Is there any web analytics tool that let us track number of outgoing clicks (and visits) ?
-
I just wonder if we can measure outgoing visits from a specific URL with an online tool or not?

Thank you so much Tait, checking out right now...

Google Analytics can track outbound clicks with using their Event Tracking Mechanism. However, you'd need to add javascript to each HTML tag.

I recomment using jQuery to add the javascript.
You can do something like
jQuery('a[href^="http://"]').not('[href*="yourdomain.com"]').each(function(){
jQuery(this).click(function(){
recordOutboundClick(this, 'Outbound Links', thedomainhere);
});});
If you are not technical this Google Analytics add on can help

Which page speed tools do you trust?
We are at a loss. We have been following Google Pagespeed Insights which gives us horrible marks. Nothing we do seems to really make a difference. GTMetrix and Pingdom give us much better scores. We don't know what to do...

How to filter many cities from Google analytics
I need to filter hundreds of cities from my traffic reports. I've been told that adding them all in this format: |Knutsford|Ripon|Cheadle Hulme|Congleton| and using the 'matching reg/exp from the drop down should do it... Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be working as I can still see cities like London in the results.... Any ideas?

What is the best tool to look at Internal Links?
My site has on average 220 internal links a page largely due to how the site is built ie every page shows every link via the menu system, which isnt great, but from what i have read there isnt much i can do about it. However, this week 3 pages jumped to over 400 links and the home page over 500 internal links, GWT will only show me 200 of them, Is there a tool that i can use that will list all my internal links, so i can find out why this has happened? Thanks Ash
