Hello,
I'm implementing Google Analytics to a personal website of mine. Wondering where I should place the GA javascript tag. Is it recommended to place it above or below the fold?

Re: GA JS tag placement
It depends. If your website speed performance is good then I would place is right after the opening <body> tag for a better chance to capture analytics data in quick bounce cases. If your website load performance is not so good, I would place it before the closing </body> tag. This way the GA tag fires up after web page content was loaded.
