Best way to add Google Analytics to a Joomla!

[Atlanta-SMO]

I am having difficulties installing (and getting it to work) google analytics to Joomla! 2.5.8 site.  I have it working on some sites but then not on others even though I have installed it the same.  Is there a recommended or easy way to do this that works?

The best place to insert the analytics code is in the header.php file so it loads when the header loads.  Some people recommend putting it in the footer but if you are using the asynchronous version of the analytics code then you don't need to put it in the footer.

When you look at the source, do you see the GA snippet?

Yes but doesn't seem right for some reason... www.metroboltmi.com

Stuck it in the CSS which should overide the files right?

I've never heard of displaying javascript analytics code via CSS.  You need to either edit header.php, index.php, or footer.php and paste the code directly into one of those template files.  I recommend header but I've seen it at the beginning or end of index.php and I've seen it in the footer.
