Tracking behaviour update from Hitsteps

This update involve all links that point to a javascript function. Do not get concerned if you see a small reduction in your pageviews.

Hitsteps previously count clicks on <a> links with href=’javascript:…’ as a pageview. however, these javascript functions are mainly used to run a dynamic function on the page such as adding items to shopping cart.

It is necessary for us to release this update to avoid higher than usual pageviews on websites which are using javascript:void(0); method a lot. As a side effect of this update, if your website use <a href=’javascript:..’.> method, you might notice a small reduction in number of your pageviews.

This update has been published to our mainstream tracker script and will be rolling out to all of our customers within next few days.
