Good tip on adding the ‘+’ to the end. Thanks! To anyone wondering, adding the plus (when logged in to Bitly) displays an info page with the referrers (refererers) and locations by country.

And where the link goes to, obviously. No idea if this counts toward the Bitly link open rate.

My pleasure! Two tiny points

1) don’t need to be logged in for the + to work

2) I’ve not seen it increment the clicks by visiting the + stats page, but can’t speak authoritatively on that.
