Step 1: Create a Google Analytics Account
The first step in integrating analytics with Webmaster Tools is to create a Google Analytics account. If you already have an account, you can skip this step. To create a new account, visit the Google Analytics website and follow the on-screen instructions to set up your account and obtain your tracking code.
Substep 1: Sign in to Google Analytics

Substep 2: Set up a new account
Once you are signed in, click on “Admin” in the navigation menu and select “Create Account.” Follow the prompts to enter your website details and set up your tracking code.
Step 2: Link Google Analytics with Webmaster Tools
