A question about URL shortening sites

4 replies
Hi,

I just signed-up with bitly in order to shorten some URLs which would be pointed at clickbank offers, but it seems that bitly is not happy to send people to Clickbank sites at present - at least not without putting up a warning page first.

Are there any other URL shortening sites which do tolerate Clickbank and which ALSO provide click-through stats like bitly does? I could use Tiny, but that does not give me click-through info.

Thanks

    How 'bout creating a subdomain (ie: www.SubDomain.MyDomain) and re-directing it to CB - then you can track the number of visits to the subdomain?

    Not sure if that'll give you the info you want...

    I just added this sig so I can refer to it in my posts...

    I use Google url shortener. If that's not working and you can't seem to find a service that will work for you, there's always the option to build your own shortener site. I did one a while back with a script called shorty I believe and it works great. I guess the tricky part is finding an available short url to register!

    I'm sick of building funnels. Aren't you? You can buy working funnels making $231/day here for 12 bucks. Have a look.
