Setting Up Google Analytic with Sub Folder Sites

[daracreative]

What is the best way of setting up Google Analytic for a website that has many sub folders?

The main site is example.com and it has 40 sub folder sites like example.com/uk example.com/France etc etc

Would it be advised to track a single domain in Google Analytic then create filters for the sub folder sites. Filters > Include traffic from > Sub directories

Also with this method is it possible to view overall incoming website stats for everything?

Previous experience would be great with this thanks

With profiles in GA, you can have the one catch-all, then have separate profiles for each subfolder, if you like. This might make digestion of metrics easier.

I would use one account for the whole domain. In the reporting tools you can filter out data based on things like "URL contains France".

Of course you can do it the other way (many accounts using filters, later collate the data) but I prefer to have all my data in one place where I can then tease out the info I'm after.
