Overall Satisfaction with Bitly

We do a number of webinars and use Bitly to easily share the links on social media. It is also so much easier to use as a link on stories than the large zoom link. I also love how Bitly will tell who the Referrers were like email, Twitter, etc, the countries, and the number of clicks.
  • Shortens long zoom links.
  • Makes it easy to share links on social media.
  • Makes the link copy exchangeable so you can share easily.
  • Website where they show the links is hard to read.
  • If you have a number of links at one time, it is hard to find them.
  • It's website is hard to read.
  • Easy to remember urls.
  • Easy to use.
  • Easy to find total clicks and top referrers.
  • We get more clicks to our webinars and giveaways because it is easy to use and remember.
  • Reliable always, never had a problem with it not working.
  • Can use it everywhere.
We use Pretty Links for custom URLs from our Word Press website. When that is not possible because the URL doesn't originate from the website, we use Bitly. It definitely has a purpose in our day-to-day operations. We also appreciate the information you receive like total clicks, top referrer and top location.

I use Bitly often for shortening links for general URLs like ones I use for webinars, sweepstakes, etc. The zoom webinar link is so long and so confusing it would be easy to make a mistake but with Bitly, it is small and I can change it to describe the event.
