Let's start

In one of our previous article, we talked about adding multiple google analytics tags. Since it is a little complicated process when you are not good at JavaScript codes. In this, we will show you how to setup multiple google analytics tracking codes using Google Tag Manager.

Remember that, we are not going to add multiple same analytics tags but multiple different analytics tags. We will be using Google Tag Manager to send data to multiple Google Analytics account from a single page.

Follow the steps below to do this. We are assuming that you already have an existing pageview tag in tag manager.

1. Create Separate Variables for Each Property

Open your existing pageview tag and copy it.
