Cheaper Alternatives to Bitly Enterprise

Bitly is the most popular shortening service on the market. You can shorten, customize and manage URLs with Bitly.

However, is Bitly worth the cost? Only basic features, which help to save some time, are included in the cheapest price plan. The advanced features require more.

Pricing (as of May 21st, 2019):

Bitly provides users with a 30-day free trial.
A free price plan allows users to:

  • Customize a slug and link.
  • Use own domain.
  • Edit title tag.
  • Observe statistics.
  • Integrate with social networks.
  • Use Google Chrome extension.

However, each free feature has a note. For example, the statistics are deleted every 30 days. You need to have advanced tech skills to add a custom domain, and you can’t edit an original URL. Link data may be checked by anyone by adding “+” to the end of your bitlink.
