Google Analytics - 2 Domains - 1 Website

    I have 2 domains that point to the same website (www.chemdoc.ie and www.chemdoc.co.uk)

    The .ie is the main domain and the .co.uk was only setup recently.

    The website is contained in the public_html folder of the .ie domain and the public_html folder of the .co.uk domain is symlinked (I think that is the right term) to the .ie's folder.

    We are going setting up Googel Analytics on the site in the next few days. I presume I will be able to see the total visitors fine. However, will I be able to see if individual visitors came through the .ie or the .co.uk domain ?

    Thanks in advance

    The short answer and solution: to combine the sites they would have to share the same code. then you can use a filter under the combined view separate the sites via their unique URL's the .ie and .co.uk
