Tracking PDFs and Images w/ Google Analytics
So I noticed while viewing a PDF hosted on Marketo that there was no Google Analytics tracking taking place, is there a way to track clicks to PDFs or other files with Google Analytics?

Malik, since PDFs can't themselves fire third-party (GA) tracking events but only the built-in (Marketo) Clicked Email event, you need to wrap a PDF download in a landing page. The landing page can just contain a simple redirect to the PDF (so the person doesn't need to click anything else) but it can also fire off the GA event when it loads.
