question
Does HubSpot automatically shorten links if you include them in your posts?
answer
Yes. By default, HubSpot shortens all links, when they publish, to "hubs.ly" links. While some social media sites track multiple interactions with a post/tweet as a click, HubSpot only tracks direct clicks to the shortened URL. In the past, HubSpot relied on bit.ly for its link shortening. These URLs were "hub.am" links. These URLs will continue to function and track clicks. As an alternative to HubSpot's link shortener, you can purchase a vanity domain through bit.ly and connect to HubSpot. A link you include in the Social Publishing tool will be automatically shortened to a 22-character tracking URL. The 140-character limit for Twitter posts counts for URLs, so if you are including a link, your effective character limit is 118. Images count as links for this purpose, so including an image will use 22 characters.
