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

Intranet analytics
Anyone got any suggestions for good intranet analytics? We can't use Google Analytics because the ga.js JavaScript will only work if the intranet can be accessed using a domain name that is fully qualified, but ours is http://intranet. Also, we don't want user data sent to a remote server via the ga.js script. Our intranet is built on SharePoint if that helps. Thanks

Cross Domain Tracking
I want to track across domains, but also track as a virtual pageview anytime someone clicks on the link to another domain. So currently I have, for example: Checkout Now! As per Google's instructions, I need to have the link set to: Checkout Now! But this will obviously get rid of my virtual pageview. Is there a way I can do both?

Backlink Profile in Webmaster Tools
The quest for the "accurate" backlink profile never ends. We now have Webmaster Tools to help us with this search. My question is whether the backlink profile according to WT is the backlink profile according to Google. Do Google's search algorithms and WT synch up? If this is the case, forget OSE and MajesticSEO, WT will be the main backlink analysis tool I use going forward. Thanks for any insight.

Google Analytics session update question
Hello, With reference to seomoz blog post - http://www.seomoz.org/blog/panda-24-and-analytics-session-update-rolled-out-simultaneously#jtc151292 , i would like clarification about the following - User searches Google for "Product Name" and clicks on your AdWords advertisement. User leaves site and searches a few more times, click on competition and comparing prices and features. User ultimately decides to with your product, Googles "Your Brand + Product Name", clicks your organic listing, and buys the product. This whole process takes less than 30 minutes. "Your Brand + Product Name" will appear in your organic keyword report with 1 visit. My question is whether "Product Name" will also appear in organic keyword report with 1 visit if the visitor is not signed in. ( as search won't be encrypted ) Thanks

Tracking Referring Sources - Google Analytics - Ecommerce
I need some help from anyone that has deal with this issue before.. We are currently running BigCommerce for the shopping cart on chinamist.com. We have enabled e-commerce tracking through Google Analytics and the revenue tracks perfectly. The only issue is that the referring sources are not tracking directly to the revenue being displayed - for the source, all analytics shows is (none). The assumption is that the tracking issue is a result of having a domain and subdomain.. but 'domain and subdomain' was selected when setting up the sites' advanced analytics script. Does anyone have any tips? We've run into a dead end here.. One final note, we're running an Adwords campaign which is showing conversions through the Adwords side of reporting. After integrating the Adwords and Analytics accounts, the analaytics account is still not showing revenue/conversions from Adwords as a source. Appreciate the feedback.
