Measure click performance and track link conversions
Use DailyStory Tracking Links to track link clicks and conversions.
URL Shortener Metrics and Reporting
It's important to note the difference between conversion tracking and click tracking metrics....Conversion Tracking reporting on inbound links (content you own) whereas Click Tracking reports on outbound links (content you don't own)....Conversion Tracking is much more accurate because individual visitors are tracked vs. unique IP addresses....While Click Tracking doesn't provide the same benefits as conversion tracking, there are some advanced configuration options available to improve your metrics....This will allow us to write the tracking code to visitor's browser even if Link Management redirects them to an outbound link where the DailyStory tracking tag is not running.
URL Shorteners Frequently Asked Questions
When someone clicks on your Tracking Link, DailyStory Link Management receives the request to our domain (https://dlystr.io)....However, requests that use this short-code URL and then redirect to a URL that is not running the DailyStory tracking tag can only track clicks not conversions....If you provide your own URL for DailyStory to use that shares your domain, DailyStory can write a tracking cookie for your domain.
