Redirects aren't tracked
A lot of sites use local redirects for outbound links, so they can count clicks themselves. That's great, but once you start using an external tracker like Clicky, our code has no way of knowing these links will redirect after they are clicked. We see them as internal links and hence ignore clicks on them.
There is a solution, however! Using one of our
custom tracking options, you can define patterns for your redirect links that our code will look for and tag as outbound links automatically. This is good because you only have to essentially create a Javascript variable and it will work automatically, rather than having to
tag them manually.
Check out the "outbound_pattern" option on the
custom tracking page for details. This can also be managed in your site preferences, under the "Advanced" section.
