Google has opened up for a new way of incorporating the Google Analytics code on your web site: Asynchronous loading.
This has changed the syntax for outgoing links and downloads tracking.
We needed this functionality and could not find a plugin to do this... so we modified the component Track Outgoing Link, which was written by e-dijon. You can find the original extension here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/site-management/site-analytics/5819
We thought the plugin could be of use to others so we put it up for download.
You need Google Analytics working in Asynchronous mode on your web site.
You can find several different extensions to do this here at the Joomla Extensions Directory.
Or you can use our extension here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/site-management/site-analytics/11843.
Note! We have only tested outgoing link tracking in combination with our own extension for asynchronous Google Analytics tracking, but it should work fine with any of them.

I too needed a way to track out going links and after trying a variety of ways, finally found this plugin. It worked perfectly out of the box. I wish I had tried it first. Thanks for making a great plug in.
