Bitly - Free URL and Link Shortener & Tracker

Bitly is a subscription based (free plan available) URL and link shortener and tracker service that allows you to shorten links. It uses long URLs and replaces them with short series of numbers and letters. It helps in sharing the links in social media and other websites where the link characters limit is less. 

Original long URLs are not effected by the usage of shortened links and once you enter it in the browser, it redirects to the actual link within no time.

Free plan:
  • Up to 10 custom links per month.
  • Unlimited clicks
  • Customizable back-halves
  • Powerful link history and reporting
  • Access to integrations
  • 2-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Pros:
  • Easy to use and intuitive interface.
  • Customizable branded links enhance credibility.
  • Detailed link analytics.
  • Integration with third-party tools.
  • Reliable and secure.
Cons:
  • Free plan has limited features.
  • Analytics data may not be sufficient for advanced users.
  • Paid plans can be expensive for small businesses.

It is a nice URL shortener and link tracking tool that is both reliable and user-friendly. 

Pros: 

  1. Easy to Use
  2. Comprehensive Analytics
  3. Customizable URLs
  4. Integration Capabilities

Cons: 

  1. Limited Free Features: The free version offers basic functionalities, but more advanced features are reserved for paid plans. 
  2. Occasional Downtime: I have observed occasional downtime, which can be an issue for time-sensitive campaigns.
