How do you track a "link click" from an SMS? It's pretty simple 🤷🏻‍♂️

• Shorten your "actual link" ✂️
• Send that "shortened link" in SMS 📲
• User clicks on "shortened link" in SMS and opens it up in browser 🤏
• Boom, that's a click 🥳 (Increment your clicks stats)
• Now you can redirect them to "actual link" ♺

That's how all link click tracking works actually 🤷🏻‍♂️

Let's take a look at Twitter as an example:

When you click on any link shared inside a tweet, Twitter first redirects you to a url https://t.co. That's how link clicks are calculated in Twitter analytics.

bit.ly works the same 😉

I hope someone finds it useful 🙌🏼
