Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Estimated project duration: less than 1 week
Background:
- I use a custom shortener (CS) (eg xyz.ly)
- xyz.ly points to our site, eg www.mycompany.net (These are not the real URLs. These will be provided)
- I control the DNS of the custom shortener as well as the company web address.
What we do:
- We create and publish PDFs that use the CS in each hyperlink within the PDF
- PDFs are hosted on our site as well as other peoples websites and distributed via social media
Using Google Analytics, I am looking for a solution to the following:
- Be able to report on the performance of each PDF
- Track the links within each PDF (approx 10 links in each PDF, all using the CS)
- Generate reports on each PDF
- Which links are being clicked
- Where links are being clicked from
FYI - Google Analytics (GA) is installed on www.mycompany.net
I can add GA to xyz.ly but one question that this raises is: If all traffic to xyx.ly is diverted to www.mycompany.net and each custom shortener is pointing to a specific URL (eg xyz.ly/bbc-facebook points to https://www.facebook.com/bbcnews) how do we best track the clicks from xyz.ly/ traffic ?
What I am looking for
- The best way to achieve the above
- What other KPIs could be measured (to improve reporting on PDF performance)
- Set-up reports / dashboards in Google Analytics
