Linktrack is a free service designed to shorten very long urls (links) to make them easier to read, remember, and send to other people.

Every link you create lets you track when it’s been clicked on, and who clicked it!

Linktrack is built for anyone who wants a simple and effective way to track links online!

You can use your tracking link to track anytime someone clicks your link. Use it anywhere you would put a web address!

Here are a couple of places people like to use tracking links:

Put your tracking link in an email signature and count the number of people who check out your web site from your emails.
Send them with your instant messaging client or in an email to shorten long links.
Use them on advertising sites like Craigslist.org. Know who’s reading your ads, and how effective they are.
Post them on your own web site and learn which links on your web page attract the most attention.
Point your pay-per-click marketing sites like Google Adwords or Yahoo!’s YPN network to them so you know what you’re paying for.
Use them with affiliate programs to disguise affiliate links and track commissions.
Put them in a forum signature so you can know who’s reading your posts.
