Short links turn any long, messy URL into a clean link like htlk.me/abc123, powered by HotiLINK's own short domain, htlk.me. They are useful anywhere a long URL would look cluttered — social posts, printed materials, emails — and every click is tracked automatically.
Turn it on first
Short Links is an Advanced Feature and is off by default on new accounts. If you don't see Short Links in your sidebar, go to Settings → Advanced and enable it — it appears immediately, and you're free to switch it back off later. See Understanding Advanced Features for more.
How to create a short link
- Go to Short Links in the sidebar.
- Click New Short Link and paste the destination URL — this can be any web address, not just your HotiLINK profile.
- Click Create. Your
htlk.me/…link is ready to copy and share immediately.
Good to know
- Short links can be toggled on or off without deleting them, which is handy for pausing a campaign link temporarily.
- Every click on a short link is recorded and shown in Analytics, including which country and device it came from.
- How many short links you can create depends on your plan — see Free vs. Pro vs. Agency: What's Included.
