It happens often enough because most web site owners don’t get ownership of their Google Analytics assigned to an email account to which they have control. Most times the web developer sets up access under his or her own email and never shares access with anyone else. It isn’t easy to find (such as near the Forgot Userid/Password link, hint, hint Google), but there is a link where Google provides help for those who request to regain access to the Analytics account. I’ve had to look for this link many times, so I’m posting it here for myself and for others who might need it. Please comment with your experience using this link – I’m sure there will be interesting stories to tell!
