Google Analytics - using properties

I have a client who has a site (Website A), people go off to buy tickets on Website B.

I want to track the full experience using Google Analytics, so we can see how people arrived, how many people converted etc.

Now, to do this I think it would be best to keep the two Analytics profiles separate, so that my ticket pageviews have no impact on the main site. I can achieve this using Google Analytics properties under one account. Would you also recommend this as the best way or should I be tracking them under the same tracking ID or other?

There can be arguments for using just one property or for using two properties. You should give some more details on functions.

However I would prefer to use a single property for both sites based on your description as this would allow treat the user's journey across both sites in a more unified way, for example goals and funnels could be defined across both sites and you could have data from both in a single dashboard or report. You can also set two views to see each site separately.

Going the other way is not possible.

Finally - if you use Google Tag Manager you can change the setup from one to the other in minutes.
