Adding Google Analytics
- Step 1 - decide if we’re creating a new analytics account or using an existing account held by client.
- Step 2a - if create new, get someone to set up and provide tracking code (doesn’t have to be Jamie - we all have analytics accounts with our Vizzuality email address!)
- Step 2b - if use existing, get the tracking code and install on the site
- Step 3 - invite relevant people from vizz (definitely Martin and Jamie)/ client to the account so they can access the data
- Step 4 - think through custom events you want to track (GA tracks pages by standard, but not button clicks etc)
For an example of the custom, take a look at this spreadsheet we put together for Global Forest Watch country pages
