tag. If your site spans multiple domains a custom installation is needed.


    Cheers,

    Homer

    you need to put it in a file that is common for all pages.

    e.g. if you are using wordpress, put the code in the footer.

    If you site is static page, put it in every page before the </body> tag. But if your site is CMS like wordpress, drupal, there is a module where you will put the code and no need to put in every page.

    Why use a plugin if not needed. If he is using wordpress he can just put it in the header.php or footer.php file. I personally don't like having a bunch of plugins. Especially for something that is so easy to do.
