Clicklaw uses Google Analytics (GA) to collect, report, and analyze data about its website usage. One of the reports is tracking outbound traffic from Clicklaw to contributor websites. The report shows the number of clicks on links to contributor websites. Each time a Clicklaw visitor clicks the link, Google Analytics reports it as one click.

Using the Report to Count Inbound Traffic to PDF Files
Clicklaw sends traffic directly to PDF files residing on a contributor’s website, which is reported in the above report. When a contributor’s website is using Google Analytics to track inbound traffic, this direct-to-PDF traffic does not get reported because of the way GA tracking works. Clicklaw’s report can then provide a piece of the missing picture and complement a contributor’s own GA report.
Accessing the Report
Clicklaw contributors have a viewing access to Clicklaw’s Google Analytics account. When they log in to Clicklaw, they can see the information about the user name and password for this purpose.
