Step 1: Log in to your Blogger Dashboard > Take a Backup
Step 2: Navigate to Settings > Remove Google Analytics Property ID > Save
Step 3: Go to Theme > Edit HTML
Step 4: Search For Analytics (Remove google analytics code if it is available) [Might be available near <head> or </head>]
Step 5: Log in to your Google Analytics Account > Choose the site > Admin > Tracking info > Tracking Code > Copy the code

It will look like this

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-*********-*"></script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'UA-*********-*');
</script>

Step 6: Replace <script async src=”https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-*********-*”></script> in your Google Analytics code with below Code
Step 7: In the below code change the Tracking Code UA-*********-* with your Google Analytics tracking code

<script type='text/javascript'>//<![CDATA[
var lazyanalisis=!1;window.addEventListener("scroll",function(){(0!=document.documentElement.scrollTop&&!1===lazyanalisis||0!=document.body.scrollTop&&!1===lazyanalisis)&&(!function(){var e=document.createElement("script");e.type="text/javascript",e.async=!0,e.src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-*********-*";var a=document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];a.parentNode.insertBefore(e,a)}(),lazyanalisis=!0)},!0);
//]]></script>

Step 8: Paste the code above </body> > Save
