Question

So Im using a single google analytics code for multiple domains. But now the domain owners want to see the stats themselves by logging in. My question is, is it possible to give access to my account and only have the stats show for their domain? Or do I have to create seperate accounts for each domain and add their tracking code along with mine on the pages?

Answer 1

Yes, but this depends on what you have done already.

Are you using the same tracking code/ID on multiple sites? If so, you have completely corrupted your data, and it is now essentially useless to you. You should start over.

Or, are you using multiple sites under one Google Analytics account? If that is the case, there is hope for you:

Simply log into Google Analytics, and at the bottom you will see “User Manager”. Click that, and you can click “Add User” at the top right.

There are two kinds of “Access Type”:

• View reports only
• Account administrator

Account administrators can do everything in an account. You are an account administrator.

For viewing reports only, you can assign users specific domains. This is how you would let your clients in to view their reports.

Personally, I find it best to create a separate Google Analytics account for each client. This way, if they ever decide to pick a new person to do their web work, they can just take the whole account with them.
