Link and QR Code planning
bitly-links-and-codes-planning
Give it your URLs and channels and get a full plan of titled, tagged links and QR Codes on your domain. Nothing is created until you approve it.
Turns a campaign’s destinations and channels into a matched set of Bitly links and QR Codes. Before it suggests anything, it checks your account: your preferred domain, the tags and naming you already use, how your past QR Codes are styled, and what your plan includes. Then it shows you one proposal table and waits for your OK.
Try asking
- Set up links for our fall webinar at yourbrnd.co/webinar for LinkedIn, email, and Instagram, plus a QR Code for the event flyer.
- Preview only: campaign links for our Black Friday sale across paid social, email, and SMS.
- Use our team conventions: titles start with the campaign name, and every link gets the q4-launch tag.
- Add a QR Code to the email link we made yesterday.
What you get

Good to know
- It checks back-halves against your existing links before suggesting them, and keeps channel names out of the short link. UTMs on the destination tell channels apart.
- Custom domains, custom back-halves, UTM Builder, and QR Code styling depend on your plan. It checks the current Bitly pricing page and tells you what’s included.
- If a QR Code fails after its link is created, it keeps the link and retries only the QR Code.

Try asking

Good to know

Try asking
- Clean up the links tagged spring-sale. Make the titles and tags consistent.
- Our pricing page moved from /pricing to /plans. Update every link that points to it.
- Suggest links to archive from last year’s campaigns, and tell me why.

What you get
A proposal table with current and proposed values and the reason for each change. After you approve, a per-link results table showing what was updated, already matched, skipped, or failed.
Good to know
- Archived links keep working. Archiving hides a link from most views, and printed QR Codes keep scanning.

- Changing destinations depends on your plan. It flags links with dynamic routing or QR Codes before changing where they point.
