How To Test Google Analytics

‍

Here is a step by step tutorial to test if your Google Analytics account is working or not:

If you want to test your Google Analytics account, head over to Reports in the left pane.
Find and select Realtime within the Reports tab.
The Realtime report shows you the live activities happening on your website.
If you can see any user activity here, that is an indication that Google Analytics is working.
In the above example, you can see 14 users per minute in the last 30 minutes. This means the GA account in the example is working and the data is flowing from the website.
