Tracking Image block clicks

Site URL: https://www.excelquestions.com

Hi all,

I’m having a little difficulty with getting analytics on image block clicks. I run a site which provides Excel Questions for people to answer. I have downloadable workbooks on each category page of my site, these files are attached to images and I don't really want to use the standard black buttons. I previously used external links to Drop Box via tinyurl to track downloads but for SEO and making things cheaper, I moved it all into Squarespace. However, Squarespace doesn't provide analytics for image block clicks and I really need this data to monitor performance. Has anyone got third party suggestions to allow me to track the clicks on my content?

Thanks,

Tom

You can track custom event using Google analytics, consider to hire a dev to do this if you are not familiar with javascript

Thanks, ive actually cracked this myself using tag manager 😃. Being file downloads I could just track the file name and it works a charm!

P.S – Paid plugin also available 👀

 If you're frustrated with tutorials and want a quick solution that definitely works, check out Squarespace Click Traking Plugin. Not free – unfortunaltely but still cheaper than hiring a freelancer for $100 per hour.

It's a paid solution, but a few dollars also makes it 100% sure to work. Money back if it doesn't, and 1-on-1 support provided if you have any problems.
