tracking reference is added to our url
Hi There,
Ever since we started add the addthis api to our website - it is adding a tracking reference to our actual url?
This the url with the addthis api
http://www.insurancehound.co.za/affiliates.aspx
and then it goes to this.
http://www.insurancehound.co.za/affiliates.aspx#.UCyyJqEgdTI
we will remove this api if this will continue to do this?
Looks like you've enabled address bar tracking which appends those parameters to your URL. They're there so that we can collect analytics when someone copies the URL out of the address bar instead of going through our sharing tool. It shouldn't affect people linking to your site and can provide insight into what content is the most popular on your site.
If they're not wanted or are causing issues, you're free to disable address bark sharing tracking. Just adjust your addthis_config variable like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var addthis_config = addthis_config||{};
addthis_config.data_track_addressbar = false;
</script>
