Since a lot of bloggers read WebUpd8, we like to occasionally post about web related stuff. Here is a trick which should help a lot of people owning a Facebook fan page (might also work on Wordpress.com, Myspace and so on).

Using the form provided by webdigi.co.uk, all you have to do is insert an invisible image into your a FBML Facebook page to be able to use Google Analytics.

You’ve created a Facebook fan page and people are frequenting your page. But do you really know how many people visit your page, what areas are popular and what parts of the world your visitors come from? Facebook Insights shows some demographic information on your page, but is limited to information about interactions with your fans.
How to Add Google Analytics to Your Facebook Fan Page
We launched our Facebook fan page earlier this month and as with all Facebook pages only Facebook Insights program is available to page administrators. Facebook Insights shows demographic details and interactions on your pages BUT limited to show information of fans only. It is far less sophisticated and comprehensive when compared to the free Google Analytics. One of the limitations of Facebook Fan pages is that you can only run limited Javascript on it and Google Analytics needs Javascript code included to correctly track visitors. We have successfully managed to get ALL functions of Google Analytics working on our Facebook fan page (including visitor statistics, traffic sources, visitor country, keyword searches with all other powerful reporting & maps overlays etc).
