    Yes, it’s possible to add your Google Analytics code in a different spot within your Angular project. One common method is to inject the Google Analytics script dynamically using TypeScript. You can create a service for it.

    In the service, you can use the Renderer2 from ‘@angular/core’ to create a script element, set the ‘src’ attribute to Google Analytics URL with your tracking ID, and append this script to the ‘head’. This method keeps your code clean and does not show the script tag in the HTML file when the source code is viewed via the browser, as it will be injected into the DOM at runtime.

    This method not only helps keep your code cleaner but also provides more control over when and how the Google Analytics script is loaded. Please remember that altering the placement of the tracking code can sometimes affect data collection, so you need to monitor your data to ensure everything is working as expected.
