Google Analytics for WordPress

This video shows you why you should install the Google Analytics for WordPress plugin instead of just embedding the Google Analytics tracking code straight into your blog. It shows you how it uses WordPress functionality to save all sorts of post meta data in custom variables and events, and where to find these custom variables and events in Google Analytics.

I Don't Have A PlugIns Menu In My WordPress Blog?

Every support doc. i’ve read, automatically assumes i have a Plugins menu in my WordPress blog after ‘Appearance’ and Before ‘Users’, which i can use to execute various code.

However i’ve been through my entire blog menu and i can’t seen to find the ‘Plugins’ menu.

I’m using a theme ‘cutline’ and am on a free account.

Also, i’ve tried to find out how to install plug-ins and couldn’t understand a word.

Does anyone have a step by step approach which starts from ‘Boot Into Windows’.
I’m on the WordPress.com account. Not WordPress.org.

What i’m trying to do is add ‘Google Analytics’ to my Blog. Does anyone know how to do that?

Does the Google Analytics plug-in for WordPress automatically insert the code when you give it the UA string?

I’m very new to using plugins on WordPress. One of them is for Google Analytics and when I tried to activate it, it asked for a UA string. So I registered on Google Analytics and got that string and entered it in the appropriate box back on WordPress. What I’m wondering is if I still have to insert the html code on the template or if its done automatically for me?
