Using Google Analytics (Users Activity Tracker) in ASP.NET


Introduction

Any website owner love to see the website log details like how many user are logged, locations of user the graphical representation of user's activity throughout entire websites. Actually there are couples of way to create such projects. Website owner also can see the server log file to get such information but log file is very-very low level activity tracker because we can't see there the graphical representation of value. For such work GOOGLE ANALYTICS is very cool. Let's implement it for our domain. 

Perquisite

We should have the following things: 
1. Google Account
2. Personal Domain Name
3. Hosting Server

Screenshots

I am including screenshots here because it is very easy to implement. 
 

In above image we are opening a GOOGLE web page 'www.google.com/analytics'. 
 

In above image, we are opening our account which is already been created as given below also. 
 
 

In above image, I am choosing 'Add a Profile for a new domain' because I have already created but you will have different screen if you are at very first. Click on Continue after selection. 
 

In above image, GOOGLE will generate some JavaScript code which we have to use in our website in the 'head' section. If you are using MasterPage in website then you must paste this in MasterPage only. 

In above image, all the domain names are listed which I have been created. Now to see the statistics of your website visits globally, you have to click on 'View report'.

Lambda two tables and three tables inner join code samples

In this blog post you will learn inner join using lambda queries. There will be two samples, in first sample you will see how you can join two tables and in second sample you will see how you can extend even further to join three tables and so on. I will sample in-memory data, but the same implementation will work with IQueryable (lazy query) too. Here's the code snippet:- namespace ConsoleApp1 {     class Program     {         static void Main()         {             var table1 = new List<Table1>();             table1.Add( new Table1 { Id = 1, Name = "Name 1" , Address = "Address 1" });             table1.Add( new Table1 { Id = 2, Name = "Name 2" , Address = "Address 2" });  ...
