New App: Shorten, Measure, and Optimize Your Links with Bitly

Successful marketing campaigns require strong messaging to captivate interest, reporting tools to analyze results, and a clear call to action that brings customers to your site.

With Bitly, you can keep your links short and clean to avoid distracting from campaign messaging while still providing a branded pathway to your site. By creating custom short links called Bitlinks, you can drive traffic through social media, SMS, email, and more without using up valuable character counts or clouding the overall message. Bitly also provides built-in analytics tools so you can measure the success of your marketing campaigns. That way, you can find out what works best and continue optimizing your outreach efforts.

Zapier connects Bitly to over 750 apps, allowing you to create, track, and distribute Bitlinks using any of your favorite tools. You can automatically generate Bitlink campaigns for new posts on social media, track Bitlinks on shared spreadsheets, or plug newly-created Bitlinks into your ongoing outreach. Bring the power of links to your workflows with Zapier and Bitly.
