Bad idea connecting to Google Analytics?

You are being paranoid, we have had almost all of our accounts in Moz and connected to Analytics accounts for as long as I can remember and never had an issue.

Yes I agree, you are probably being a bit too cautious.

Like VERB I too have had my Moz account linked to analytics for some time and had no problems at all. They compliement each other well and will give you added insight into your data sets and site architecture/content to make additional/more informed decisions.

Ok, let me put it another way. Will Google be able to make a connection between my sites and the fact that I am using MOZ by linking to Analytics.

You do seem really worried about this. Sooooo, to set any fears you have over connecting with Moz aside, I decided to go straight to the horses mouth..... well a helpful support LiveChat agent with the Google Analytics team who then emailed me this answer....

Hi Tim,
I hope you are well.
Just FYI with regards to third party apps and GA, we allow 3rd party integration with GA API so this should be no problem!
Hope this helps!
Kate In other words - It is safe to do!
