Do I have to pay 300€ to plug the free GOOGLE ANALYTICS?

Hello,
I am totally lost… do I actually have to pay 300euros to plug in Google Analytics (which is free….) ?
Is there any other way to do it?
Thanks !

Hi there. Yes, Google Analytics is only available to blogs that have the Business upgrade plan enabled. https://en.support.wordpress.com/google-analytics/
Keep in mind, Google and WordPress.com are different companies. Google offers Analytics for free, but WordPress.com still has the right to charge a fee for making their software compatible with Google’s. Why they chose to only make it available to business users I don’t know, but unfortunately that’s how it is.
I’m afraid there’s no other way you can use Google Analytics with WordPress.com
You can also verify your blog with Google Webmaster tools which, while it doesn’t give as much information as Google Analytics, is still better than nothing: https://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/

To add to what @kokkieh mentioned, 300 Euros is not just the price of Google Analytics.
You will get a whole bunch of upgrades for an year for that price. Google Analytics is just one of them.

Or you can try this: Check out Cloud Flare to get free Google Analytics.
