Google Analytics - storage period

One of the disadvantages of Google analytics over other web analytics tool is that the storage period of your analytics data is just for 25 months. This is very sufficient for most Google analytics users. However, if we wish to retain data for longer period we just need to modify a single line of the Google Analytics Tracking Code (GATC). The additional code that you need to add is highlighted in bold below.

<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
try {
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxx-1");
pageTracker._setLocalRemoteServerMode();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}
</script>
