google-analytics

Hi,

I'm studding a way of using Google Analytics to track Ad impressions/clicks.
Looks like event tracking is the way to go.
Tracking clicks it's easy to implement. My doubt resides on impressions:

using event tracking on page load will cut down my bounce rate to 0
using a second profile doesn't look elegant (leave it for last resource)

GOAL: John loads page A and leave. Count 1 for impressions and 1 for bounce rate as it should.

Is there a way of doing it with Google Analytics?
