: Google Analytics and direct access Does Google analytics regards remote access resources as direct access? For example: Suppose: mysite.com and anothersite.com mysite.com has an image found at http://mysite.com/img/vip.jpg
Does Google analytics regards remote access resources as direct access?
For example:
Suppose: mysite.com and anothersite.com
mysite.com has an image found at mysite.com/img/vip.jpg anothersite.com at some page of it like anothersite.com/photos.html included vip.jpg in its source in image tag:
<img src="http://mysite.com/img/vip.jpg" />
So does Analytics regard loading this image when a visitor vists anothersite.com/photos.html to be a direct access for mysite.com?

No is the simple answer.
Analytics work with Javascript which is on a (X)HTML page.
An image would not trigger this call as it does not execute the Javascript.
Use AWStats or some similar server based metrics package to see actual server hits/traffic if you need to.
