Possibility to track the exact way from site to site

Sometimes there are more than one link from one site to another
e.g. in an Online Shop from product to product:

  1. via link in megadropdown menu on the top of the site
  2. via "important accessories" link directly below the product
  3. via "other customers also..." link at the bottom of the site
  4. ...

what is needed is a good way to see which way is taken e.g. also in the visitor log.

hmm or are there already good ways to do this?

Thanks for suggestion!

Maybe this information could as a start be done in Page Overlay which would show precise count for each link, on a given page. maybe you had something else in mind?

I linked to here from Page Overlay improvements #3530

yes this is a good starting point!

The idea for this "missing feature" came during scrolling through the vistor logs:
"how does he/she came from this site to the other?"
-> this could help to get an idea of what's his/her motivation?

I don't know how one could solve this- to show the visitor's way also within tables of pages.
Maybe one idea could be to have something like "a grouping of links" (each within one div?)
one for the megadropdown menu, one for "important accessories" and one for "other customers also..." and showing this group as a kind of "referrer" before each new page...
Don't know..maybe someone who reads this may have a great idea...

Currently you can "hack" it by adding a custom parameter to the URLs.
