Just a short note for people that are trying to make the Google Analyticator wordpress plug-in work with a site hosted for free on 000webhost.com.

 

When you authenticate through the Plug-in settings page, you will get an error like:

 

Failed to authenticate with Google. Read this support article on Analyticator’s support forums for help.

 

It won’t work and there is no need to follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the linked support article.

The reason is that 000webhost, when using the free hosting service, does not support SSL connections. these are required by Google/the Plug-in to authenticate.

 

It seems that the only option you have is to upgrade to paid hosting… Could have guessed…
