About Bitly

Bitly is a URL shortener software designed to help businesses of all sizes create and share personalized links for digital marketing campaigns. The platform enables administrators to encrypt URLs with hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) and protect them against third-party breaches. Managers can gain insights into link metrics such as click-through rates, most referred channels and geographical data on a unified interface. Bitly provides an auto-branding feature, which allows teams to create shortened links with custom domains. Additionally, supervisors can change and update the destination of links and redirect old URLs. Bitly offers an application programming interface (API), which lets businesses integrate the system with several third-party applications such as Salesforce, Twilio, Khoros, Adobe, Sprinklr and more. Pricing is based on monthly and annual subscriptions and support is extended via email, knowledge base and an online contact form.
