_gaq.push(
  ['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXX-1'],
  ['_trackPageview'],
  ['b._setAccount', 'UA-XXXXX-2'],
  ['b._trackPageview']
);

in this code snippet, there is a “.b”.
Where is the “.b” come from? How should I use it?

Answer 1

If you only have one account, you don’t have to use anything:

_gaq.push(["_setAccount", ......]);

From there, if you use any more accounts, you give each one a name (any name that’s valid in JS), and call its instructions like name._doThing.

You could track 8 accounts if you wanted – they just need 8 unique names, and you need to _setAccount each one to a different Google account.

Our company chose to use primary and secondary — we even give the first account a name.
