I can has Fix.
- From HubPages Help and Learning Center -
We recommend the following settings:
Website’s URL: hubpages.com/profile/YOURPROFILENAMEHERE
Note, if your username has a space, use %20 in its place (e.g. profile/YOUR%20NAME). If, due to another odd character, your profile name doesn’t work, don’t worry; you only really need the UA code which you’ll enter in to your affiliate settings.
-------------------
The problem is that you WILL receive an Invalid Input Error and CANNOT advance thru the first page.
The Website URL is ONLY looking for the Domain, so it should look like this instead:
Website’s URL: hubpages.com
You will need to modify your GA Account *AFTER* it is created to reflect /profile/YOURPROFILENAMEHERE
- As noted from the GA Help Forum
STEP 1 - when you are initially signing up.. there is the box with http or https to select..leave as http
and enter hubpages.com in the section where you enter the rest of it
---
In other words, you only need domain url in there..
---
STEP 2 - Once you have the account setup.. then you will have to edit the Main Website Profile Information under Profile Settings.. and enter your Website Url as hubpages.com/profile/YOURPROFILENAMEHERE

Just verified and received my UA #

Its saying my Google Analytics ID is supposed to have an extra # at the end when I try to add it. However, when I got into my google anayltics account to confirm this, I don't see no extra number, its just UA and 8 numbers following it. So I don't understand? Does Hubpages want me to add a dash...

Hi there! Tried setting up my google analytics account earlier but I got stuck in the Property Set-up Section. The error said that "default URL is invalid" (attached snip shot). Any idea how to fix this? Thanks!

I am part of the HubPages ad program, so the amount I earn via adsense is lower than what I usually earn via HP ads. But yesterday, 19 April 2015, I noticed invalid click activity.
