The Best Short Link Tools for Business Statistics
As of 2023 I’ve spent lots of time using X and Twitter for business and writing about it.
While at it I tested numerous short link tools over the years.
By now there are really good URL shortening services as they were previously called.
Here is a list of the best short link tools for business statistics to use on X and beyond!
Short Link Tools that Track Visitors and Engagement
These short link tools offer some pretty advanced features like
- visitor statistics
- campaign tracking
- personal accounts
- APIs for creating your own tools
- SEO friendly links
These URL shortening tools for business X-Twitter usage and beyond make sense:
The list is based on my own preferences.
bit.ly is still the most popular of those based on user numbers as well.
No matter which tool you prefer you might want to check the performance of your links and track visitors and engagement.
X Shortens and Tracks Links Itself!
Do you really need a paid third party tool to shorten your links?
OK, now you can track your X-Twitter visitors.
By now not only the likes of bit.ly tracks retweets.
X-Twitter’s default t.co URL shortener also tracks!
You can look up your stats using X-Twitter analytics.
Try the Original Short Link Service!
You want to keep it simple and just shrink a Web address without additional fuss?
The very first legacy tool is still available for that purpose: TinyURL.

By now TinyURL also offers plenty of premium features when sign up or pay.

I might add it to the post itself sooner or later.
Missed out is.gd, which is also quite popular.
Okay sorry for the previous comment, is.gd does not track clicks.
Farrhad: Yeah, is.gd is great for the casual user, for business tweeple not sufficient though.
Can u pls tell me what r the demerits of tinyurl.com?
Wow, this is the exact list I wanted. Didn’t have to Google long for that. Great job, guys — tinyurl isn’t always welcomed. :)
Missed out joturl.com – URL shortener + URL monitor + URL editor. Monitor means it detects changes in URLs and Link contents (even videos)! And furthermore … lots of stats and additional features …. Amazing ;-)
