 * Hi All
    I want to install GA on my site. Does it matter if I do it manually with
   Filezilla or a plugin like Ultimate GA? I mean using a plugin is obviously the
   easiest but are there any reasons not to do it this way and will I get the same
   reports from GA? Sorry if this is a dumb question.
 * Thanks in advance.
    Johnny

 * Hi Johnny, The benefit of using a plugin for GA is that you won’t have to do 
   anything if you change themes. Otherwise, I don’t think there’s any reason that
   one way is better than the other.
