Link analytics — frequently asked questions
What is link analytics?
Link analytics (also called URL analytics or link tracking) measures performance data for every shared URL. It records who clicked your link, from which country, on which device, using which browser, and from which referrer source. SendURL provides free link analytics built into every short URL you create.
How is link analytics different from web analytics?
Web analytics (Google Analytics, Plausible) measures what visitors do after arriving on your website. Link analytics measures the click itself — before the visitor reaches your site. Link analytics works even if the destination page has no analytics installed, and it tracks links to any URL you don't own.
Is link analytics free on SendURL?
Yes. Link analytics is included on every SendURL plan, including the free tier. Every short link you create automatically tracks clicks at no cost. No plugins, no code, no credit card.
How do I track clicks on a link?
Create a free SendURL account, paste your long URL, and share the short link you receive. From that point, every click is automatically logged in your analytics dashboard with full geo, device, and referrer data.
Can I use link analytics without an account?
Yes — you can create a guest short link directly from the SendURL homepage without signing up. Your link's click count is tracked in real time. Create a free account to save your links, view full analytics, and create up to 100 tracked short URLs.
