Short links for your SMS campaigns
An SMS has 160 characters. A long link eats half of them. Li-Nk cuts it down to 20 characters, on your own domain, and shows you how many people clicked from each campaign.
The link becomes 20 characters, on your own domain, and you see how many people clicked from each campaign.

Illustrative example.
20 characters instead of 90
You keep room for your message. A long link with UTM parameters takes up a whole SMS by itself; shortened, it fits in a single SMS together with the text.
Your domain, not a generic one
Recipients recognize “go.acme.com” and click. Carriers filter custom domains less often than public shorteners.
Clicks per campaign, not just a total
Each send gets its own link or its own channel. You see how many clicked from Tuesday’s batch and how many from Thursday’s.
From a long link to a campaign report
-
Create the link in Li-Nk
Paste the long address, pick the domain and the “SMS · October” channel. You write the alias yourself, so you recognize it a month later.
-
Put it in the message
In BlueText, the link is shortened automatically when you send. On other platforms, you copy it from Li-Nk.
-
Send the campaign
Li-Nk records each click with the time, country, city and device, without personal data.
-
Read the report
Clicks per hour after sending, click rate against the number of SMS messages delivered, comparison between campaigns.
Works directly with BlueText
You write the message in BlueText and paste the long link; Li-Nk shortens it automatically on your domain and ties the clicks to the campaign. The report appears in both platforms.
Frequently asked questions
Does the link work if I don’t use BlueText?
Yes. You copy the short link from Li-Nk and put it in any SMS platform. The BlueText integration only automates the shortening and ties the report to the campaign.
Can I have a different link for each recipient?
Yes, through the API: you generate personalized links in bulk, with your own parameters.
What happens to clicks from carriers or spam filters?
We recognize them and flag them as bots; they are not counted in the real click statistics.
How much does it cost?
SMS links are included in all plans; the click volume determines the plan. Ask for a quote.
