3. In your Webflow dashboard, navigate to the Project Settings by clicking on the gear icon in the lower-left corner.
4. Select the Integrations tab on the left-hand sidebar.
5. Scroll down until you find the Google Analytics section.
6. Click on "Connect Google Analytics" or "Reconnect Google Analytics" if you had previously connected an account.
7. A pop-up window will appear where you can sign in to your Google account that has access to your Analytics account. Enter your credentials and click "Next."
8. You'll then be asked to allow Webflow to manage your Google Analytics data. Click "Allow" to proceed.
9. You'll be redirected back to the Webflow dashboard, where you should see a dropdown menu labeled "Google Analytics." Click on it and select your desired tracking ID from the list.
10. Once you've selected the correct tracking ID, click "Save Changes" to apply the settings.
11. Webflow will now automatically include the necessary tracking code on all your published pages, and Google Analytics will start tracking your website's data.
It's important to note that it may take some time for Google Analytics to start gathering data. Additionally, changes made to your Webflow website may take a few hours to be reflected in your Analytics account.
