Can You Add Google Analytics to Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 7:42 am

Google Analytics is a free web analytics service that tracks and reports website traffic. It’s the most widely used website statistics service in the world, used by over 50% of the 10,000 most popular websites.

Adding Google Analytics to your Squarespace website is a simple process that can be completed in just a few minutes. First, you’ll need to create a Google Analytics account and get your tracking code. Then, you can add your tracking code to your Squarespace website by following these instructions:

  1. In the Home Menu, click Settings.
  2. Under Website, click Advanced.
  3. Click External Service Settings.
  4. In the Google Analytics Account Number field, paste your tracking code.
  5. In the Tracking Domain field, enter “auto” (without the quotation marks).
  6. Click Save.

That’s it! You’ve now added Google Analytics tracking to your Squarespace website.

Note:

If you’re using Squarespace 5, you can still add Google Analytics tracking by following these instructions.

PRO TIP: Google Analytics cannot be directly added to Squarespace. However, there is a workaround using Google Tag Manager. Please be aware that this workaround requires some knowledge of code and web development. If you are not comfortable with code, we recommend working with a developer to implement this solution.

Conclusion

Yes, you can add Google Analytics to Squarespace! Just create a Google Analytics account and get your tracking code. Then, add your tracking code to your Squarespace website by following these instructions.
