Page events

The ‘Page events’ metric shows the number of times any link tracking call was made. This metric is helpful when you want to understand which pages have the most engaging content. Measurement for this metric is most valuable when a visitor can perform an action on the page without navigating to a new page.

How this metric is calculated

This metric counts all Link tracking calls (tl()) in a report suite. All link types are included in this metric, specifically Custom links, Download links, and Exit links. It does not include Page view tracking calls (t()).
