ClickMeter alternatives: clickmeter.com now redirects to Rebrandly, so here are five link trackers

What happened to ClickMeter

ClickMeter alternatives are needed because clickmeter.com no longer serves a site: it answers with a permanent redirect (301) and lands on rebrandly.com. Rebrandly's pricing page does not mention ClickMeter, so no ClickMeter plan or price exists to state. No page read says Rebrandly bought or replaced ClickMeter; the site only redirects. Rebrandly's pricing page is a link-management price list with an annual-billing view.

Five ClickMeter alternatives and their prices

The five link trackers priced here are Rebrandly, Bitly, ClickMagick, Improvely and BeMob. Rebrandly's figures are its own annual-view prices, not ClickMeter's. Bitly's dollar figures come from the page data behind its pricing page, because the cards showed another currency when read.

Rebrandly Professional lists 1,500 links and 1,500 QR Codes a month and conversion tracking; the Essentials card does not list conversion tracking. Improvely's own tagline is to track results and detect fraud; BeMob calls itself tracking software for affiliates.

ClickMagick vs ClickMeter: link tracking with sales attached

ClickMagick says it began in 2014 as a simple link tracker. A Smart Link is its branded redirect link, with up to 5 sub-IDs on one link, and Starter allows two custom domains for Smart Links and Rotators. A Rotator spreads clicks from one link across several destination URLs, and ClickMagick says rotators are not designed for split testing. ClickMagick tracking features lists the rest.

Smart Links do not track conversions; ClickMagick tracks those in a Project, the place where one website's or store's traffic and conversions are tracked, with its tracking code on your pages. To tie each sale to the ad that started it, ClickMagick uses a Project and a UTM-powered URL (your landing-page URL with UTM parameters added), since it says Smart Links are not for paid ads.

ClickMagick can be tried free for 14 days from its sign-up page.

Free ClickMeter alternatives

Bitly's Free plan, with ads, has 5 links and 2 QR Codes a month; Core is $10 a month, billed annually only at $120 a year, per Bitly's page data. Rebrandly Free is $0 on its annual view, and its page says to start free and upgrade anytime. BeMob's Free plan gives 100,000 events a month with 1 month of data.
