Personally, I use Hootsuite for all of my Twitter’ing so I don’t have the need to go out and shorten it separately. Each time a contact clicks a link in the campaign, the tracking information redirects them through MailChimp's servers and sends them to the intended web address.
These special error resistant links also work great in spoken form (Siri changes links to all upper case). Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. This ensures there’s enough time to track the click. It’s one of the earliest link shorteners out there and allows you to customize the actual shortened link (again, if the customization is not yet taken).
The {redirect} macro is replaced by the offer URL for the click, and the {eredirect} macro is replaced by the URL-encoded offer URL for that click. Some URL shorteners offer a time-limited service, which will expire after a specified period.
Simply enter your long URL and click the Shorten button. You can expect a 4 percent click-through rate (four clicks on your bit.ly link out of 100 total clicks on that blog or content link) for a well-crafted, valuable, interesting tweet. Once you’ve mapped out your plan, then you can start creating tags. This is the best tool you will ever find because we are the most reliable and featured. Create a single responsive short link to direct readers and split into two targets based on their operating system (e.g. If you copy and paste this script exactly as it appears here, your outbound clicks will appear in your Analytics Events reports with a Category of "outbound" and an Action of "click". (In the snippet, these are shown in bold.) You can use these values, or change them and define your own values.
These can be transmitted via one of three parameters on the tracker URL. Clients that subscribe to the link tracking service can maintain the integrity of their references, and the objects can be tracked in a way that is transparent to the user. Link Tracking information is displayed on the Edit Item page of any link it is enabled for. 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 is something you’ll often hear from link shortener detractors. When a user visits your site and is interested in reading the content of a particular page, he or she simply clicks on the link and the page is opened. When a request is received for a shorthand link, the registry database is searched for an associated URL.
