Google Analytics Custom Tracking -

Google Analytics Custom Tracking -

for marketing purposes, if link our company website posted on page on external website. possible track time in user landed on external website , clicked on link our company website, using custom tracking ?

i have been reading custom ga tags having hard time understanding how create above possible.

thanks in advance!

you cannot track external website, can track sites command tracking code.

if have command on external site , have implemented analytics tracking there would

create timestamp on page load add onclick event handler link site in callback function link create timestamp, substract original timestamp duration

send user timing call:

ga('send', 'timing', 'link', 'duration click', duration);

where "duration" parameter replaced timestamp.

as i've said work if can run own google analytics on external site not seems likely. plus have no thought mean "custom ga tags" (there custom variables , custom dimensions/metrics, both of not help here).

so anwser can't, really.
