Connect Google Analytics to Moz Pro

If you have a GA (Google Analytics) tracking code on your site you can hook this up to your Moz Pro Campaign. Don't worry, you don't need to fiddle around with website code or anything complicated like that. You just need to have admin access to the Google Analytics profile you’re wanting to connect.

With Google Analytics connected to Moz Pro, your Campaign will gather even more insights for your site within the Site Traffic and Landing Pages sections of your Campaign.

Please note: To connect Google Analytics to Moz Pro you'll need to be the administrator of the GA account, and you also have to be logged into the Google account that manages that GA account.
