Adding Google Analytics to WordPress blog (for new-bies)
1.
Login to admin area of your blog. You can do this by visiting http://yourblogname.com/wp-admin/
2.
On the left side menu, select “Appearance”.
3.
In that select “Editor”
4.
Here now we need to paste our code immediately before the “<\body>” tag.
5.
Most probably you will find it into “Footer.php”.
6.
In my case I was using a custiom template where “<\body>” was found in the “index.php”.
7.
Locate the “<\body>” tag and paste your Google Analytics code just before it.
8.
Click on “Update File”
9.
Once again make sure your analytics tracking code is before the <\body> tag.
10.
Wait for 24 hours till you start seeing reports.

I know exactly what you want to say.
In < \body> I have used backward slash instead of forword. But if you use forword one, it doesn’t appear on web page.
In your post also you have tried to put it but it just disappeared.
