How to Add Google Analytics to Wix?

Updated: Sep 28, 2023

It is essential for the owners of any Internet resource to keep track of everything that happens on its site. The collected data will help web admins notice problems with site navigation in time, analyze the popularity of the content, and take essential steps to improve their site. The most popular tool for collecting and analyzing statistics is Google Analytics. This article will teach you how to connect a Google Analytics resource ID to a WIX site.


With Google Analytics, you can track the following data:

  • The number of page visitors.

  • Where visitors come from (devices, geo).

  • How long do they stay?

  • What keywords do they use to find your site?

To connect Google Analytics to the Wicks website, you need to follow only two steps:

  1. Get a Google Analytics tracking ID.

  2. Add a Google Analytics property to your Wix site.

Step 1

Get a Google Analytics tracking ID. To do this, create a new Google account.

Additional settings make it possible to connect Google Analytics correctly. Google Analytics 4 (new version) is automatically connected. Still, it does not have a column with Views, without which, for example, you cannot set up goals, and many other functions are missing. Therefore, we connect the old and new versions so we can switch between them later.


Enter the site URL and check the box opposite - create two Analytics (previous and new version).
