About Linkly

Linkly is a link management tool aimed at marketers who want more than a short URL. Links can carry retargeting pixels from ad platforms, so anyone who clicks can be shown ads later, and smart redirect rules can send visitors to different destinations by country, device or time. Link rotators, click-limited and time-limited links, password protection and custom link previews round out the campaign tools. Analytics cover devices, browsers, locations and referrers, with monthly email reports and public analytics pages on higher plans. Developers and automation users get an API, webhooks and integrations with Zapier, Make and n8n. There is a free-forever plan for light use; paid plans are priced by links and clicks per month and billed monthly or annually, with add-on packs for extra clicks, links or domains. It is web-based. The click-based pricing can get expensive for viral links, and the dashboard is more utilitarian than polished.

Best for: Marketers who want retargeting pixels and smart redirects on short links.
