    I think you should go to design > theme editor > footer.php and put the code before the </body> tag.

    No need to put it in all pages. Once you have added it in footer file, it will get inserted on all the pages of blog.
    You can check source code (through web browser) of any page to confirm the link

    Yep, put it on your footer.
    Also, you might want to look at woopra, it got a very nice stats. I use it for all my sites, lucky me I got accepted back in beta invites.
