    Edit header.php of your current template and then add in the google analytics code within the <head> code

    I added the analytics code to the footer template, and it worked fine. It's a pretty easy modification to make.

    It's best to use a plugin that helps you insert codes in either your header or footer, like the Header-Footer plugin. If you go and edit your theme's header.php or footer.php, then the Analytics code will disappear if you change to a different theme. This won't be a problem if you use a plugin instead.

    1) Generate the Analytics code from the Google site.
    2) Install the Header-Footer plugin into your WordPress blog.
    3) Copy-paste the analytics code to the footer section in the Header-Footer admin page within WordPress.
