      bevo has bitly integrated which is nice when i want to shorten my links and be able to track more data.

      Not so sure i would use shorte st there are way better options and other ways to make pretty links as well.

    I agree that bit.ly is the best, but it is using to tracking links, not to monetize them. So in my opinion you can't compare it. Shorte.st is like adf.ly. Btw. is anyone that use to work boath with shorte.st and adf.ly? I'm curious opinion.

      In bit.ly the most important are statistic. In Shorte.st - you share links to earn money. Links also have statistic, but it isn't the reason you use it. All shorten links have ads, like this one: sh.st/MZFJ and allways when someone click the link, you get money.

      It is pretty nice income source when you have big traffic, or many followers

    The differences are bitly is a redirecting service and shortest is a redirect with a 5 second ad just like adf.ly service.

    Why not setup your own link shortener on your own domain? Yourls is a good piece of software and it's free. Set it to private so only you can use it once you install it on your own domain and your good to go as far as keeping track of clicks between campaigns.
