Link Management with Linkly

What is link management?

Digital marketers often end up with hundreds of links pointing to different products, adverts, pages, and so on.

Managing all of these links becomes tricky.

Linkly allows you to keep all of these links in one place, see an overview of the activity on each link, and adjust the destination in real-time.

Link management with Linkly

Linkly's default view is the link management dashboard, and shows all the links in the current workspace.

Here, you can search for links you've created, sort them, edit them, see their traffic, disable them, get QR codes, and more.

Linkly's link management dashboard supports millions of links in a single workspace.

You can also manage many different domains in the workspace.

Linkly works by replacing your marketing link with a special tracking link that Linkly manages. This allows Linkly to track the traffic and manage the destination dynamically, similar to the way other URL shorteners work.

Use the Linkly link in place of your original link, and it will be routed through Linkly before redirecting to the intended destination.

Searching for links

Use the search field to find links. You can search on any field, and the link management list will auto-filter as you type.

Searching is case insensitive.

Adjusting the columns displayed

Select the Column Visibility dropdown and select the columns you'd like to add or remove from the link management list.

Managing links without folders

A common feature request for Linkly is folders.

We don't offer this feature directly because we offer a much more comprehensive solution - search.

When you create new links, add a keyword of your choice to the link's Name field (for example, 'Spring Campaign'):

Then, when you're on the dashboard, type that keyword (e.g. 'spring') into the search, and you'll see all your links with that keyword appear.

This approach is much more flexible than folders, as links can be found by multiple keywords and searches work across all link fields, including destinations.

Sorting links

You can click any of the column headings to sort the list ascending or descending.

Selecting links

You can select links by clicking the checkbox on the left of the link. You can also Select All by clicking the checkbox in the column header.

Generating traffic reports from a subset of links

Select the links you want to include in the traffic reports using the checkboxes on the left, and then a Report button will appear at the top of the link management dashboard. Click it to generate a traffic report of those links only.

Deleting multiple links

Select the links you want to delete using the checkboxes on the left, and a Delete button will appear at the top of the link management dashboard. Click it to delete the selected links. You will be asked to confirm. Traffic data is not deleted.
