How to track Adsense through Getclicky ?

Hi, I want to know how can i track clicks/queries (goals) which originated from adsense websites.

I am not satisfied with Google Analytic and this is why I want to use Getclicky

Hi, currently we don't track adsense specifically. We are looking into it more though as we keep getting requests for it!

How about AdWords?

yes, if we can track adsense, not exactly tracking clicks, just how many clicks on each page to those adsense javascipt, i think you can track it with adsense pub id, by measuring how many clicks visitors are going out through that pub id since each adsense click url has pub id in it for google to track clicks. This may be something which can help in optimising the pages more for targeted traffic.

Any update on this?

I would like to be able to track exit-link clicks on adsense ads.

Even statcounter offers this now. Maybe I'm missing something in the dashboard or something.

I'm still on free-mode but I would be happy to upgrade to premium if that's what is needed to view these stats.

Thanks.

No updates yet, sorry.

Gentlemen.

I need to be able to attach the visitor to the action that leaves the site via an adsense click. This is as much for compliance to make sure my employees are not clicking the adsense blocks as to track which sequence of actions actually preceded the adsense click.

Right now, the adsense clicks are not even registering as Outbound links, so I am at a loss how to do this.

No, but... really, we do want to do it! Keep in mind we only have ONE developer (me) and I can only do so much :)

I'd like to add another vote for this -- it'd be a GREAT feature to be able to get adsense clicks as goals.

+1 on this. Very important to us. For a new project, I tried to switch back to Google Analytics recently because of this. Couldn't stand it, and came back.

Also, I'm happily recommending Clicky to others, but they alway point me to the Adsense issue.

Please implement adsense tracking.

Clicky is awesome, but I would love adsense tracking.

I would appreciate if we have have high priority assigned to this.

+1 from me too!

+1

I think one of the very first things one of our new employees will be assigned is this. Because it's the feature request that just won't die :)

Don't mean to be a party pooper, but it's very difficult to do. Adsense is created by JavaScript, as the page is rendered. You can't put tracking code into it.

It's also against the tos of adsense if i remember correctly.

It could be done by creating a division in CSS that wraps around it and then attaching a onclick trigger to that division. Wouldn't be totally accurate but best solution I've seen so far.

For what it's worth, no tracker I've seen can do it. Google don't want us knowing who's clicking what.

I would also like to submit a request for this feature.. any update on this in the past month?

I would also like to request this feature. I can only imagine how may Clicky subscribers have Adsense on their site and could benefit from tracking those clicks so this would be huge in regards to providing a benefit to a large population of Clicky subscribers. Would also be another selling advantage to add the list of features in comparison to Clicky competitors. ;)

1 year and 7 months of people asking for this feature and still nothing :(

This makes me sad!

Any news on this adsense tracking feature???

Posted Sat Jul 30 2011 11:52a by seductiontu***


+1, I'd love to see this feature added. This is how my site makes all of its revenue so I'd really love to be able to track which tracking sources are giving me the users that make me the most money.

+1, would be a nice feature

+1 for this

Sorry, we added this a few weeks ago. Anyone coming from an adsense ad, we will now show the actual referring instead of whatever it was before (something like ads.google.doubleclick.net), and flag it as advertising too (in traffic sources report)

What about tracking outgoing adsense clicks? I would like to know how many are legit as google likes to say some are not, or as in my case when I had a lot of traffic they wiped them all away - and I have no way of knowing if that is true. Having a way to track adsense would at least shed some light on google's practices.

Posted Sat Jan 7 2012 10:27p by stinger***


We have researched this and Google works hard to make these difficult to track with a third party system. We haven't been able to come up with a way to do it.

As the tempareture inceasing hot day after day, and the step of summer vocation is just around the corner, what plan do you made for your vivid summer?Swimming in the sea and hang about in the sand beach is a common plan year by year and one by one. Maybe you can travel around the ice island or going to an icy palace to enjoy with all your heart with different scenery. Or you can stay at home to participate in Diablo III. It is very popular at the moment and Diablo series is a legend. What do you think about? [b][url=http://www.diablo3buygold.com]Buy Diablo 3 Gold[/url][/b]
