      Hi folks

      A quick question in regards to setting up Google Analytics for a website with multiple languages on multiple domains.

      The domains that needs to be tracked are:

      • www.example.com -> English
      • www.example.se -> Swedish
      • www.example.dk -> Danish

      To my best knowledge this can be acheived in Google Analytids using 3 different setups:

      • Different accounts
      • Different properties
      • Profiles

      What would you guys consider the best approach?
      Pros and cons?

      Have a great day

      Fredrik

        Fo me, when you say, "GA for a website with multiple languages on multiple domains", then I inherently look at this as I am going to have one GA account for this website with three different properties. I do a lot by intuition, so that is just what comes naturally for me.

        You account is Example Account or Example Analytics, but it is about the Analytics for this specific content group for lack of a better descriptor: Yes, different languages on different domains, but same site - correct?

        The biggest pro for me is unless I am running three browsers open at once, I do not have to log in and out of analytics for each account to see whatever I want. (Seems simplistic, but I find it a pain). So, I can now navigate between the three domains easily, copy a filter from one to another easily, etc.

        You could have a different profile for each domain, but I really do not see a massive reason for this and by having them all under one, again it seems intuitive and to communicate they are together which could loosely help with any dupe content issue down the road. (Yes, I understand how duped content is looked at across multi languages. I just like being able to have a track back of some type that shows the sites together.)

        Hope this gives a bit of insight for you Frederik,

        Best.
