Trackable tiny url
By Sasha on Mar 28, 2009 in Brain wave
I normally shorten long urls that I include in emails to my friends. Like for example, I want them to read an article that I read somewhere or a post I’ve written, I don’t give them the complete URL that’s so long but would rather shorten it before sending it through email.
If you don’t know a web site where you can shorten those long urls, go to URLZoom.org. Register as a user for free. What is unique with URL Zoom is that you are not only creating a simple shortened url, you are actually creating trackable tiny urls. You can actually track referring sites, date and time of click-throughs. Imagine that!
If you are doing a marketing campaign, url tracking is important. You can easily track the top referring sites. For those who are offering affiliate programs, a trackable url is what you need. Imagine the ease with which you can easily track an affiliate. I am thinking of using a trackable url for a contest I am cooking up for this blog. I will probably give a special award to the best referring site. What do you think? Hmm…
If you are looking for a trackable tiny url, go to URLZoom.org now.

Hello Sasha….I was searching Trinoma in Google when I saw your shot and I was surprised to know that we have something in common…i am also a CPA. I am currently working in Guam as an accountant. Would you give me some tips on starting a better blog just like yours. I left the Philippines for a job offer from my brother-in-law here in Guam hoping that work wont be as hectic as it is when I was still working in an Australian owned firm there in the Philippines.
I have some websites that are more of a journal type rather than the same type as your blog. Hope you don’t mind sharing your secrets on how to be a good blogger with a good traffic.
