Improved Handling of Social Media Crawlers
We've improved the way Linkly handles social media crawlers from Facebook, YouTube, Google, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
Now, when traffic from these servers hits your links, it isn't recorded and it doesn't count against click limits.
However, the robot is transparently redirected to the correct destination.
We now also always permit these crawlers through even when the block robots feature is being used.
This improves a scenario where users are heavy users of social networks and find their click limits would be consumed by social media crawlers.
