BIGSHOT Google Analytics Popular Plugin

This Plugin will add the Google Analytics Tracker Code to your site automagically.

Updated to serve Joomla 1.5-1.6-1.7 and now 2.5 in one single iteration. The extension was also updated to use the newer Asynchronous Google Analytics tracking code from the old URCHIN.JS and GA.JS.

This Plugin was created as a better alternative to the several "module based" solutions that are out there. As far as I know this is the first and only Joomla! 1.5 Native Plugin that does this.

Google Analytics, just like this extension, is free for you to use. Visit "http://www.google.com/analytics/" to signup.

new to google analytics overall and really didn't want to paste code in all of my joomla pages, so i gave this a shot. simply enable the plugin and put in your UA-xxxxxxxx-x code and save it.

now figuring out google analytics i'm sure won't be as easy but this plug in was a huge time saver.

I use this on all my sites. Easy to install and add the tracking code to. The version I was using for 1.5 didn't put the code in the head tag but the 2.5 version does.

Super easy to install and works perfect in my case Joomla 2.5 with a Joomlart template.

I was especially looking to install the UA tracking code in a Joomlart template - The solutions given in the Joomlart forum are way to complicated - this extension does the trick. Thank you for submitting this free extension to the community.

I have been using the Google Analytics feature provided by the YJSG Framework on my site until I detected that it was the main cause for very poor rendering times. Disabled that setting and installed Bigshot plugin instead. Now the site loads in just a couple of seconds.
I wish I had realized about it sooner. It only took a minute to download and install. Thanks guys!

I've used this on Joomla 1,5 & 1.7 sites for businesses and trade shows, the same extension download works on both Joomla versions. It worked perfectly for me.

Very very easy to install & use but the code Google Analytics uses isn't the most current. The code should not be in the head of the page, right before the ending [/head] tag. I'll stick with hardcoding it in for now until a newer version is available. Thanks anyway!

Very Good and easy to use - very easy setup.

Installs in the system plugin category and is a lot easier to set up and use than the module based Google Analytics extensions.

Really can't think of any negatives.

Stunningly simple. One little snippet of code is all that is required for a permanent insertion of your analytics code. No more editing the templates directly.
