If you are sharing short links using URLShortly, it’s important to know how they are performing. Analytics tells you how many people clicked your link, where they came from, and what device or browser they used. This helps you understand your audience and improve your link strategy.
📊 What Does Analytics Show?
URLShortly gives you useful details for each short link. These details include:
Total Clicks: How many people clicked the link.
Referrers: Which websites or apps your visitors came from.
Location: The country or city where the users are located.
Devices: Whether the link was opened on a mobile, desktop, or tablet.
Browsers & Operating Systems: Which browser (like Chrome, Safari) and OS (like Android, Windows) the user used.
Date & Time: When each click happened — useful for checking peak hours.
🧭 How to View Analytics in URLShortly
Checking analytics is very easy:
Log in to your admin dashboard at URLShortly.com/admin.
Go to the “Links” or “My URLs” section.
Next to each link, you’ll see an option like “Analytics”, “Details”, or “View Stats”.
Click it to see full tracking data in graphs or tables.
You'll be able to filter data by time, location, or other categories — depending on the features in your panel.
✅ Why Analytics Is Important
Knowing how your links are performing helps you make better decisions. For example:
If most of your users are on mobile, you can design mobile-friendly landing pages.
If a lot of clicks come from one country, you can target that area more.
You’ll know which link is working best and which needs improvement.
🔒 Is This Data Private?
Yes, your link analytics are completely private and only visible to you as the admin. No one else can see them unless you share access.
🧠 Bonus Tip
If you share links through different platforms (like Facebook, WhatsApp, or Email), create a separate short link for each one. This way, you can compare which platform brings the most clicks.
🚀 Conclusion
Analytics gives you the power to understand your audience, boost performance, and make smarter choices. Don’t just shorten links — track them too.
