    If the theme you’re using doesn’t come with Google Analytics integration, one of the most popular options out there is Google Analytics Dashboard Plugin for WordPress by MonsterInsights plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/

    You may also add the analytics on your WordPress website without using a plugin.

    Note: Before doing anything on your website, it is always a good idea to backup your site. You can use UpdarftPlus for that.

    Adding Google Analytics Manually  (No Plugin)

    • In your WordPress backend, go to Appearance » Editor.
    • Click the header.php file on the right side below the Templates section.
    • Look for the head html end tag </head> and right above that, paste the Google Analytics Script.
    • Click update.

    Hope that helps.

    Awesome! thanks for sharing this aldinlapinig. Exactly what I need. I hate adding more and more plugin every time I need a new functionality for my site.
