Forum:Google Analytics for Admins

Would it be possible to add Google Analytics to Wikia? I imagine it wouldn't be too hard - just a bit of code in each skin (Mono, monaco, Quartz, etc.) - the statistics could then be displayed somewhere where only admins could see it. Sure, we have webtools... but what about "which browser"? "unique visitors"? "Do they visit this page from here"? We would love to know. Especially in light of the recent newsletter, which tells us to find good keywords for SEO, this would be very helpful. We'd know which places to link to from our main page, which places the users have trouble finding, etc. Urchin pwnge. Ti m e ro o t T • C • E 16:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Uhm, noscript tells me wikia already uses google analytics... And wikia lets you browse statistics at Special:WikiaStats. 18:57, 2 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Correct, we already use Google Analytics. However, they are not public at the moment, but it is something we have been considering (and certainly we wish for wikis to benefit from the data it provides). However, for the moment, Special:WikiaStats is your best choice. 10:36, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
