Hello Everyone,

I want to track more than 100 sub domains/inner pages at a time with the help of Google Analytics. For example, I want to track a job/employment related website which consist of more than 200 employers and job seekers (approximately). Say if the job seeker and employers registers an account and the website automatically creates seperate web pages with page name for them. I would like to know whether it is possible to track those people with the help of Google Analytics Account?

Waiting for the valuable reply..

Thanks,

Emma

Short version: yes — you can track hundreds (or thousands) of dynamically created user pages in Google Analytics, but don’t try to create a separate Goal for every account. Goals are for a small number of business-level conversions; creating per-account goals quickly runs into platform limits and maintenance headaches. [UA goals are limited to 20 per reporting view]. ()

Practical, scalable pattern (works in GA4 and was the right approach for Universal Analytics): send a stable, non‑PII account identifier with every hit (a numeric or hashed account_id), then surface that value as a reporting field — in GA4 send it as an event parameter or user property and register it as a custom dimension; in Universal Analytics use a custom dimension (or User‑ID for authenticated cross‑device tracking). That lets you build segments, custom reports, and audience filters without creating hundreds of Goals. See GA4 custom definitions for event/user parameters. ()

For very large cardinality or deep per‑account analysis, export raw events to BigQuery and run SQL queries (no UI goal-count limits, no sampling). GA4’s BigQuery export is available for standard properties and makes per‑account joins, funnels and lifetime calculations practical at scale. ()

Important cautions: do not send PII (names, emails, SSNs) to Google Analytics — use an internal numeric ID or a one‑way hash and document it in your privacy policy. Also note that Google moved to GA4 as the primary product (Universal Analytics stopped normal processing in 2023), so new implementations should target GA4. () (https://blog.google/products/ads-commerce/upgrade-to-google-analytics-4-before-july-1/)

Context for the thread: was right to point at identifying users; the practical takeaway for and others is to capture a non‑PII account ID in the data layer/tag, register it as a custom/user dimension, and rely on segments, custom reports or BigQuery for per‑employer / per‑jobseeker analytics rather than creating a Goal per page.

If you are talking about User Id on Google analytics. apart from that No Idea.

but i have shared how to monitor user flow of your website on Google Analytics Audience section.

Audience ----> User Flow.

there you can find how many of them were visited the web pages.

Kind Regards

You might want to check Google's help pages on to see if it applies to your case.

Google Analytics will allow you to monitor sites under your control.

Pages can be tracked by page title, but can you guarantee the title will be unique? What happens when different people sign up using identical names?

@ LaxLoafer - Yeah! It is possible to track each and every individual page with the help of page title via setting Goal. But, i want to know the possibilities of setting Goal for huge quantity of pages, because if we want to set goal for 50 to 100 pages in manual means easy, however, is it possible to set goal for more than 500 pages in manual? Else, is there any other options available to track pages without setting Goal?
