Some URL shortening service providers have found themselves on spam blacklists, because of the use of their redirect services by sites trying to bypass those very same blacklists. This method can create some clever domains and also have the advantage of using the domain extension itself as part of the word or words you're trying to convey. The first condition allows this tag to just wait until it sees a link click event, which is the gtm.linkClick event that we were listening for above.
