I'm setting up a multi-ste using sub-directories and will be using Google Analytics to track some data. I'm interested in knowing if I only need to create one Analytics Profile to track the entire site and past the code on the main site?

www(dot)mysite(dot)com/

or if I have to create multiple profiles for each sub-directory site and insert the code on every sub-directory?

www(dot)mysite(dot)com/subdirectory/

Just to add, I'm using wordpress with individual woothemes for each sub-directory. In the woothemes setup, there is an option to paste the Google Analytics Code.

If using one profile... would I paste the code into each theme? (I imagine so)

If using individual profiles... I think that obviously you would post each individual code into each theme.

One profile, and use the multi domain setting if I'm understanding correctly. See here:

Tracking subdomains - Analytics Help

The asynch works about the same way, but the article implies differently (kind of). Just be sure the tracking JS appears on all pages.
