Hyperlink for Chrome

If your daily job revolves around posting content on social media, then user reach and involvement are relevant statistics you might and should take into account.

Of course, there’s are some comprehensive online tools out there that can help you with the statistics, however, if your question is as simple as “are people clicking my link?,” then you might want to check out Hyperlink.

In short, Hyperlink is a straightforward analytics tool of sorts that relies on a web-app, two mobile apps (for iOS and Android), and a Google Chrome extension to help you to effortlessly create links and receive push notifications if, when, and from where people click your links.

To be more precise, the Google Chrome extension acts mostly as a more complex link shortener, while your mobile devices will eventually be the place where you receive the said notifications when your links are clicked on.

In order to get started with Hyperlink for Chrome, just deploy the extension from the Chrome Web Store directly onto your browser and the designated mobile platforms for your smartphones. Next, you need to create a Hyperlink account needed to synchronize the data between your multiple devices.

The extension itself is pretty easy to use: simply add the link in the designated field, and click the “Create Hyperlink!” button from under it. Once a link is created, it will appear in the lower part of the extension’s GUI from where you can also easily copy, edit, and test the link.

There’s also a fourth option that allows you to view the reach for your link. For example, by clicking the “Analytics” button, you are provided with a set of useful information such as when did someone click the link and from what location, as well as the number of clicks the link has received today and the day before.

Hyperlink aims to be a valid and reliable tool for users who are required to share a lot of content online. Of course, it does not aim to replace comprehensive analytics platforms that surely offer way more details in regards to how users interact with the links you share, but it does allow you to see in real time if your links are clicked or not.
