Why short links matter for marketing campaigns

The problem with long links in real channels

Long URLs get cut off in SMS, don't fit in social bios and are hard to type from print. A short link gives you a fixed, short path like kok.li/campaign-name that stays the same across every channel.

Click tracking without a separate tool

With kok.li you see each short link's click count and 10-day trend in the dashboard. You don't need a separate analytics setup for every campaign to find out which link worked.

One link, many channels

Use the same short link in email, ads and social posts so the stats are aggregated. Set the source and medium when creating the link to see which channel each click came from.

Where to start

Create a short link on the home page. Use a custom alias for a readable name, then check the 10-day stats in your dashboard. The campaign tracking and analytics guides cover the practical details.
