The Link Tracking feature in Whippy offers valuable insights and benefits for sharing links with your contacts. This guide explains how link tracking works and its advantages.

Advantages of Link Tracking:

1. Tracking

When you send a link through Whippy, it is automatically shortened, allowing you to track when a contact clicks on it. These interactions appear in your Whippy dashboard, providing insights into contact engagement and enabling automation based on link clicks.

2. Spam Prevention

Shortened links reduce the likelihood of messages being flagged as spam by carriers, increasing the chances of successful delivery and readability.

3. Efficient Use of Characters

Shortening links maximizes the character space in text messages, ensuring clear and concise communication even with lengthy URLs.


How Link Tracking Works:

1. Send a Link

When you paste and send a link in your message through Whippy, the system automatically shortens it.

2. Automations

Automations can be triggered based on link clicks, such as sending a follow-up message when a contact clicks on a link.
