Hi Tempo

Hope you're liking the new features?

adCenter Analytics has been built with a flexible design and does support this scenario.  You simply have to add these different domains to the same profile (using the manage domains configuration) and add the same tracking tag to all those domains. 

They will then report under the same profile as an aggregate plus you can see the individual domain performance, as well as page level performance beneath the domains.

You can either choose to simply track all your domains under a single profile or to track them separately as different profiles. 

The manage domains setting was designed with the concept that you might want to track more than 1 domain in a single profile.

Hope that helps?

Cheers Mel

Extending Mel's comments here, yes, you can do this within a profile. You will have to have the same profile ID on the pages of these sites.

One thing you don't get today is unique user counts for just one of the sites -- will get unique users from all the pages.  So if you have a visitor visit 2 different sites in this profile, that would be 1 unique user for the whole profile.

This may not be exactly what you want for unique visitors. Recapping, today if you had 3 domains and each domain had 10 visits... you could have between 10 and 30 uniques. adCenter Analytics will combine the users and tell you the number across the entire set.

 Maybe you can post an example of 3 domains within one profile and what view of unique users you would like to have of each domain and then the set.

Helps a LOT! Great feature.

Paul...

One quick question though ... can you add two profiles to one webpage i.e. if you wanted to have one profile that is just for that site that you can give users access to reports just for that domain, and then have a second profile that tracks the network of sites that the individual site users don't have access to?

Not just yet Tempo - we are looking at adding a multiuser support scenario where the admin can assign different profile privileges to different users for the next release.

How many sites could you add to one profile? I love the idea of getting UU across my domains.

Thanks,

Niels

Hi Niels

Limit is 50 - Would you need more than that?

Cheers Mel

I want to track a few domains from a single profile (enabling me to get totals across all my sites)

I have these domains in my "Manage domains" section: eee.aaa.com bbb.aaa.com and ddd.bbb.com

When I generate my tracking code, I select "Content is on multiple sub-domains"

What do I put in for the site root, when I have both aaa.com and bbb.com ?

 In either case, the tracking code generated includes the line specific to each root, example:

         msAnalytics.CookieDomain = 'bbb.com';

If I put this tracking code on aaa.com will it mess up?

thanks 

I would also be interested in Chris B's last question.

I'll also add a scenario.

Let's say I have a site and I want to track two different sub-directories from the same root domain in two different profiles - is this possible?

Thanks,

Peter
