Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ClickMeter.io
Getting Started
What is ClickMeter.io?
ClickMeter.io is a link tracking and analytics platform that helps you understand how your links perform. Create short, branded URLs and track every click with detailed analytics.
How do I get started?
Simply create a free account.
You'll choose your permanent account slug (like yourname),
which becomes part of all your links: clickmeter.io/yourname/link
Do I need a credit card to sign up?
No! Our free plan doesn't require a credit card. You can create an account and start tracking links immediately. You'll only need a credit card when upgrading to Pro.
Can I change my account slug later?
No, your account slug is permanent. This ensures your links remain consistent and trustworthy. Choose carefully during registration! We recommend using your brand name, personal name, or business name.
Links & URLs
How do I create a tracked link?
After logging in, click "Create New Link" in your dashboard. Enter your destination URL and choose
a memorable slug. Your full URL will be clickmeter.io/yourname/yourslug
Can I edit my links after creating them?
Yes! You can:
- Change the destination URL anytime
- Rename the link slug (old slug becomes an alias that redirects)
- Pause/activate links
- Delete links entirely
What happens when I rename a link?
When you rename a link, the old URL automatically becomes an alias that redirects to the new URL. This means previously shared links won't break – they'll just redirect to your new slug.
Are there any restrictions on destination URLs?
We don't allow links to malware, phishing sites, or illegal content. All links must comply with our Terms of Service. We may remove or disable links that violate our policies.
Can I use custom domains?
Not yet, but it's on our roadmap! For now, all links use the clickmeter.io domain
with your unique account slug.

How accurate is the click tracking?
Very accurate! We track every click in real-time. However, like all analytics platforms, we may occasionally filter out bot traffic or spam clicks to keep your data clean.
