Integrating GoSquared with your Website
To monitor your site's traffic with GoSquared, all you need to do is place your GoSquared Tracking Code (GSTC) in your website's HTML just before the closing </body> tag. In order for GoSquared to track your visitors across your whole site, you should make sure the tracking code is installed on all of your website's pages.
You can find your GSTC by visiting GoSquared Settings and clicking the "Tracking Code" tab.
If you added a website to GoSquared on or after February 3rd 2010, you should have received an email with details of the website you registered along with a unique GSTC.

Manual Installation
Manually integrating GoSquared with your website is easier than you may think.
Note: You'll need access to your website's source code (the HTML) to integrate GoSquared in this way.
- Go to Settings, and choose the site you need from the sidebar on the left.
- Go to the "Tracking Code" tab for the selected site, and copy your GSTC from the text field. Make sure you copy the whole GSTC - leaving out any of it will likely stop if from working.
- With your tracking code copied, access your website's source code (HTML) with the software program you normally use (such as DreamWeaver, Coda, Espresso, or other). Paste your GoSquared Tracking Code into your site's HTML just before the closing </body> tag.
- Note: You need to install the GSTC on all pages of your site. If your site has many pages, you will probably have a template system set up, or include a global header and footer file. If so, it will likely be best for you to paste your tracking code into a file included on all of your website's pages.
