: Cross domain tracking - Wordpress and Google Analytics Which is the best approach to automatically add the _link GA action to every outbound link that points to a certain domain? e.g. <a

@Tiffany637

You can add an event handler to all links that point to a specific domain.

For example if the domain you are linking to is example.com and jQuery 1.0+:

var linksToHost = $('a').filter(function(){
return this.host.match(/^example.com$/);
})

linksToHost.bind('click', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
_gaq.push(['_link', this.href]);
})


You must also enable linking on the target site in order for link to work properly:
_gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);
