I built a simple link tracking tool because I was tired of guessing campaign results

When you're working on multiple projects or campaigns, one thing becomes obvious very quickly: We share links everywhere… but we rarely know what actually works. You post on LinkedIn. You send emails. You run ads. And then you check results… and it’s mostly assumptions. The problem I kept facing In most cases, I couldn’t clearly answer: Which post actually drove traffic? Which campaign performed better? Where are users really coming from? Yes, tools like Google Analytics exist, but setting things up properly (especially UTMs) is either: too manual inconsistent or just skipped And when you're moving fast, you don’t want that friction. So I built something simple I decided to build a small tool for myself. Nothing over-engineered. Just something practical. The idea was simple: Create short links quickly Attach UTM parameters easily Track clicks in real time See actual traffic sources without digging That’s how ShortIQ started. 👉 You can check it here: https://shortiq.io
