In order to gather analytics from your SharePoint environment, you’ll need to sign up to Google Analytics (GA) and identify your SharePoint site with a tracking code. Go to https://analytics.google.com and sign up or sign in.
Can you see Google Analytics for other websites?
You can’t see Google Analytics data for another website unless the person who owns the website gives you access, or shows it to you. To get an estimate of how many visitors a website you don’t own gets, you can look at other metrics.
How do I Analyse Google Analytics from a website?

Mainly targeted to public sites, Google Analytics can also be used to monitor your SharePoint or Office365 intranet. It will not only help you understand if employees are using the company intranet but also how they are using it and if anything needs to be improved.
How can I tell if Google Analytics is installed?
If Google Analytics is installed, you should see the snippet (like: UA-453782-0) highlighted. You might need to scroll down to find it. If it’s not installed, you will see “UA-000000-0” or “UA- “, either way, you need to go the next step and install Google Analytics.

I recommend clicking the small speech bubble icon at the bottom of Page Analytics. This allows you to understand where people navigate to next from the page you’re currently viewing.
