Can I find out which sponsors' adverts have been clicked?

    Sorry if this is a silly question, but if I knew which companies get clicked, I could improve my performance by reducing the number of them I let advertise. Is there a way of monitoring which companies get clicked?

    I think you can't do this. Maybe with some tracking software you can see where did visitors gone from your web site but I'm not shure.

    Used to be able to, but not anymore. Google changed the code of the adblock for security reasons which prevented detecting what url was clicked on.

    There are third party sites that do this. I forgot the names so just google them.

    I would be interested, too, since the way Google changed the code of the ads, it doesn't seem possible anymore...

    Nop you can't find out which ads where clicked. If the information was available all would target the high paying ads and Google won't like that to happen.

    You can get this data from reporting tools like SiteSuperTracker.

    It seems that I am wrong. :eek:

    This was available in the old version, but I just looked at an instance of the current revision and it no longer appears to be available.
