    Short.io or Dub.co, both way more generous than Bitly’s free tier now. Dub especially has solid free analytics with source, geo, and device. Bigger thing you mentioned, though, clients not understanding the reports, that’s the harder problem. Most tools dump data on them when they really just need a sentence telling them what the numbers mean. I pair tracking with a short monthly plain-English summary, and that clears up more confusion than any fancier tracker ever has.
