Referrers
A referrer is the web page or domain a visitor came from before clicking your short link. It’s automatically passed by the browser and helps identify valuable partnerships or placements.
Why it matters
- Understand which sites or articles drive traffic.
- Spot uncredited mentions or backlinks.
- Validate campaign placements and publisher reports.
Limitations
Some browsers and privacy settings block referrer sharing, especially from HTTPS → HTTP or private modes. Missing referrers are often labeled “Direct.”
