So you’ve reached the dreaded 25 account limit in Google Analytics. You will see something like the error message below:
Account Limit Reached
You have reached the limit of 25 accounts. Please reach out to your Google Analytics support contact for assistance.
I set up Google Analytics accounts for each of my clients, but I like to set it up myself instead of trying to explain to them how to set it up with their Google account, and then input the correct settings, and then copy the tracking code. I also like to be the admin on the analytics accounts so I can keep track of their progress. I will either give them admin access or set up monthly reporting to their email.
Solution
The best way to out-maneuver this limit is to create a new Google account and then create Analytics accounts until you reach the limit again. From there, set your main Google account as the administrator for each analytics account. BAM- you have successfully created more than 25 analytics accounts. You can be the admin on more than 25 in one Google account, you just can’t create more than 25 within one Google account.
Yes, this is solution, but is there no other, easier solution?
Why the hell Google limits accounts to 25 and properties (profiles) per account to 50?
Is there any reasonable explanation?
My problem is I received many shared accounts from our clients, so basically I’m admin of only 4 accounts and other 45 accounts are shared from our clients
