Hi Paul, Yeah that plugin didn’t get updated since 2009 but it still works fine with current WordPress. We checked 3 WordPress plugins for this and found that one to be the easiest to use. The one you recommended is also good and will work just fine. Thank you for the suggestion.

Hi
Thanks for this hint, I wish you had written it a few months ago.
I ended up spending hours researching how to to this and ended up using a different plug in, mainly because the one you mention had not been updated since 2009 (according to stats).
I ended up finding GWO4WP found at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gwo4wp/ which was updated last in 2011 (according to stats).
I expect it is similar to the one you recommend and I found this one to work perfectly.
Just some food for thought.
Paul

Google website optimizer is amazing. I use this on a few of my sites, especially when I release a new product.
