Pro Tips

Expert strategies for creating effective short links that drive results

Custom Aliases for Brand Recognition: Use memorable, descriptive aliases that match your campaign (e.g., "spring-promo-2025" instead of random codes). Keep it short (8-15 characters), use hyphens for readability, and include relevant keywords for better recall and click-through rates.

Track and Analyze Performance: Monitor your link analytics to understand audience behavior. Track click patterns, geographic distribution, device types, and traffic sources. Use this data to optimize timing, targeting, and content for future campaigns.

QR Codes for Physical Marketing: Generate QR codes for print materials, product packaging, business cards, and event signage. Test scannability at actual size, ensure adequate contrast, and position codes at eye level. Include a shortened URL underneath as a fallback.

Link Management Best Practices: Organize links by campaign or category in the history dashboard. Delete expired promotional links to keep your workspace clean. Review analytics regularly to identify top-performing content and distribution channels.

Social Media Optimization: Short links save character count on Twitter, look cleaner on Instagram, and improve click-through rates across all platforms. Test links before posting, use link preview cards when available, and track which platforms drive the most engagement.
