Free analytics are available from several link-in-bio tools. ManyLinks includes views, link clicks and traffic sources for the last 30 days; Linktree and Beacons also have free analytics. The useful comparison is the history, attribution and reporting each plan includes.

ManyLinks Last 30 days; views, clicks and sources Pro adds unlimited history and UTM campaign reports

Linktree documents its history limits in Understanding your Insights. Beacons lists analytics among its free-plan features. These details were checked September 11, 2026.

The three numbers to start with

Views tell you how often your page loads. Clicks per link show which destinations attract attention. Traffic sources help explain where visitors came from when the browser provides that information.

Compare equal periods and use visitors alongside page views. A visitor can load a page or click a link several times, so clicks are not the same as people or purchases. Put the destination you want visitors to choose near the top, then check whether its share of clicks changes.

Understand attribution limits

ManyLinks recognizes referrers such as ChatGPT and Perplexity when they are supplied. It cannot identify every AI-assisted visit, and a Google referrer alone does not distinguish an AI Overview from a conventional search result.

A scanned QR code also does not automatically identify itself as print traffic. Encode a tagged URL or use a dedicated tracked destination. ManyLinks UTM campaign reports require Pro; ordinary source reporting remains available on Free.

When to upgrade

Upgrade when you need to compare campaigns beyond the free window, use UTM reports, or add other Pro features. ManyLinks displays Pro at 10.82 EUR monthly or 99.99 EUR annually; check the current upgrade page before subscribing. Unlimited history describes the plan's reporting window, rather than a promise to retain data forever.
