Thanks Glen. I already use the Google Analytics plugin and checked the external link box. Thanks! Funny thing is, the getclicky plugin seems to be more detailed. Precise information of users, what links were clicked, actions with time stamps. Gonna run both for a little bit and see which one works best for my needs. Thanks again!

Yoast's Google Analytics plugin has an option to track outbound clicks.

I'll be sure to give GetClicky a go!

You can do this with statcounter (but only upto 100 records or something like that for free) or getclicky (again not sure if it is free. I "think" it is free for one site, but don't quote me on this).

If you want everything within google analytics, you can do that too. You can add a javascript to your header (where you have the Alexa, google analytics or what ever else js) and you will have add that to your link. Like instead of linking like this

<a href="www.google.com">Google</a>

you have to link like this -

<a href="www.google.com" onclick="trackclick.js">Google</a>

That trackclick.js would be the js you added. If might be a pain to do this for every link, but you can do this if you want to track a few specific links. This will be recorded in your google analytics. If you want the js code and the detailed instruction on how to do this, email me.

But before that check out statcounter and getclicky, one of those might fit your needs.

I thought you could find this info in Analytics, but looking through my account, I don't seem to be able to.

I'll be curious to hear the advice on how to do this!

Are you looking for how many times someone clicks a link on your site that takes them to another site? If so, that's a part of the WP-Stats plugin.

Hi all,

Is there an easy way to track clicks on external links on your own website? Analytics tracks internal links, but how do you track links going away from your site? Is it possible? Thanks!
