Where did website traffic come from?
— answer to this question help us understand where to focus our limited marketing resources.
How much traffic we generated from external sites?
— answer to this question help us understand which external party are we helping and ensure we are getting fair deal for referring potential customers
Deciphering Traffic Origins with Google Analytics
First up, where does Fair Share Tech’s traffic originate? Is it through search engines, or do other websites refer visitors by featuring external links to fairshare.tech? The answer lies within the powerful tool that is Google Analytics.
Setting up Google Analytics 4 (GA4) on your site is straightforward. Once active, it begins the essential task of data collection. After giving it some time to accumulate data, your next stop is the ‘Acquisition’ section. Here, you’ll find insights under ‘Traffic Acquisition.’ This report breaks down the traffic into categories like referral, direct, and organic search, providing a broad understanding of your traffic sources.
However, to pinpoint exactly which websites are referring traffic to fairshare.tech, delve into the details by selecting ‘Source/Medium’ from the dropdown menu. This action reveals the actual websites directing visitors to your site. A treasure trove of data awaits as you navigate through the pages, uncovering all referring sites to Fair Share Tech.
Tracking Outbound Clicks: A WordPress Solution
Now, onto our second query: How do we track the number of times fairshare.tech refers visitors to external sites? WordPress site owners have an array of tools at their disposal, but for simplicity and efficiency, installing a specific plugin, such as “Track The Click,” comes highly recommended.
Once installed, allow some time for the plugin to gather data. It then presents a straightforward report showing the frequency of outbound clicks from your site. For instance, if Fair Share Tech links to validate.com, the plugin will display the total clicks this link has received.
To illustrate, let’s conduct a live test. Visiting Fair Share Tech, I click on a blog post that links to https://validat.in/. Returning to the plugin’s report and refreshing the page reveals an updated click count, confirming the tracking is working perfectly.
In conclusion, we’ve answered two pivotal questions: identifying the sources of incoming traffic and monitoring the success of outbound links. These insights are invaluable for any website owner looking to understand their audience better and refine their content strategy.
Thank you for joining me on this exploratory journey. Stay tuned for more tips on maximizing your website’s potential.

We all know that chat GPT is making waves that it can make images. So I thought that I will try something but to those who do not have that much time to go through the whole video, I will give you the bad news and the good news especially to the creative and visual makers. The bad news is that the AI really comes up with some stunning images with a simple prompt. But here is the good news for you guys, it is still not there fully, it is going to take probably for a few number of years and of course the creative and visual guys will of course keep on improving and making better visuals.
So that way I think your job is not at risk at this moment at least. I asked ChatGPT, if it can replace the image of Rajanikath drinking alcohol in Chalbazz by badminton racket instead of glass. Now this is the good part. It came back with a stunning image with badminton racket in his hand. It made a spelling mistake here, that’s fine. I could have corrected it later on. But then I told him that can you use this photo like attire from the Chalbazz please and also no glass but racket in the right hand. So it made it. So now racket is in the right hand and removed the glass but then the attire is not from Chalbazz movie. Maybe some other scene in the Chalbazz movie but not that famous scene.
Now the bad part. The glass was not removed. There were spelling mistake. The logo was not used as is. It kept on making new mistake by recreating images instead of making those small fixes in the previous one.
Conclusion: The visual and creative designers can rest easy but not too easy.
