Event Tracking Example


html/javascript code Button equivalent code in my actionscript
onClick="javascript:pageTracker._trackEvent('button', 'pressed', 'btn1', 1);" trackGA("button", "pressed", "btn1", 1);
onClick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('pressed/btn2');" trackGA("page", "pressed/btn2");
Pick the ball up and throw it!

This experiment was borrowed from Circle-cube

Watch the calls go to Google Analytics:
  1. Get firebug- you must have this Firefox plugin
  2. Enable Network monitoring in this page
  3. Click the Net tab
  4. Google Analytics calls go out as calls to images so itf you want to see only those drill down to watch images by clicking the images tab
  5. Everytime a call is fired you will see it and can even inspect it's parameters and headers (they show up as GET_utm.gif?utmwv=.....)


See the beautiful Google Analytics reports this experiment creates!
