On the Google Analytics account I use, we collect analytics for multiple websites. We can see users and sessions for each website, that's great.
So far, every feature of Analytics I've come across only allows me to view information from just one site at a time, but now I'd like to see multiple sites.
What we are looking for, is a way to simultaneously view the number of users and sessions of all the websites under our account. I have google searched the problem, I've messed with every single setting I can think of. No progress.
How can we do this?
You could use Data Studio for this. You can either have separate tables on one page for all of the sites you want to report, or to make it more seamless, make a data blend to get stats from multiple sites with multiple GA accounts into one table
It is impossible to create a single view for different trackers in GA.
But you can download data from different trackers to one scheduled report in Google Spreadsheets using Google Analytics Spreadsheet Add-on https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/google-analytics-spreadsheet-add-on
Or create one new tracker and implement on all your websites.
You need to set up cross-domain measurement.
Cross-domain measurement makes it possible for Analytics to see sessions on two related sites as a single session. This is sometimes called site linking.

I have a web with different countries (languages) in different paths like
domain.tld/en-en/
domain.tld/za-en/
domain.tld/de-de/
...
They all have the same page structure, so I would like to use the same GTM for all of them. But I would like to track those pages in different Google Analytic Accounts for better overview. Is this possible in GTM, or is there a way in Google Analytics to split everything by this path-structure?
Otherwise, my workaround would be to copy the GTM-Container X-Times, which would be not good for maintenance.
I have a pretty big website, and I'm wondering if google analytics api allows me to look at how many pages were made per month. Or rather, a list of sites that were made with a date tag, that way I can transform it into a count.
No, GA will only provide you with information based on visits, if pages were created and no one visits them, then that page will be missing. Plus you're looking at this MoM, if all of your pages don't get visited during a month, then they will be missing as well. Your best bet is to use a site crawler to index all of your pages.
If you really want to capture this in GA, then consider triggering a GA event when pages are created, this is assuming the creation process is via a web interface (wordpress for example).
I'm trying to track a single users path throughout my site all the way until conversion. Is there a way to legally do this through google analytics? I'm mainly trying to see if my homepage buttons are doing as well taking people through the whole process as my inner sites processes.
Try User Explorer under Audience. You could use segments to then narrow down your search for specific users e.g. only those who accessed certain pages.
Is there something special about tracking a google analytics experiment across subdomains?
I have an experiment set up in an account which tracks a top-level domain and several sub-domains. The experiment is implemented in javascript and the experiment Id and variation are set using
cxApi.setChosenVariation(chosenVariation, opt_experimentId)
which is placed above tracking code (included via google tag manager). When creating the experiment I gave two dummy urls as the page variations and chose the 'Insert code manually' option, (although I did not insert the code as advised at https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/experiments-client-side :"The Experiment ID is the only information needed to continue and implement the experiment. The JavaScript snippet is not used.").
The experiment tracking is working for the top-level-domain, but not any of the subdomains. This seems strange because the account in which this is set up records all other tracking data successfully for all sub-domains. Does anyone have any idea what I might need to do to get the experiment tracking working in the sub-domains as well?
Thanks
I am curious if Google Analytics Content Experiments supports targeting based on the traffic source, in particular, certain Google Adwords campaigns.
For example, I have two Adwords campaigns pointed to the same destination url but would like a Content Experiment to only run for one of these two campaigns.
Even targeting the experiment based on the referring url would be helpful but I don't see an option to do so when setting up the experiment. Does anyone know if this is possible through the set up, or if I would need to create some kind of gateway that my campaigns funnel through and then get routed to the experiment URL based on the source?
Thanks!
Google does not currently provide this function by default.
I'd try https://www.optimizely.com/ (easier) and/or patching up custom bucketing code (more difficult)
