Short links are easier to share and let you track every click. In lynkily you can shorten any URL, give it a memorable custom back-half, and start collecting analytics instantly.

Step by step

  1. Click “Create” in the sidebar (or the Create button on the dashboard).
  2. Paste your long destination URL into the URL field.
  3. Optional: add a custom name (back-half) so the link reads the way you want.
  4. Optional: add a title, a UTM campaign, an expiration, a password or a schedule.
  5. Click Create — your short link is ready to copy and share, and clicks start tracking right away.

Pro tips

  • Give links a clear custom name for print or social so people trust them.
  • Open a link’s detail page any time to see clicks over time, locations, devices and referrers.
  • Need many at once? Create them one after another — the form stays open.
