| Can the google analytics do not calculate when I visit my own website? | geoutd | 6/13/12 6:04 AM | I have noticed that the google analytics also calculates whenever I visit my own website from my own computer. Can I set the google analytics not to consider any visiits from a specific computer? |

Simply add the following lines in your hosts file: 127.0.0.1 http://www.google-analytics.com |
