social media sharing and tracking

Is there a way to track when user visits our page from social media like facebook, twitter or pinterest?

is there a way to add some parameters to the url so that it will be easier to track?

Solution 
  • <?php  
  echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];  
?>

    This tiny php script enables you to know from where the user came from.

    As nyshangal asked for jsp code

    JSP

    request.getHeader("Referer");

    I am not good at JSP. After googling I found that this above code will return the referrer from where the user came from.

    Thank you
