 * Just getting started with GoogleAnalytics.
    They say to embed a tracking code
   into every page of your site. I heard it should be added to the header of a page,
   but going to the edit portion of your web site pages, under the button :Appearance,
   and submenu “Header”, it only discusses the images for a header, not text.
 * Q:- how to add text into a header?

 * I suggest the GA plugin: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/)
 * It’s so much easier than adding code.
