Question

I am trying to set up a sub domain include filter in google analytics. I am a little confused about how to write the filter pattern for my sub domain which is going to be http://www.somesite.com/de

All of the tutorials show it set up like this: sub1.website.com. but my url structure is different. Am I missing the point here any help appreciated.

Here is a screen of what I am trying to set up:

Answer 1

You’ll need two separate filters to accomplish this.

• Hostname: The full domain name of the page requested. For example: for http://www.google-analytics.com/requestURL/index.html?sample=text the hostname is http://www.google-analytics.com

• Request URI: Includes the relative URL, or piece of the URL after the hostname. For example: for http://www.google-analytics.com/requestURL/index.html?sample=text the Request URI is /requestURL/index.html?sample=text
