Hugo ships with prebuilt internal templates for Google Analytics tracking, including both synchronous and asynchronous tracking codes.
## Configuring Google Analytics
Provide your tracking id in your configuration file, e.g. config.yaml.
googleAnalytics = "UA-123-45"
## Example
Include the internal template in your templates like so:
{{ template "_internal/google_analytics.html" . }}
For async include the async template:
{{ template "_internal/google_analytics_async.html" . }}
