Install on Ghost

Ghost's site-wide Code injection adds the tag to the head of every page and post.

1. Open Settings → Advanced → Code injection

   In Ghost Admin, choose the gear icon, then find Code injection under Advanced.

2. Paste the snippet into Site header

   Replace YOUR_SITE_ID with the public site ID from your site's Settings → Install card. The site ID is public and safe in browser code; never put your secret key in a page.

   <script
     defer
     src="https://metricraven.com/js/script.js"
     data-site-id="YOUR_SITE_ID"
   ></script>

   Use Site header, not Site footer or the code injection on a single post.

3. Save and open your site

   Open a page on your public domain in a private window.

Alternative: add it to your theme

On a self-hosted Ghost, or a plan that allows custom themes, you can put the tag in your theme's default.hbs instead, before {{ghost_head}}. Re-add it when you switch or update the theme.

{{!-- default.hbs in your theme --}}
<head>
    ...
    <script defer src="https://metricraven.com/js/script.js" data-site-id="YOUR_SITE_ID"></script>
    {{ghost_head}}
</head>

Notes

• Only hostnames listed in your site's Settings → General → Site domains (and their subdomains) are accepted. To also count visits on a platform address such as your-site.ghost.io, add it there; otherwise those requests are refused with domain_not_allowed.
• Your own visits to the public site count like anyone else's. To leave them out, see Exclude your visits.
• Pair it with data-goal attributes on your signup buttons to count member signups as goals.
• If you use a cookie banner, connect it with Consent & visitor IDs.

Attribute sales

To credit Ghost sales to the visits that brought the buyer, connect Stripe and follow Attribute revenue with Ghost.

Optional script attributes are listed in Install & verify. To exclude your own visits, see Exclude your visits.
