It is worth to mention that WordPress doesn’t have Google Analytics support out-of-the-box. 
To add the Google Analytics code for your WordPress website you need to relay either on the WordPress theme or plugin.
Once you installed the plugin, please navigate to the Settings section in the WordPress dashboard.
From the Settings section select Google Analytics Setup and add your tracking 
code. From now on, on all your website pages you will have the tracking code 
enabled.
Also check <a href="https://github.com/dejanbatanjac/ga-analytics" rel="nofollow ugc">GA Analytics on Github</a>. 
NOTE: It requires at least WordPress 4.5.
Here is the <a href="https://www.google.com/analytics" rel="nofollow ugc">link to Google Analytics</a>.

GA Analytics

A handy way to insert full Google Analytics tracking code on all pages.

</ul>
<h3>🛠️ Technical SEO</h3>
All the basics you need, without the bloat. Most SEO plugins bury essential features under endless settings. SEO Engine gets straight to the point—giving you settings only for what actually matters.
<ul>
<li>Smart Sitemaps</li>
<li>IndexNow (Bing, Yandex and Naver are pinged the moment you publish)</li>
<li>Robots.txt Editor</li>
<li>Canonical URLs</li>
<li>Meta Tags</li>
<li>Structured Data</li>
</ul>
<h3>🪄 Magic Fix</h3>
Most plugins flag SEO issues; very few actually fix them. Magic Fix is SEO Engine’s AI-powered fixer — it sits next to each detected issue as a quiet, in-context affordance. Click it, and AI generates a concrete suggestion you can review before anything is written to your post. No bulk “fix everything” button that rewrites your site behind your back; every change is shown to you as a search/replace diff first.
Powered by AI Engine — bring your own provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.). All suggestions are generated in the post’s language (Polylang and WPML supported).
Internal Links — section-aware suggestions:
<ul>
<li>Extracts keywords from the current post, then builds a candidate pool from the same category, same tags, and keyword search</li>
<li>AI ranks the most relevant related posts and proposes link placements split by section: Introduction, Body, Conclusion</li>
<li>Multiple placement strategies per target — link existing text (preferred), add a short parenthetical, or insert a new sentence</li>
<li>You pick which option (or none) to apply per suggested target post</li>
<li>Polylang and WPML aware: only candidates in the same language; translations of the current post are excluded</li>
</ul>
ALT Text — contextual generation:
<ul>
<li>Scans post content for <code><img></code> tags missing or with empty <code>alt</code> attributes</li>
<li>Generates ALT using post title, content excerpt, image filename, and attachment title/caption as context</li>
<li>Constrained to short, plain functional descriptions (no “stunning”, “tranquil”, or “Image of…”)</li>
<li>Updates the existing <code><img></code> tag in place — preserves all other attributes</li>
<li>Up to 5 images per pass to keep the review surface manageable</li>
</ul>
Grammar & Typos — HTML-aware:
<ul>
<li>AI returns precise search/replace pairs with 3-5 words of surrounding context</li>
<li>Inline HTML inside the corrected phrase (<code></code>, <code></code>, links) is preserved exactly</li>
<li>Each correction is shown before it’s applied; no blind rewrite of your prose</li>
</ul>
Title & Excerpt:
<ul>
<li>Rewrite titles to your configured length range (default 30-75 chars) without losing the meaning</li>
<li>Generate missing excerpts from content, or rewrite existing ones to a healthy 80-160 chars</li>
</ul>
External Links:
<ul>
<li>Suggests authoritative external references (Wikipedia and similar) for relevant in-content terms</li>
<li>Wraps existing phrases as links — never invents text</li>
</ul>
Featured Image:
<ul>
<li>Generates a featured image with AI when a post is missing one</li>
<li>Uploaded to your media library with proper title, description, and ALT text, then set as the post thumbnail</li>
</ul>
<h3>🚦 Redirections & 404</h3>
A focused redirect manager and 404 monitor that pair naturally: most 404s should become redirects, and the workflow is built around that.
Redirect Manager:
<ul>
<li>Exact-path redirects with 301, 302, 307, 308, and 410 Gone</li>
<li>Hit counter and last-hit timestamp on every rule, so you know which ones are useful</li>
<li>Sub-millisecond lookup on the front-end (object-cached, hashed, deferred writes)</li>
<li>Static assets (images, CSS, JS, fonts) skipped automatically — no log bloat</li>
<li>Optional auto 301 when a published post or page slug changes (off by default)</li>
<li>Regex match type with capture groups for advanced rewrites</li>
</ul>
404 Monitor:
<ul>
<li>Aggregated log — one row per unique URL, with hit count, first/last seen, and last referer</li>
<li>One-click “Convert to Redirect” from any 404 entry</li>
<li>Crawler filter so the log stays focused on real visitors</li>
<li>Path exclusions with wildcards (e.g. <code>/feed*</code>, <code>/wp-admin/*</code>)</li>
<li>Daily auto-prune with configurable retention</li>
</ul>
<h3>🧠 Intelligence Features</h3>
The entire SEO Engine has full MCP (Model Context Protocol) support, so everything can be queried via ChatGPT or Claude. Intelligence features are included in the Free version.
