🧠Setting up Google Analytics
See how many people visit your club website, which pages are popular, and what devices they use — all in your own free Google Analytics account.
1Create a Google Analytics account
Sign in at analytics.google.com with any Google account and create a property for your club, choosing the “Web” platform.
↓
2Add a data stream
Add a data stream for your website address. Google gives you a Measurement ID that starts with “G-”.
↓
3Paste the ID into Pavilion
Go to Settings → Integrations → Google Analytics, paste the Measurement ID, tick “Turn on tracking” and Save.
↓
4Leave “don’t count officials” ticked
This stops your own committee’s admin work from inflating the visitor numbers, so the figures reflect real members and visitors.
↓
5Check it’s working
Open your website in a normal browser (not logged in as an official) and watch the Realtime report in Google Analytics — your visit should appear within seconds.
💡 Tip: Google Analytics is free for clubs of this size, and Pavilion adds the tracking code for you — you never need to edit your theme or paste code into your pages.
