No doubt there are other programs which can do the tasks, perhaps even more efficiently. But I find the resulting plugin numbers more handy than what other analytics program I have seen provide. We can always try these programs and see if they meet our requirements I suppose. Cheers. You have a point there, Rich.

Maybe not. I don't do a lot of that. :) Hmmm… wouldn’t you get that anyway with whatever analytics program you’re using? Maybe not. I don’t do a lot of that. :)

For the extra work, you get the benefit of keeping track of the number of times the URL has been clicked which is very useful and handy information in a campaign. Rich – Thanks for the feedback.

The post mentions certain advantages this approach has over the short url plugin, including being automatically generated by WordPress and easy to build into your theme (for clickable "tweet me" buttons, for example).
