Introduction to Link Tracker

Link Tracker is an advanced integrated module provided by TraceMyIP.org, designed to enhance the security and functionality of your website. This powerful tool is part of every visitor tracker project within the TraceMyIP system. Link Tracker helps protect contact pages, user forums, and guestbooks from abuse, filters offending web traffic via geographical and IP range filters, and offers a wide range of features to manage and track your website's links effectively.

To use Link Tracker, simply register an account on TraceMyIP.org, create a website visitor tracking project, and then add a Link Tracker to the corresponding project ID. Once set up, Link Tracker allows you to:

URL Tracker


Link Tracker is a universal module that works similarly to the Page Tracker module, which adds the capability to control individual pages just like the Link Tracker controls URLs.

Each project allows setting up Link and Page Trackers individually. Using both allows you to have complete control over all links and pages on your website.

How Link Tracker Works

Link Tracker operates by converting your website's original links into Trackable URLs. Here's a step-by-step overview of how it functions:

  1. Link Replacement: Replace your original website links with the Link Tracker generated URLs.
  2. Data Analysis: When a visitor clicks a Link Tracker URL, the click is directed to TraceMyIP's script on their server.
  3. Visitor Analysis: The software analyzes the visitor's data, including IP address, geographical location, and other variables.
  4. Action Conversion: The analyzed data is converted into actions based on the rules you've specified.
  5. Redirection: The visitor is then redirected to the original link or provided with the specified information.

Usage Example

Suppose you have a link called "My Pictures" pointing to https://www.example.com/pictures.html:

Original Link:

<a href="https://www.example.com/pictures.html">My Pictures</a>

After creating a Link Tracker URL, you replace the original URL:

<a href="paste_your_link_tracker_url_here">My Pictures</a>

Once replaced, the "My Pictures" link will be controlled by the Link Tracker. To ensure full protection, replace the links in your website's navigation menu as well.
