You may already aware, goo.gl is one of the popular link shortening services hosted by
Google, available on the internet since long time.
Unlike other link shortening services, goo.gl’s statics are public.
Means, anybody can access into any shorten link’s Data for,
i. Age of the link.
ii. Destination of the link.
iii. Number of clicks.
iv. Referrers (Traffic Sources)
v. Browsers.
vi. Countries.
vii. Platforms.
How to access into this Data?
Example goo.gl link: - http://goo.gl/e9kqiX
Take the tail part (e9kqiX ) of the shorten link and add into the following URL, paste the
whole link into the address bar of the Browser and go.
http://goo.gl/#analytics/goo.gl/e9kqiX/all_time
OK,
You got it.
Next,
How to use this Data for own marketing purposes?
OK,
Here’s the process….
1. Open Google search, Type your niche keywords + goo.gl on the search box and search for
different date ranges such as “past hour”, past 24 hours”, “past week”……
As an example,
If you’re selling a “weight loss” product, [weight loss + goo.gl]
2. Collect all the goo.gl short URLs available.
3. Grab tails, check them one by one and note down traffic sources (referrers).
4. Visit sources and take appropriate action exclusive for the each resource.
Hope it helps
