  I’d like to link my Google Analytics to my blog, which is hosted on WordPress (AKA a example.wordpress.com kinda thing). Is this possible at all?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Note we cannot install Google Analytics on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. This is a multi-user blogging platform. Our blogs share a common architecture. We bloggers cannot access metadata on free hosted WordPress.com blogs and install any tracking code, we have no FTP access and we cannot install plugins.

  Scroll down to “visitor tracking” for info on free third party stats programs we can use. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/popular-posts/
