I going to run a signature campaign but I am seeing that TINYURL that I am using for link tracker is blocked in this forum. May I know what is the cause?
Or any others website like TINYURL that can I use for tracking link?
Thanks in advance.

Because any link shortener is against the forum rules (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=3171.0), to avoid masking of phishing and scam links.

Anything that is link shortener is not allowed, but ad trackers are probably okay since it is not considered as link shortener, the down side is ad blockers detects it and blocked it.

Admin don't like short links at all, and one funny story from few months ago, he thought I was a scary hacker when I posted my profile in a form of short link 8)
I think they should allow at least one link shortener service in case of advertising campaigns, same like in most other forums.

It is prohibited due to security measures. Different intruders use URL shorteners for malware linking, hiding referral links and other violations, some of which can be insecure for users. Maybe admin will make an exclusion for BMs, I don't know, but I don't think any URL shorteners will become legitimate on this forum shortly. ???

I was just about suggesting the same thing to the admin, since bounty managers promote services on this forum and need to keep track of the traffic from this forum to the service they are promoting for various decision making.
But if the admin is not going to make any url shortener legal for bounty managers, then I believe there should be other ways to track traffic from this forum without having to shorten a link, maybe admin should try and feed op with an idea on how to go about this, or possibly implement a better alternative to link shorteners.

I don't really know how can it be implemented technically. Probably via some redirect page on the forum URL or something like that. I think BMs will talk about it with admin and find some solution for the benefit of us all. :)

I read the whole thread, and till now I didn't have the knowledge of how bounty managers (especially the signature runners) might work, as they definitely need to know how many users are navigating from this forum's advertising to their website, and I was wondering, other signature managers might be using this feature already as can't you take help from them.
I suggest you should ask them, as they might help you with it better then us. Or you should talk with Admin maybe he can make an exception with your case and might give you some suggestions or ideas to cover this things up.

You can just make it happen for the full link to be revealed when you hover over short link.
I agree that short links should not be added in posts, but I really don't see what's the harm in signature space, especially if they can be easily revealed without clicking.
I can even claim that having image with clickable link is arguably worse than having just a short link.

I think you can add a tracker in your side.
For example
Https://example.com/website?tracker=campaign

Good to know that, since your issue has been solved then why not to lock this thread now? I believe you should lock this thread as soon as possible so there won't be more posting on this thread. The main issue that you mentioned in the thread as been solved by you and that's why now the thread should also be locked in order to avoid any kind of spamming.

I am glad that you found a useful link to perform your task, and you did great to contact the admin in this regard. By the way I have noticed, you have also stepped into management. I am glad that we have more people doing this work, I don't know how much work would be in that, but you are doing great. I hope you can bring more projects and bigger ones.
But I hope you will find non gambling and long projects, like mixers and exchanges, wallets etc. I know such platforms don't need signature work that much, but I can hope for you. Keep making effort and one day you won't regret I have this feeling. :) You must known already why I said non gambling hahaha. ;D

I especially thought that bumping this topic would have helped other to campaign management link tracing in this atlcoinstalks forum that is why I have not locked the topic for this yet.
Anyway thanks for the reminder.

Thanks for your compliment and suggestion, I will also try on this. And I know and understand that why you said about non-gambling, actually, nowadays the work of campaign management is very competitive and that is that is why we have to do all at once.:'(
