I just installed mine today, but it was very easy to install and get the analytics code via Google.com etc.

For example, an inlink was pointing to a page on one of my sites that had previously been used to show info about the Lions Club. Instead of forwarding to my home page, I created a page about the local Lions Club and forwarded the link to that page.

A shortcut that is not as elegant/precise, is to redirect all 404 errors to your main page. Not sure if all hosting providers offer this.

Perhaps doing both is a good thing.

Hand code/redirect whatever pages you find, and auto redirect those you don’t.

It’s a great tool with lots of info.
