Does LinkClick Tracking work for the Text/HTML module?

If not is there any way that we can track clicked links??

Thanks :)

Adski,

if the question is "Can you use LinkClick tracking within a text/html module?" - the answer is yes. Hitting the LinkClick.aspx page is what does the tracking - so it doesn't matter what module the link is in - but just that you're using LinkClick.aspx.

Does that help?

Take care,

Ian

there is no option to enable link tracking in Text/HTML and no UI to display the results. one of the disadvantages of URLTracking control is, that it is designed for a single use on a page only, no list of urls with associated results.

You can setup the link somewhere else (say on a links module), turn on tracking.  You can then copy that link somewhere else as Html (into a Text/Html Module, for example).  This will track the link clicks for you (assuming it's not a javascript style postback link)

I have a sql script which will summarise the link clicks for you : you can get it at http://www.ifinity.com.au/Products/Free_Downloads/

Just remember using LinkClick is bad for SEO because it doesn't include any keywords in the Url, and potentiall indexes the page twice for the same content, causing duplicate content issues.  If you just want to track internal links, try using a free web analytics provider like Google Analytics.

Hope this helps
