Adding a user to Google Analytics can have several benefits – namely the ability to have others help you interpret your data. The process of adding a user to Google Analytics can be a little tricky due to Google’s not-so-user-friendly admin interface. Here’s a breakdown of steps and a video to help:
- Sign into Google Analytics (http://analytics.google.com)
- Click on “Admin” (upper right)
- Click on the “users” tab
- Click on the “+New User” button
- Enter the new user’s email address (the address entered must be associated with a Google Account)
- Select a role level (Administrator will be necessary if you want the person to create custom reports and/or goals for you)
- Click “Create User”
The next time that user logs into Google Analytics, your site’s data will be available for them to access.
Here’s a video that shows the above process in Google Analytics:
