Click Tracking

I was just wondering if there is any way or any programs/tools out there to track the number of clicks on a specific link on a site - because I'm looking at offering PPC to an advertiser and I need a way of tracking the number of clicks on the link... ?

 

crazyegg , google analytics and urchin

 

Aren't those traffic trackers - I need a specific link tracker from my end that tracks outbound traffic.

 

Anyone else have a suggestion?

 

With Google Analytics :
How do I track clicks on outbound links?

 

Google Analytics can be used for that too.

 

Have a look at Click Counter - http://www.phpjunkyard.com/php-click-counter.php

 

Any ad server or manager can do this. PHPAdsNews for instance.

 

Thanks guys you have been super helpful.

 

OK in the Google Help page it says:

OK I'm confused - how do I go about setting up a "filename" that the pageviews will be assigned to?

 

The filename doesn't matter. It is just for you to see (Content Optimization > Content Performance > Content Drilldown). Suppose you want to track how many clicks were received by a link to DP. Since the link is an outgoing link, you can use '/outgoing/digitalpoint.com'. There is no importance for the above filename or directory name. It is just for you to know that it is an outgoing link and it is pointing to DP. If you use this filename, then under the Content Drilldown section you can see all the outgoing clicks by expanding the folder outgoing.
