Google Analytics
RedBubble allows you to use Google Analytics to track and report on visitors to your profile and works.
To use this feature, you will need an account with Google Analytics.
If you already use Google Analytics, you can add your RedBubble profile and works pages to your Google Analytics account using your "Web Property ID".
Getting set up with Google Analytics
- Create a new Google Analytics account, or add a new profile to your existing Google Analytics account
- When asked for your website URL, you can enter www.redbubble.com
- Your account name can be of your choosing, eg "John's RedBubble"
- When you get to the Google Analytics terms of service page, click on "create new account" and then you can go straight to "save and finish", ignoring the blocks of code they provide. You're now good to go.
- You don't need to tell Google Analytics your specific RedBubble profile name or details - just add your Web Property ID in your MyBubble and RedBubble does the rest for you.
How do I find my Web Property ID?
- Log in to Google Analytics at http://www.google.com/analytics
- From the Overview page, select the account that has the profile for the Web Property ID you're looking for, as the code is profile-specific.
- Select the profile from the accounts overview page.
- From that profile's actions column, click edit
- At the top right of the 'Main Website Profile Information' box, click check status
- Your Web Property ID will be displayed on the left, and should look something like UA-XXXXXXX-X
Where do I enter my Web Property ID on RedBubble?
- Once logged in to RedBubble, you will land in "MyBubble"
- On the left hand menu, select "Account Settings"
- On the next left hand menu, select "Google Analytics"
- Enter your Web Property ID into the field
- Click "Save Changes"
I already have a Google Analytics account, how do I add RedBubble?
- For existing Google Analytics users you can go to your Google Analytics overview page and click on "Add new profile".
- In the page that opens, select "add a profile for a new domain" and enter the Redbubble address in the box.
- Remember to click finish
How do I cancel my Google Analytics association?
- Log into RedBubble, and go to MyBubble
- On the left hand menu, select "Account Settings"
- On the next left hand menu, select "Google Analytics"
- Remove your Web Property ID from the field
- Click "Save Changes"
After initial set-up, it can take up to 24 hours for Google Analytics to display reliable data.

What if I don't want to use Google Analytics?
Not a problem! You can still view basic stats on each of your own works below the tags on each work page:
