Whatcha Clickin’?
January 17, 2007
We’ve been tracking a bit of extra information on your blogs for the past few weeks and now we’re ready to show it to you: clicks. Whenever somebody clicks a link on your blog it should be counted. You can see the results on your Blog Stats page.
I really hate to write such a short news post but it’s just that simple. 🙂
Update: Blog user clicks should now be excluded and there is now a Top Clicks widget.

Oh cool I ve just seen that, I like that. At first I wondered but for me it seem to be a nice addition, maybe you could also see where people are routing along passing by my own side. that would considerably open new chances to modify and specify you content to meet the demands of the readers 😉
Nice work, many thx!!!

Hmm…Now I have to include links in all of the posts to get people busy on their mouse buttons 😛
An addition to my previous comment: Can there be a feature where, the Post Title from where the link actually was clicked upon is mentioned? (As a heads-up, on the calendar if we hover on any date, we see the posts made on that date. Similarly if we hover on the links that were clicked, can the post name be made to display?)
Idle curiosity
