I’ve been looking how to track outbound links that the directory refers out to the listers on my site. So, after many ways of trying to achieve this I thought maybe I can use a url shortening system like bit.ly to track these. Any thoughts? Any other ideas. I just want to be able to put a figure at what kind of traffic is being generated from the listings for the listers.
Any suggestion I’m all ears. Also, would there be a way to mask the hover text over the website link? I want to avoid showing the bit.ly address and still show the real web address if possible.
Thank you.
