Tracking Unique Clicks

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi guys and gals,

Basically I have a database which tracks clicks on my outbound links, I do this by linking to a page like so...

/redirect.php?id=1

The page then reads the id and increments the click column in the database before selecting the link and redirecting.

I need it to only count the click if its from a unique IP for the link, what would be the best way to do this?

I was thinking of having another table with columns "IP" and "link_id", Then I could check the IP against the list of IP's for the current link. If its not there then add it and add the click, otherwise only redirect.

I want to find the best method before I start to try and code this so any help is appreciated.
