u don't install analytics. You just place a few lines of code right before the closing body tag. This will probably be in your footer.php file since you're using wordpress. Do you have a google account yet? If so, setup a website profile and get the tracking code from there.

Need custom articles written by an experienced writer? Look no further!

i just chuck it into a text widget....works fine

i just find that it takes a long time to get picked up by analytics nowadays, so don't worry if it does not show immediately

Like ChessGuy said... open footer.php and paste it in right BEFORE the </body> tag.

to clarify a bit more, the folder/file you are looking for is :

wp-content/themes/YourThemeName/footer.php

I do like grumpyjacksa's idea tho of putting it into a text widget... that way if you change your theme, you don't have to add the code every time.
