Cross Domain Tracking

[TeachersMutualBank]

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?

Thanks Benjamin, very helpful. I'm not wedded to the virtual pageviews, just wondering as all our site goals are currently attached to them. I suspected that I could get rid of them once the cross-domain tracking is operating properly, so thanks for confirming that as well!

Are you sure you definitely want to keep the virtual pageview in there?  I ask because normally you'd have that in place to track clicks on an outbound link, so that you can see how many people clicked it.  But if you're hooking up cross domain tracking to another domain that you control, you can see how many people clicked the link just by checking pageviews of the URL that the link points to.

If you do need to keep it though, your link would look like this:

Checkout Now!

I think I should be able to do the following:

Checkout Now!

Would that be likely to work?
