Is there any way to obtain information for website analytics for the past two days if I don't have a plugin or anything like that already?
Google AdSense would help if you have inserted its script inside webpage. Another solution would be to look after traffic usage provided by hosting company.

Can anyone tell me how can I track number of views,likes,comments and shares in a collaboration and community site. This is not a Google site. This site was created using lumapps. It's a collaboration site, Which works similar to Google+, where you can write a blog, post and like/ share the same. I need a way of keep tracking the likes/shares/views on such posts or blogs, So that I can display the same in Google data studio.
I heard it's possible using Google tag manager. Can anyone confirm this OR let me know about anyways of achieving the same.
Thanks and Regards
Kumar
You would do this by sending an event to Google Analytics and using this source in Data Studios.
Please see reference on how to send events using Google Tag Manager and custom Variables.

I have a Wordpress website and have the Personal plan.
My goal is to implement the tracking code of the Google Tag Manager on each site.
When I am on the Wordpress site in the HTML view, I should be able to paste one tracking code as close to the opening <head> tag as possible on every page of my website but this is not possible.
That´s why I had a talk with somebody from the Wordpress Support team and their answer was the following:
I believe the code for Google Analytics is meant to go in the header of the site. Since WordPress.com is a fully managed environment, we don't have access to the header code.
Instead, we have a built in Google Analytics option available as part of the Business upgrade.
The issue is I don´t want to spend 25$ a month just to have Google Analytics integrated on my website. There must be also a way for somebody like me with a Personal plan to implement the tracking codes.
When I tried to implement them, they were not hidden on the website which should not be the case (because "hidden" is in the code).
Did anybody of you have the same issue like I am facing?
P.S.: There are also Plugins for Google Analytics but with my plan I can´t upload any Plugins. :/
I integrated the code on a text widget. It worked just fine. If you dont give title to the widget, its even completly invisible. so dont spend unecessary money
I'm trying to find a web site/resource that has a working demo of Google Analytics to use.
As I have no website etc to be able to link my Analytics account to, I have no way of reviewing/learning to use Google Analytics.
Is anyone aware of such a demo available to the public?
Are you're asking for is a site where you can see GA working?
Years ago I set up 3 unusual but extremely effective GA learning sites mainly for myself (so they are crude).
I still use 2 of them today with Real Time reporting and Chrome extensions dataSlayer & WASP.
They accept your own Web Property ID (UA-xxxxx.yy) and save it in a cookie so the data goes into your own account.
Captures data to be sent to GA.
It's currently at http://cyclonal.com.
It still uses Classic GA (_gaq) - any offers to upgrade it to Universal gladly accepted
I also cloned a site used by the GA Dev team's (with permission)
It tested almost every feature of GA at the time.
Which is at http://cyclonal.com/g (has a history of the site link in the footer)
Finally, and probably what you may want to clone/create yourself, is a free form version of the concepts behind the above sites at http://cyclonal.com/sandbox/codeExec
Let me know if that works for you.
Google team released a Google Analytics demo account: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6367342?hl=en#access You can start "playing" with this account to get familiarized with google analytics api!
I'm fairly new to GA, so please bear with me...
I know how to create a custom report for one site. But is there a way I can create a custom report for all the sites, where all sites would be individually listed.
Here you see that I have more then one site under the same account:
This is what I'm doing at the moment, by hand:
Tks all!
Take a look at supermetrics or google's own magic script to pull in data from multiple accounts into Google Spreadsheets.
So I've been trying to set up Google Analytics to track site's (Tumblr) blog separately from the rest of the site, but I've been having no luck. All of the tutorials online seem to be outdated, and Google's own help center isn't helping.
Can someone please help. I tried messing with filters, but simply can't get it to work.
The website is sitename.com and the blog is blog.sitename.com. They both share a tracking code.
Thanks!
Create an a custom include filter on the hostname:
on one profile, include only ^www.domain.com$
on another profile, include only ^blog.domain.com$
Beware that e-Commerce transactions can't be filtered by hostname but only by transaction ID
I encourage you to keep a 3rd profile without filters, to be able to check that you don't miss anything.
Create two Analytics profiles, one for each site. Then put their respective tracking codes on each site.
