: How to make google analytics report on two domains as though they are one site? We have a main site that Google analytics is currently running fine on (www.ourcompany.com). We have a page

You need to either set the domain name to 'none' OR remove the domain hash otherwise visits from one of the sites won't get tracked:

Either:

_gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'none']);


Or:

_gaq.push(['_setAllowHash', false]);


You should use the first operation when you are tracking across domains but not across sub-domains. If you need to track across sub-domains as well then you should use the second approach.

You also might want to use the linker so that the GA cookies are transferred across to the other domain when a user moves onto it from a link in the other site:

_gaq.push(['__setAllowLinker', true]);


However, the cookies won't be available from one domain on the other if the user enters from a source other than one of your sites. This is because GA uses first party cookies.
