Google Analytics showing 0 traffic
Google Analytics is suddenly showing 0 traffic for me. Earlier it used to show around 100-150 and the various analysis. But from last 2-3 days it is showing 0. Anyone has any idea what the problem could be?
Google has changed its alogrithm for search but this is new! Have you checked whethere the properties are linked to your site.

What is the relation between Google Search Algorithms and Google Analytics ?
Did you recently remove any HTML/Javascript gadget? That could have contained the GA code. This is what I have done twice when trying to clean up the unnecessary gadgets on my blog.
I have an extension installed in my browser which allows me to block Google Analytics on any website. ( I use it to prevent my own visits to my blog being tracked. ) Whenever a site has GA installed, that extension displays an icon in the address bar showing that Analytics can be blocked on that site ( as blocking is meaningful only when it is being used.) Visiting your blog doesn't display that icon in the address bar which probably implies that analytics was not set up correctly.
The tracking code contains the following lines :
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXXXX']);
which I couldn't find in the source HTML source of your blog's home page.
Go to GA > Select your website > Admin > Tracking Info > You will see the message 'Status: Receiving Data' if GA is set up correctly.
(1) did u mean playing on the HTML field with keyboard's delete button? 
(2) generally, people go for the remove button on the screen ?
(3) in case 1 has been done, what he can do is upload the template backup.

I was talking about HTML / JavaScript gadget : Layout > Add a Gadget > HTML / JavaScript
Previously, I have put the code for the flags counter and GA in the same HTML/JS gadget. One day, I wanted to remove that flag counter. Forgetting that the same gadget contained the GA code also, I removed the entire gadget and for a few days, visits to my blog were not tracked.
Looks like a good extension can you share it please and can it be used on Mozilla
Here is the link to the Google Chrome Extension.
This extension exists for Opera and Safari also. Check out this page. Firefox is not supported.
One thing I liked about this extension is that there is no longer a need to mess up your HTMl template with too much code. One disadvantage is that too many extensions of this kind can slow down your browser. 
I changed my template recently. Could that be the reason?
Probably Yes. Earlier, you might have included that tracking code within the template itself. When you shifted to a new template, that tracking code was lost.
Include the tracking code once again and everything will be fine. 
Thanks bro for the share, I dont use the extensions in the default browser. I have kept a seperate browser for chcking the rankings etc. will use this one one on Opera.
Thanks again
You're welcome.
I liked the idea of using a separate browser for checking rankings all but I find doing it all the time.
But aren't you supposed to install this GA Blocking extension on all the browsers that you use?
No need bro, I check GA once every day for analysis and intelligence. And regarding using of seperate browser, it really helps you to chek on the rankings and especially when there is a spam visitor. Clicking a link from blogger will let the spammer know that you are visiting the site and he may spam you more. copying the link in another browser which doesnt have similar cookies protects.

But the extension I mentioned is used to prevent your visits to your blog from being tracked.
I am using Analytics and there is no change I can spot.. Though I am with self hosted WordPress along with analytics code pasted on my blogs header
I Think You are a victim of Penguin 2.0...
TF is talking about his GA account not tracking visits and not about reduced traffic from search engines.
Nope TF, the problem is something else your codes show ga properties line 531 to 544
<script type='text/javascript'> var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-29093821-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = (document.location.protocol == 'https:' ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })(); </script>I think it must be the properties. Go to GA and Admin>Property settings check whether both the options are pointing towards ur site.
If dat doesnt work there is a contact us form in GA fill that up and raise a ticket

@Ranjith if he has added it then also it should show details for past two days.
I'm not sure if I have understood what you meant.
Before creating this thread, the GA tracking code was not added to his blog. ( He probably removed it accidentally ) After creating this thread, ( and probbaly after reading my reply ) he added the code. That is why you are able to see the GA code in the HTML source of his blog.
What do you mean by showing details for the past two days?
@Ranjith ok I got you now. But is TF getting the reading now?
Looks like. I added the code to the template just now. Hope that should be enough.
OK guys then problem solved
Thanks everyone. Still it is showing 0. But the real time section responds to my visits.
(1) let it give at least 24 hours to populate the data
(2) Thanks to u too, some glitches got sorted as Google made GA smarter since my last visit.
Still it is showing 0. But the real time section responds to my visits.
That is why the second thing is called 'Real Time'
From this GA support page :
Google Analytics generally updates your reports every 24 hours, so it can take at least that long for data to appear in your account after you first install the tracking code.
