With a wordpress blog the easiest way is to use a plugin, search inside your dashboard for simple Google analytic etc.
Activate and then add your analytics ID number.
The other way is by adding the whole code to the header file in the editor, paste the code in before the closing body tag.

I use the Ultimate GA plugin for 90% of my sites:

It has not been updated for a while, but it still works like a charm

You can add it anywhere. Go to apereance, editor, footer.php and add it there. Or just simple add a text widget in your sidebar, add the code there and save

I really would not use anything associated with Google on any of my sites, you are just giving them extra info that they need not know.

Yeah a wordpress plugin is the easiest way to go. Just go to "Plugins" and then "add new" and search for Google Analytics etc.

Hope it helps.

Search for Google analytics for wordpress in the plug ins. install, activate and punch in your code. The plug in is customizable and gives some great info
