How to configure your website in admin tool?

- Go to admin and make a new property.

- You just have to add your website link and Google Analytics will provide you the script with Google tracking ID which is unique. You just have to put the Google Analytics code in your master file. I am working in MVC, So I added that in layout.cshtml

<script type="text/javascript">
var
_gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'Google Tracking Id']);

_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
(function () {

var
ga = document.createElement('script');
ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;

ga.src = (
'

https:
' == document.location.protocol ?

'https://ssl'
: 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
var
s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);

})();

</
script>

After 24 Hours of time your website Info will start getting tracked by Google Analytics.

Code implementation for Event Tracking?

Now If you want to track particular event like click of button, Slider change then you have to write few lines of code.
In your JavaScript file you just have to write the below code

$('.ClassName').click(function () {
_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Category', 'Action, 'label']);
});


Category and Action is mandatory and label is optional.

You can send value in Category like Calculator Name ("HomeLoan Calculator") and in Action "Slider Used" and in Label you can send the value.
