I recently updated my blog template and a couple of days later (no surprise there!) find that my hits as recorded on Google Analytics (not the analytics within Blogger) have gone down to zero.
Checking the status for the blog(s) on Google Analytics was pointless, because GA was saying it was receiving data. Which it wasn't.
This is a typical occurrence whenever you modify the blogger HTML via the design and layout options: the Google Analytics code needs to be re-inserted into the <head> </head> tags to keep working.
Because Blogger in Draft now has an updated interface, things have moved around. More fun. In order to access the HTML edit mode in the new navigation in Blogger in Draft, do the following:
1. Log into Blogger, and navigate to your dashboard.
2. Select "Template" on the left-hand side menu.
3. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the template page, and select: "Edit Template HTML."
4. find the </head> tag, and just above it paste your Google Analytics tracking code.
Voilá.
