Short link features

Question 1

Can I get a scheduled email report of my link performance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In your notification settings, you can turn on Analytics Reports and choose a weekly or monthly frequency. You'll receive a summary email with your total clicks, new links created, top-performing links, and top country for that period.To keep your inbox clean, we only send a report when there's actually new activity to show, so you won't get an empty email if nothing happened during that period.

Question 2

What is a Splash page?

Accepted Answer

A Splash page is a short "please wait" screen that appears before someone reaches your link's destination. You can add a title, a rich-text message, your logo and a banner image, and a countdown timer before the visitor is sent onward (with a "View site" link available immediately if they don't want to wait).It's often used to display a short announcement, disclaimer, or branding moment before the redirect happens.

Question 3

What are Link Overlays and how do they work?

Accepted Answer

An overlay lets you show a call-to-action on top of the page your link points to, without leaving that page. Visitors still see the real destination in the background, but a popup appears asking them to do something first.You can choose from six overlay types: a contact form, a quick poll, a custom message with a button, an email capture form, a clickable image/logo, or a coupon code with one-click copy. You pick which corner it appears in, and it attaches directly to any link you already have.

Question 4

How does Conversion Tracking work?

Accepted Answer

Clicks tell you how many people followed your link, but not what they did afterward. Conversion Tracking closes that gap: when you enable it on a link, we attach a hidden tracking reference to the destination URL.You then add a small snippet of code to your website (we generate it for you) that reports back an event like "signup" or "purchase"  whenever it happens. That event gets matched back to the original short link, so you can see exactly which links are driving real results, not just traffic.

Question 5

What statistics can I see for my links?

Accepted Answer

Every link comes with a detailed analytics page showing:Total and unique clicks over time (with charts)Visitor locations (country and city, shown on a map)Device type, operating system, and browserReferrers, where your clicks are coming from (social media, search, direct, etc.)You also get an account-wide dashboard with your top-performing links, a click heatmap by hour and day of the week, and the option to export any report as CSV or PDF.

Question 6

Can I make a link expire or schedule when it becomes active?

Accepted Answer

Yes, both. Under a link's "Expiration" settings you can set:Starts On — the link stays inactive (visitors see a "not yet available" page) until the date/time you choose.Expiration — a date, a maximum number of clicks, or both, after which the link stops working. You can also set a fallback URL to redirect people to once it expires.This is handy for time-limited promotions, embargoed announcements, or content that should only be accessible for a set period.

Question 7

Can I protect a link with a password?

Accepted Answer

Yes. When creating or editing a link, enable "Password Protection" and set a password. Anyone who clicks the link will be asked to enter that password before they're redirected to the destination.This is useful for sharing private documents, early-access content, or links meant only for a specific group of people.

Question 8

Can I customize what my short link looks like?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Instead of a random string of characters, you can set a custom alias that's easy to remember, like yoursite.com/summer-sale instead of yoursite.com/x7Yq2.If your plan includes custom domains, you can also connect your own domain so links are branded with your name instead of ours great for building trust with your audience.

Question 9

How do I shorten a link?
