Tracking the performance of your blog posts across social media can become tiresome, as every social network only shows link clicks on their own plattform. Therefore it becomes increasingly challenging to see which blog posts are working well on social media. This is where Bit.ly comes in.

Monitor the success of your social media marketing efforts by tracking the performance of your links across all social media networks.

Activate Bit.ly in the Blog2Social settings and link your Bit.ly account to Blog2Social.

Tip: If you don’t have a Bit.ly account, you can create one for free here: https://bitly.com/a/sign_up

To link your Bit.ly account to Blog2Social, go to “Blog2Social -> Settings -> General” and click "authorize" next to "Bitly".

A new window will open. You can either sign in to your Bitly account or create a new account right there.

As long as Bit.ly is activated in the settings, all your links will automatically be converted to Bit.ly links.

Please note: Due to network-specific policy changes, links on Pinterest are published unshortened. 



Log into your account on http://bitly.com/ to monitor your link performance.
