Every marketing campaign usually carries with it a link that redirects recipients to dedicated landing pages. Tracking these clicks and attributing them to customers can offer deeper insights into the effectiveness of the campaign. With link tracking, Freshmarketer enables marketers to choose links of interest that need to be tracked in a campaign or journey email. 


Link tracking can be implemented in Email Campaigns, Journey Emails, and Transactional Emails.

  2. On your campaigns page, click to create a campaign of your choice. Follow these steps to configure the campaign.

  3. In the design page of your campaign, add a link of your choice.

    Click to move to the review section of your campaign.
