for growth analysts
Measure clicks over time from short links created in TimeToPost. View device and country segments, compare time ranges, and use the data to attribute social traffic across Instagram, TikTok, and X.
feature overview
See where engagement actually lands. Link click tracking shows clicks over time, and breaks them down by device and country so you can connect social activity to real user behavior.
The short-link click analytics feature is part of TimeToPost. Short links created inside the platform feed into the link analytics report. This feature is available on our single low-cost plan, and publishing requires the appropriate account permission and human approval from the platform approval queue.
how it works
Create a short link in the composer or link manager, add it to your post draft, and route the draft to the single approval queue. Once a human approves, TimeToPost publishes at the best time for each account and the link starts collecting click data.
Open the link analytics report to view click totals over time, filter by device and country, and compare date ranges. The analytics live in the platform, so you can review data alongside your social calendar and Get Found reports.
key capabilities
Track clicks by time, device, and country to answer which posts drive the right audience. Use filters to isolate mobile behavior, compare markets, and spot where engagement concentrates.
Combine these link analytics with other Get Found tools like keyword research, the Rank Tracker powered by DataForSEO, and Backlinks and Outreach to build a fuller attribution picture. The platform also includes an AutoSEO blog engine and a managed content production surface driven by agents, without requiring API keys.
how TTP compares
Standalone link management tools may offer advanced redirect rules or deeper link-level customization. Those tools can be a good fit if you need complex routing or enterprise redirect control.
TimeToPost focuses on integrated short-link analytics tied to social publishing, approval workflow, and the Get Found suite. That means you get link click tracking alongside content approval, publishing to Instagram, TikTok, and X, and related SEO and backlink reports, all on the same plan. Publishing requires the usual permissions and human approval in the platform.
getting started
Confirm that your team member has publishing permission. Create a short link, route the draft to the single approval queue, approve, and publish to a live account to start collecting clicks.
Open the link analytics report, set your date range, and apply device and country filters. Export the results or compare them to Get Found reports to support attribution decisions.
