Overall Satisfaction with Bitly
Bitly is one of the early URL shortener programs. I like being able to track all clicks over a limitless timeframe. I can always go to my Bitly dashboard and see the results of my shared URLs from AD campaigns, FB posts, and other content streams I push to.
Bitly is easy to use. The URL for seeing the metrics over time is also simply adding /# to the bit.ly link and there is your data.
I have created so many bit.ly links over time that I occasionally run into "unique" URL names conflicting with links I had already created.
Bitly is fast, complete, and provides excellent back-end reporting.

- Using Bitly as a default shortener for Twitter or Tweetdeck provides an additional layer of accountability and reporting.
- Shortening apps have gotten a bad rap and are blocked on some sharing platforms.
- Increase the level of security to eliminate some of the objections to Bitly inclusion.
- Reporting
- Unique URL if needed
- Easy client access to link performance
- No real monetary impact, but using Bitly can provide a layer of accountability that clients appreciate.
