Hey Sumo-lings! 👋

We’ve been listening closely, and today we’re thrilled to announce enhancement to SimpleURL’s analytics dashboard that will give you even more granular control over your traffic data.

📈 What’s New?

We’ve introduced Hourly Click Tracking!

Understanding exactly when your audience engages with your links is just as important as knowing where they come from. Whether you’re launching a new email campaign, dropping a link on social media, or tracking a live event, you need to see results as they happen.

Here’s what we’ve added:

• "Today" & "Yesterday" Filters: We've added dedicated quick-select filters to your analytics dashboard. No more manually selecting dates to see your immediate performance!

• Full 24-Hour Timeline: When you select Today or Yesterday, your Clicks Trend graph now automatically transforms into a precise 24-hour hourly breakdown.

• Spot the Spikes: You can now see the exact hour your traffic spiked (all properly synced to your local timezone), allowing you to optimize your future posting schedules.

🛠️ Where to find it?

Simply head over to your SimpleURL dashboard, click on the Analytics icon for any of your Short Links, QR Codes, or Link-in-Bio pages, and select "Today" or "Yesterday" from the new dropdown right above your Clicks Trend chart!

As always, you help us shape SimpleURL into the ultimate link management tool!

Keep crushing those campaigns! 💪

Cheers, The SimpleURL Team

Hey 👋

I'm Ronak, founder of SimpleURL.

Before this, I worked with clients who ran campaigns. The link shortener they used charged $35/month — not for enterprise features, just for branded links on their own domain and analytics that went deeper than "someone clicked."

I kept thinking: it's a URL redirect and a click counter. This should not cost $35/mo.

So I built it. Not as a startup pitch — as an internal tool. Every platform either charged per seat, gated analytics behind enterprise tiers, or made domain setup a multi-day DNS headache.

That last one bothered me the most. I watched a non-technical marketing manager spend 45 minutes on a support article about CNAME records, give up, and go back to generic links. So I built an AI assistant that detects your DNS provider, generates the exact records, and walks you through setup. 60 seconds. Done.

18 months later, 4,500+ users trust SimpleURL for their branded links, QR codes, and click analytics.

Quick answers to what you're probably wondering:

🆓 Free trial? Yes — 7-day free trial with full access, no credit card required. Try before you buy.

📦 Stacking? Not needed. Each code unlocks a higher tier. Buy 1 = Solo, 2 = Pro, 3 = Agency.

📧 Support? I answer support emails personally at [email protected]. No ticket queue, no chatbot.

What makes SimpleURL different:

🤖 AI domain setup — Paste your domain → AI detects your registrar → generates DNS records → connected in 60 seconds. No other link tool does this.

📍 City-level analytics — Not just countries. See which city, device, browser, and referrer — with up to 2 years of data retention (available on tier 2 & 3).

🔗 One dashboard for everything — Branded links, dynamic QR codes, link-in-bio pages, UTM tracking, and API access. No switching between tools.

I spent four years watching marketing teams pay $200 or more per month for what amounts to a URL redirect and a click counter. Bitly, Rebrandly, and the rest keep raising prices while the core product barely changes. I built SimpleURL because branded links, QR codes, and click analytics are not premium features. They are table stakes, and they should be priced accordingly. SimpleURL started as an internal tool at my agency. We needed branded short links for client campaigns, but every platform either charged per seat, gated analytics behind enterprise tiers, or made DNS setup a multi-day headache. So I built one that does AI-assisted domain setup in under a minute, gives city-level analytics on 2 plans, and keeps 2 years of click data instead of wiping it after 4 months. It is now used by marketers, e-commerce teams, and agencies who got tired of overpaying for links. The roadmap is straightforward: deeper analytics, more automation triggers, and a public API that does not cost extra. If you have been putting off switching from your overpriced link tool because migration seemed painful, this deal removes that excuse.
