3 Solid Reasons Why Our Link Shortener Drives Amazing ROI

CampaignTrackly

In today’s blog we will cover the CampaignTrackly Link Shortener. We will share with you three solids reasons why you should be using it – if you are already using our UTM link tagging platform – and why it is really great for you.

Why Marketers Use Link Shorteners.

URL Link shorteners go hand in hand with link tagging processes, because it is a part of how you prep your marketing digital links to be shared on your promotional channels and tracked for performance.

All social media channels and most of the other promotional digital channels leverage link shorteners for space and utility considerations.

Many marketers are forced to tag their links in one place and then carry the tagged links to another platform/tool to get them shortened.

Challenges with this process:

  • Too much manual work
  • Jumping between tools
  • A process which is vulnerable and open to errors
  • Too many touch points for something as simple as tagging and shortening links.
