How do you find the UA code?
 

I am trying to install Google Analytics on my WP site, and I am stopped by the fact that I am not sure where to find the UA code. I am hosted by Hostgator. Can anyone tell me?

Oh, and when I got to a page where there was a drop down menu of my other sites which do have GA installed, and my sites hosted by my friend were listed and not my Hostgator site. Will I screw up those sites if I change the GA in any way?

Are you using Google Analytics for WordPress by Joost de Valk?

This is how I do it: I first go to GoogleAnalytics.com and switch to the "old version" view. Then I proceed to the "Overview." From there, on the bottom, is a link to "Add Website Profile."

Once done with that, I go to my WordPress site and into the analytics plugin page. I hit the big blue "Click here to authenticate with Google" button. And that's it!

You just follow the onscreen instructions at each step.
