important UPDATE
Since Spring 2010 Blogger has introduced "Stats" on the Admin interface for blogs. Google Analytics of course offers far more data and in-depth analysis, but for most users, the basic "Stats" information may be sufficient. The nice workaround by Dirk Einecke though is still working if you want to paste the Google Analytics code into you websites HTML...

Best practice for Bloggers to paste the Google Analytics Code into your blogspot site.
That should be it, Google usually takes a bit of time to start tracking. Wait a day or so.
Happy go lucky.
- Open the blogger admin
- got to Layout - Site Elements
- Create a new gadget, best at the bottom of the site elements
- Select HTML/Javascript as the type of widget
- DO NOT give a title because then visitors will see nothing of your gadget containing your Google Analytics code. Repeat, leave the title EMPTY!
