ycombinator will be listed in the referring url within Google Analytics. The reports won't be super clean, it's really not that hard to figure out.

- rgbrenner 13y agoActually, since hackernews is loaded over https, and the article is http... no referrer is sent.
- seestheday 13y agoAh, yes you're right. I forgot HN was https and didn't bother to check.
- mik3y 13y agoThere's a fix for this that the HTTPS site can add to <meta>, which works with newish browsers: the "meta referer" header: http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Meta_referrer http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Meta_referrer (Looks like HN doesn't set it.)
