   Thanks for this informative blog post! I had always wanted to track outbound links in my blog and I was thinking to use the Pretty Links plugin but this analyticator plugin one seems much more to the core point of tracking outbound links..

   What about blogger? Any facility is there to know the outbound links?

   Great article there. I have a question, I already had the regular Google Analytics code running, and after installing this plugin, I saw that it adds the code – again. Should I just remove my old regular Google Analytics code? Thanks for your help.

     @Benny – You need to remove the code you put in manually, this plugin will automatically add the code for you.

   My Google Analytics plugin has had this option enabled for quite some time, but I don’t see anything under Event Tracking – Categories.

   Does the plugin add in the javascript snippet to all links automatically? Or is that a step I have to do that you didn’t mention here?

   I was just wondering, doesn’t Google Analytics do this automatically ? What special option does this plugin enable ?
