    Hi guys,

    could you tell me if there is a way I can track clicks on a banner on my site which is linked to another part.

    I need it be able to record everytime the link is clicked.

    thanks in advanced

    There are a number of ways you could do this.

    Google Analytics if you want google to know every click on your site as well!

    Use a third party weblog analysis tool (loads around) - this will tell you which ip address clicked on the link, and when similar to GA.

    Use ASP or similar to write a bit of code that writes all the visitors details to an e-mail every time this is clicked, then get it mailed to you! - or just get it written to a small database so you can retrieve the data at a later date.

    Of course if the user has to log on to your site then you will know a lot of details - and using the email trick you may be able to proactively phone the web user, or mail a response to them with more marketing stuff.
