How can I track US store traffic using Google Analytics?

Topic summary

Merchant using Shopify Markets runs a primary UK store on example.co.uk and serves US customers via a separate domain (example.com), localized with the Geolocation and Translate & Adapt apps.

Problem: Both domains share the same Google Analytics (GA) tracking code. The poster believes traffic from the US domain may not be recorded correctly in GA because it’s a different domain and says they can’t set a separate GA tracking code.

Request: Advice on how to track traffic and performance for the US store (example.com) in GA, potentially distinguishing it from the UK store.

Additional input: Another participant reports having the same need.

Status: No solutions or best practices provided yet; the question remains open. (GA = Google Analytics; Shopify Markets = Shopify’s multi-market/domain selling feature.)

Hi,

My main store is on one domain (example.co.uk), but I use Shopify Markets to serve visitors from the USA a separate domain (example.com). I then use the Geolocation app and Translate and Adapt app to localise the experience.

I am having an issue on how to track traffic to my USA store (example.com) in Google Analytics. As far as I’m aware I’m unable to specify separate GA tracking code? My USA site still has the same tracking code as my main/UK store (example.co.uk), but data from my US site (example.com) won’t be registered in GA since it is a different domain.

Can anyone recommend the best solution so that I can track data from my USA store in GA?

Thanks in advance!
