Adding Real-Time JavaScript to Your Website
Enabling Website Analytics real-time stats alone is not enough to collect data from your entire Website. You must also add the real-time JavaScript to each page you want to track. So, if you want real-time statistics for your entire Website, you must include the real-time JavaScript on every page of your website.
Finding the Real-Time JavaScript
First, you need to locate the real-time JavaScript.
To Find the Real-Time JavaScript
- Log in to your Account Manager.
- Click Site Analytics.
- Next to the account you want to use, click Launch.
- Click the domain name you want to use.
- Click Settings, and then click Real-Time Reporting.

Adding Real-Time JavaScript to Your Website
When real-time stats are enabled, you must include a code on the bottom of each page you want to track. The codes are identical JavaScripts you can use for each tracked page. Use Website Analytics to generate your real-time codes.
To Add Real-Time JavaScript to Your Website
- Open a text editing program, such as Notepad.
- Log in to the Web hosting account provided to you by your hosting provider.

.htmlfile of the Web page you want to add the real-time script to. - In the
<body>portion of the file, insert the script before the</body>tag at the bottom of your HTML page. - Save the file.
