284. Why use a shortened URL (as a D.I.Y. Rock Star)? Video Description

Inspired by https://www.cyberprmusic.com/musicians-guide-to-using-bitly/ and by https://blog.hootsuite.com/what-are-url-shorteners/
As a D.I.Y. Rock Star, you will LIKELY find it necessary to share links to your music and your merch. Wouldn’t it be great if you could tell how many folks are clicking on the links from Instagram or from Twitter or from wherever? And wouldn’t it be great to also name each link, so that it’s easy to tell which link is for which song? Well, that’s JUST what you will be able to do, if you use a URL shortener.
