I have a site that lists local food sources. Is there anyway to know what links are the site people are clicking on? Or clicking on to leave the site?

You can try loading monitoring code into your site, one such provider is http://www.statcounter.com this will allow you to see which pages your visitors are looking at and what exit links are being used.

Well, I’m looking for something more specific. For instance, my web provider has something called “AWS Stats” that tells me which of the sites page’s people entered on and exited from. But, what I’m looking for is something that tells of the hundreds of links on the site, which are people clicking on.
But, I appreciate the reply John.

Thanks everyone. I was able to find something on the web, using the search term “tracking clicked links”.
Here’s a few that I found:

Sadly, there’s nothing automated. In both, you enter the link on their site, and it generates an intermediary link which then immediately re-directs to the link you want. As users click on the link, it records that someone clicked on it. Useful, but it means every existing link in Freeway would have to be re-established to the intermediary link, which, depending on the site, could be a whole lot of work.
But, I appreciate the replies.

Why not use Google analytics? That can track how many clicks a link took on an overlay of your site.

My personal tracking tool of choice is Clicky - http://getclicky.com/
I prefer the interface over GA and the real time tracking is a cool feature. A great review here on Joost de Valk’s blog - http://yoast.com/clicky-analytics-review/
