Tracking & Analytics

Click Tracking

Logs every click on a short link — including device, source, and timestamp.

Click tracking records every single click on a short link: when it happened, which device, which referrer, which browser. The click is logged server-side before the visitor is redirected to the destination URL, so nothing slows the user down.

Typical data points captured: total clicks, clicks per day, device type (desktop, mobile, tablet), referrer, browser family, and approximate geo region inferred from IP. GDPR- and CCPA-friendly tools like promolinks.net hash the IP address before storing it or skip storage entirely.

Click tracking is the foundation of every performance test you run. Which subject line drives more clicks? Which Instagram caption performs? Without click data, you are guessing. With it, you make decisions backed by numbers.
