    摘要: A tracking server may receive, from a requester, a content request for accessing a content element on a content server. The content request includes a request URL with at least a content identifier specifying the requested content element on the content server, and a request referral identifier. If the content identifier does not refer to a content element provided on the content server, an error response is sent. If the content identifier refers to a content element provided on the content server, a new and unique referral identifier associated with the content request is generated. Further, a new and unique referral URL for the content request is generated as a response URL comprising the received content identifier and the newly generated unique referral identifier. The requested content element is then served to the requester under the response URL.
