## **Overview** If you operate separate Shopify stores for different regions — for example, a UK store and a US store — you need to create and configure a distinct Search Atlas project for each store. Because each store has its own domain, script installation, and regional traffic rules, treating them as separate projects prevents geo-routing conflicts and ensures accurate data collection for both properties. ## **Before You Begin** Gather the following before starting: - Admin access to both Shopify stores - Search Atlas account with permissions to create multiple projects - Knowledge of whether either store uses a CDN such as Cloudflare, or a geo-redirect/routing rule that forwards visitors based on location - The primary domain for each store (e.g., **example.co.uk** and **example.com**) ## **Step 1 — Create a Separate Project for Each Store** Each Shopify store must have its own project inside Search Atlas. Do not attempt to track two stores under one project, as this causes domain mismatches and corrupts keyword and traffic data. 1. Log in to Search Atlas and locate the area where projects are listed or created. 2. Create a new project and enter the primary domain of your first store (e.g., **example.co.uk**). 3. Complete the setup process and save the project. 4. Repeat the process to create a second project for your second store (e.g., **example.com**). Once both projects exist, confirm each project dashboard shows the correct domain before proceeding to script installation. ## **Step 2 — Install the Search Atlas Tracking Script on Each Shopify Store** You must install the tracking script separately in each Shopify store's theme. The script tied to each project is unique — do not copy the same script across both stores. 1. Inside Search Atlas, open your first project (UK store) and locate the tracking script provided for that project in the project settings. 2. Copy the script snippet shown for that project. 3. In your UK Shopify admin, navigate to your theme's code editor and open your main theme layout file. 4. Paste the script into the appropriate location in the **** section of your theme and save the file. 5. Return to Search Atlas, open your second project (US store), and copy its unique tracking script. 6. Repeat the installation steps inside your US Shopify admin. After saving both files, allow some time for Search Atlas to confirm script detection on each domain. If detection is not confirmed after a reasonable period, contact our support team for help troubleshooting. ## **Step 3 — Manage Project Visibility for Each Region** Each project in Search Atlas should be scoped to its own store domain. Keeping projects separate prevents cross-contamination of UK and US reporting data.
