Related Posts: track clicks in Jetpack Stats #5417

Open jeherve opened 7 years ago

jeherve commented 7 years ago

We use the relatedposts_hit and relatedposts_origin URL parameters in Related Posts, to track clicks on Related Posts elements.

It would be nice if we could surface that data in Jetpack Stats.

Related: #3038

@jeherve the ticket mentions tracking clicks (assumably all internal clicks)

The relatedposts_hit only tracks clicks through the RelatedPosts Module...

Also do we actually persist that data? It seems like logging the click does nothing

    protected function _log_click( $post_id, $to_post_id, $link_position ) {

    }

@AjkP This issue is about tracking clicks on Related Posts links. That's something that is done on WordPress.com, but not in Jetpack yet as you've discovered. We'll consider adding that option to a future Jetpack release, and we'll update this issue when we do!

We've had a request for this in https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-related-posts-click-through-statistics/

Ideally, I’d like to see the effectiveness of Related Content, like:

  1. How many total page views per month are a result of the Jetpack Related Content plugin?
  2. Which Related Content pages are driving the biggest results (so I can replicate them)?
