Link tracking
Link tracking refers to the process of monitoring and analyzing the interactions users have with links on websites, emails, or other online platforms. It is commonly used in marketing, sales, and analytics to assess the performance of campaigns, measure user engagement, and optimize content strategies.
Here are some common methods used for link tracking:
The UTM parameters help identify the source, medium, and campaign associated with the link when users click on it.
Tracking Pixels:
A small, invisible image embedded in a webpage or email that tracks user actions, such as clicks or page visits. It allows the collection of data on link interactions.
Redirect Links:
Some link tracking services use redirect URLs. When a user clicks on the link, they are first sent to a tracking server that logs the action before redirecting them to the intended destination.
