How to create referring URL

[thisdickie]

Im currently building a stack using weebly and will be including information about various pieces of software online and also a link to each of their websites. For me to track the amount of traffic i am sending to these websites i would like to create a refferal URL.

Hey @thisdickie!

You might want to add Google Analytics to all of your sites so that you can track referral URLs for all of them:

It's pretty easy to add, and the amount of statistical info you can get with it is very powerful.

Thanks Adam,

Im looking for something along the lines of what Product Hunt uses. After each link to an external website it has /ref=producthunt. Please see url example link below.

https://inside.com/?ref=producthunt

I found the solution. I just had to add /? after the Url followed by my website. The idea was for the referral to show up on the companies analytics. 

For example: I want a link on my site to take you to weebly. I would create a link and type www.weebly.com/?mysite 

Hope this makes sense!
