Adding Google Analytics to Squidoo Lens
Ranked #743 in Squidoo Community, #83,000 overall
Can you add Google Analytics to a Squidoo Lens?
Yes now you can! Since a short while this wasn't possible so I created this lens to let lensmasters know and inform them on an alternative. But for really helpful information on how to add Google Analytics on your lenses I recommend you to visit the lens directly below here.
Of course Squidoo Stats provides a lot of useful statistics like where your visitors come from (traffic sources), how many visitors the lens receives, the rank of the lens within Squidoo, the amount of money the lens has made for you or charity and through which link people leave your lens. (clickouts)
Sometimes we want more info. You might for example want to know from which country your visitors are, or the majority of your visitors are male or female or maybe you are really interested in knowing how long they stay on your page.

With these extended statistics you are able to improve your lens and increase traffic. Google Analytics (GA) offers these kind of statistics and now you can implement GA on a Squidoo lens!

Google Analytics Alternative for Squidoo
Get extra stats for your Squidoo lens with Clicky Web Analytics
Clicky Web Analytics is simply the best way to monitor, analyze, and react to your blog or web site's traffic in real time.
Since Google Analytics uses JavaScript and Squidoo doesn't allow us to use JavaScript on our lenses I have been looking for a non-Javascript tracking code.
Clicky Web Analytics offers a HTML based tracking code you can use on Squidoo. This image based tracking system isn't nearly as detailed as the JavaScript version but offers more features than the Squidoo Stats.
You can sign up at Clicky Web Analytics for free. Their other product; Clicky Web Statistics starts at less than $2 per month. When you register you will get 21 days of FREE premium service so you can try out every feature.
Didn't know this before but just found out that:
Free and trial accounts are limited to tracking 1 web site. Please upgrade to premium service to add more sites to your account!

Best Book available on Google Analytics
I am in the process of building a new web site and this book showed me everything I needed (and much more) on Google Analytics. It is written by Europe's Google Analytics leader and it takes even the novice user (like myself) into incredible depths. If you need the ultimate guide, this is it.
If the bounce rate for a page is 100%, that means each person who entered the site on that page viewed that page only, then left the site.

- very interesting lens. I had no idea that we couldn't track with google analytics on squidoo. May I ask why, if we can't track with Google analytics, does there appear to be a box for a google analytics code if you click your "My settings" button in the top right-hand corner? Thanks for any thoughts you could share on this. Great informative lens!
