Looking for an easy way to set up Google Analytics on WordPress multisite network? The MonsterInsights plugin makes it easier than ever to set up Google Analytics on all of your sites. Let’s take a look at how to set up Google Analytics on your multisite network.

The Problem With Google Analytics and WordPress Multisite

WordPress multisite can save you a lot of time in managing multiple websites, but it also causes some unique problems – one of which is installing analytics.
