 * I cannot activate the Google Analytics plug in. When I try to activate it, I 
   get a message that says that I do not have sufficient permission to access the
   page.
 * I tried to register through Google Analytics itself, but it is not reading my
   site.
 * Help!

 * Did you put the code they provided in your header to sync Google Analytics with
   your site?

 * How do I access the header in WordPress? I have tried to find it, but can’t seem
   to.

 * You can download it/upload it again through your FTP client (e.g. Filezilla),
   and you can edit it in a program such as Dreamweaver, Netbeans, etc.
 * Just copy/paste the code they give you into it and upload it again

 * This sounds a bit over my head. If you don’t mind helping me, assume I know nothing(
   which is not far from the truth). Can you walk me through this? I would be eternally
   grateful.

 * Go to appearance > Editor > header.php and place the Google analytics code just
   before the closing </head> tag. Save and return to your Google analytics account
   and click **verify**.

 * I think I found my problem: I don’t have the “Editor” tab under “Appearance.”
   I suppose I am operating under some kind of limited editing option. I am part
   of a blog network at a large University.
