View Full Version : tracking outgoing links

Im using the analytics in google adwords and Im trying to track outgoing links away from my site. I used the example used in googles help for outgoing linking as below:

<a href="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" onClick="javascript:urchinTracker('/outgoing/example(dot)com');">

which differs from what I need. My pages are dynamically creating in PHP.

I tried coding it like this:

$site_client = "ab_flexer";
$site_link = "link to website";

<a href="' . $site_link . '" onClick="javascript:urchinTracker(\'/outgoing/' . $site_client . '\';)"><img border="0" src="/images/buttons/buy_button.jpg"></a>

Would this show up in my google analytics tracking under my outgoing links ? Or am i doing this completely wrong ? Because it takes 24-48 hours to see if google analytics will pick up the change .. i want to get the syntax right.

Quick question:

Can anything be put in the bolded site_name below ? This is used just to name the outgoing link right ?

onClick="javascript:urchinTracker('/outgoing/site_name';)">



Thanks!
