I'll put that on my next Analytics "To Do" list. :) Once you connect your AdSense to your Analytics account, AdSense shows a link to click that will bring you to your Analytics account. The connection process isn't too bad. It's just that there is so much info to look at. I can’t say that I’ve used the page overlay. I’ll put that on my next Analytics “To Do” list. :)

And in order to find anything useful, I have to drill down through several layers of pages, which is slow and frustrating, so I rarely look at it. Mostly I look at the Wordpress Stats (from the plug-in) for a quick overview, and I also use statcounter.com, which gives a lot of detail, but unlike Google Analytics, is easy to use. The one feature I like on Analytics is the page overlay, where you can see where people have clicked. I haven't hooked up Analytics to Adsense yet, so maybe I'll give that a try. I've been dragging my feet because they are on different accounts, and I figured it might be a hassle to try to combine them ...
