See Which Social Links Earn Attention
Use a distinct short link for each post, profile, or channel to compare click activity without overstating last-click engagement as conversion attribution.

Compare social link engagement without overstating attribution
A distinct short link for each social profile, post, story, or campaign gives you a practical way to compare recorded click activity. It is especially useful when several placements lead to the same destination and the native platform does not provide a consistent cross-channel view.
s.id does not currently assign first-touch, last-touch, or multi-touch conversion credit. Referrer values may also be missing when an app or privacy control does not send them. Treat the link result as an attention signal, then use downstream analytics for leads, purchases, and attributed conversion.
Start With the Signal, Then Add the Context
Create separate links for posts, profiles, and channels
Compare click and estimated unique visitor trends
Review available referrer data on paid plans
Use downstream analytics when conversion attribution is required
How It Works
- 1
Choose the social unit
Decide whether each platform, profile, creative, or individual post needs a separate measurable link.
- 2
Create and label the links
Use recognizable names and keep the destination consistent when the goal is a fair channel comparison.
- 3
Share within one measurement window
Record publishing dates and compare periods that account for different platform lifecycles.
- 4
Connect attention to outcomes elsewhere
Use destination analytics or campaign parameters to evaluate what visitors do after opening the link.
Make social comparisons useful
The strongest analysis separates what s.id records from what the social platform or destination records.
Do not rely on referrer alone
In-app browsers and privacy settings can suppress or change recorded referrer information.
Keep a placement map
Document which link appeared in each profile, post, story, or ad before the campaign starts.
Use downstream conversion data
A click shows attention; it does not establish revenue or full customer-journey attribution.
Frequently Asked Questions about s.id Analytics
No. You can compare activity from distinct links and review available referrer data, but first-touch, last-touch, and multi-touch conversion models are not part of the current link analytics dashboard.
