Why bit.ly is the best URL shortener?

We all use URL shorteners to accommodate Tweets and to cloak affiliate links. I have been using bit.ly in my tweets and also to cloak my naked affiliate links.

Here are the reasons for my voting bit.ly as the best URL shortener.

Recently, I cloaked one of my affiliate links that promoted a big list of high paying affiliate programs.

I made a blog post titled "List of high paying affiliate programs" (http://onemoresales.com/2011/11/29/list-high-paying-affiliate-programs/).

Again, cross posted it here (http://income-opportunities.blogspot.com/2011/12/who-would-buy-list-of-high-paying.html).

How bit.ly tracks and monitors the performance of the URLs shortened by it:

Please view the following 5 images taken from my bit.ly account. These images report the monitoring and tracking of the shortened affiliate link bit.ly/rOEKsd

Image 1: Shows 22 clicks on the bit.ly link.







Image 2: The dates of clicks












Image 3: The source of originating clicks
















Image 4: Clicks originating countries

















Image 5: Sites that generated the clicks









BTW, so far three people have purchased the list of high paying affiliate programs.

3 sales out of 22 clicks is an excellent conversion-right?

Thank you bit.ly for a nice support!
