How to see GA4 traffic for all your websites in one place
Gleamworthy · October 25, 2026
Google Analytics 4 organizes data by property, and each website usually gets its own. That’s the right design for analysis: every site has its own events, conversions, and settings. But if you run several websites, it means there’s no single screen that shows how all of them are doing.
Here are four ways to get that overview, from free and fiddly to simple.
1. Switch properties in Google Analytics
The built-in option is the property picker at the top of Google Analytics. It works, and it’s free, but it’s one property at a time. Comparing five sites means five rounds of switching, and remembering numbers as you go.
Best for: occasional checks on one or two sites.
2. Build a Looker Studio report
Google’s free Looker Studio can connect to several GA4 properties in one report, and blend their data into combined charts and tables.
It’s flexible, and you can share the report with a team. The trade-offs: building a good report takes time, blended data has its own rules and limits, and reports can be slow to load. It also lives in a browser tab, so you still have to go and open it.
Best for: teams that need a shared, customized dashboard.
3. Write your own script with the Data API
The Google Analytics Data API lets you query any property you can access. A short script can loop through your properties and print totals.
You get full control, but you also take on everything else: OAuth sign-in, token storage, quota handling, time zones, and the subtle rules of GA4 metrics. For example, you can’t add up daily user counts to get a weekly total (we explain why in Why you can’t add up daily users in GA4).
Best for: developers who want a custom pipeline anyway.
4. Use a menu bar app
Synopsy is a Mac app built for exactly this overview. Connect your Google account once, and it shows every GA4 property you can access, across all your Analytics accounts, as cards in a single dashboard, with a combined total on top. The total sits in your menu bar, and a click shows the rest.
It handles the hard parts for you: it queries totals for the whole range instead of summing days, uses each property’s own time zone, and shows missing data as missing rather than as zero. It’s read-only, and your data never leaves your Mac.
Best for: people who want to glance at all their sites, many times a day, without opening anything.
Which should you choose?
| You want… | Use |
|---|---|
| Deep analysis of one site | Google Analytics |
| A shared, custom team report | Looker Studio |
| Your own data pipeline | The Data API |
| A quick look at every site, all the time | Synopsy |
These options don’t exclude each other. Many people keep Google Analytics for deep dives and use Synopsy for the daily check. See the full comparison for more detail.
