Hey folks,
I told myself I wouldn't start another thread until I had something of value to contribute. I thought I would post up a link to YOURLS. They're an open source link-shortening service that you can host yourself. Essentially you can run your own bit.ly if you wanted.
I've been using it to track clicks, when I don't have access to Google Analytics. So for example, if I post an article talking about someone's blog. I can use my link shortener to track whether the link is clicked or not.
It also tracks time of click and traffic source for you. Great if you're posting this stuff through social media or just want more knowledge of your audience.
Anyway, I just thought I would mention it as I haven't seen it on here yet.
Have a good one!
